Nothing has changed since my last update.

I will certainly keep this thread updated as things change. :)

Lockpick

Hey Xenon,

  We need some update pics of your tank with that awesome looking fish you got. Plus I want to see all the new stuff your nano tank has and is doing.

Thanks

Thanks for the reminder.

I will take some pics very soon.

I just recently hooked up my dosing pump to automatically dose alkalinity to the tank and added some SPS frags.  :)

I use an automatic 4 pump dosing system by Fauna Marin that I use for my reef system. I only use 3 out of 4 pumps for calcium, alkalinity and magnesium so I decided to use the 4th pump to dose alk for the nano.

Took me a few mins to run a line to the tank. I am only dosing 1ml/day but I expect that demand will increase as the corals grow.
