    Brilliant video yet again mate, lucid reefs 3d printed products are amazing, I love his work, its made a big difference to the look of your tank having the level up a bit, the new mushrooms are really nice!
    I used the Aptasia x in my tank and it worked well but I did only have one, be interesting to see how you get on with the Nudis.
    I think If you were to increase the lights a bit then the zoas would look incredible!! Would be great to see the tank under blues again if possible, I bet it really pops!
    Looking forward to seeing the next update on this tank! 👍

    • @NanoTankReefer
      @NanoTankReefer  3 роки тому

      Top work from Lucid! Fits like a glove and completely changes the look of the tank. I'm really happy with the mod.
      I'm increasing lighting 2-3% per week until I hit 35%. I'll give it a week or 2 after and see how they are looking. I've also just realised I have a salinity issue 🙈 I've gotten so used to having the Profilux 4 monitoring my main tank I have overlooked the most basic requirement in my nano 😂
      I'll dedicate some blue time for the next update. I always forget 🤦🏻‍♂️

    you can weave a black zip tie through the overflow openings then snip the ends to raise the water level in the tank. I did it months ago. free option for anyone interested

      I've tried peps in my reefer bud and they don't touch the aiptasia. Unfortunately I think I've left it too late to keep on with killing them individually 😭 for every 1 I kill I find 2 more a week later. I just want to eradicate them for good now

    The reason your order was so low, is because your pump is a lower gallon per hour. I can’t remember what pump you put on there but I have the Sicce 1.5 and mine is close to top

      Yeah I've heard of using vinegar, being such a small tank I'm at risk of a big dip in pH using vinegar. It's very acidic, I'll keep killing off the odd few I see until I source some berghia nudibranch
