I've been wanting to update this log a little more frequently instead of letting it slide for a month. Everything is doing well. Still have a bit of red slime algae. Not sure what it's from, PO4 and NO3 are 0. Thinking my RO/DI was the cause, I got to change out some prefilters and put in new resin today. Was making 3-4 tds water, now making 0-1 tds water. The resin was old too. Guess it still works. I've been making water for about 12 hrs. and have about 30 gallons to show for it. That's reasonable considering the water pressure is only about 40psi. Hopefully the water change with better source water will help. Gotta keep on top of that a little better I guess.


To the pics for those who don't like to read

A couple more....

Another of my wheeler getting a little more comfy, more yellow in the bands this time. He's starting to eat anything that sinks....frozen mysis, brine, spirulina pellets, and regular old pellets. Here he is:



And one of my hammer coral hosting my occ clown. The hammer is still a bit bleached, but starting to make a comeback, a little pink and green can be seen.
