October 8, 200520 yr Author comment_69479 It was crystal clear actually steve. dont think that comment was necessary. I was quite surprised. Clearest I have seen for awhile. Report
October 9, 200520 yr comment_69483 It can be crystal< Its the run off from the land eg lots of rain, I advise people to wait 3 days after heavy rain. Report
October 9, 200520 yr comment_69485 Yeah agree completely. Clarity of the water has nothing to do with the run off from the land when it rains. Pie Report

October 11, 200520 yr Author comment_69884 Sorry for the Delay Wasp....been real busy... All good with the family! Been a doosey though. Report
October 11, 200520 yr Author comment_69889 BEEN BUSY.....!!!! I'm really stoked with the background colour...Its called "Cobalt"...looks exactly like the Ocean IMO. I've installed full perimeter 12mm overspill glass and Aluminium slide rails for the Hallides. These can be slid along the entire length depending on coral requirements etc. Water parameters ok.... but still a little murky...just added carbon...skimmer coming soon. should be clear tomorrowish. Ammonia 0 Nitrite 0 Nitrate .05 Po4 0.15 Managed to catch my Sailfin...so I got something to look at!! Will add friends when skimmer has cleaned nutrients completely. (Water still has Tanins). Its taken around 5 hours to fine tune my DERSO to exactly match return feed flow. Overflow level is now 10mm below tank level and is nice and quiet. Report
