Major Change To Scape.
So 1 week ago i placed the blocks into a bucket of tank water (from water change).
I tested all the parameters that i have test kits for.
KH, PH, calc, mag, nitrate, phos, nitrite and ammonia.
There was nothing different from my own tank water. So I took the plunge.
Its been 2 days now. SPS and other corals had polyp extension straight away.
Fish swam and normal even picking at the rock.
Tested water again today, everything normal and sill healthy.
I was REALLY surprised to see no phos!
Even though i had always praised myself on a clean tank i was shocked at how filthy it was when rocks were moved. They are real garbage collectors.
60% of the live rock has been moved to the sump and i will slowly remove most piece by piece.
The sand bed will seed the concrete and also having a zeovit system i imagine that when i pump the stones more bacteria will be released and they will start to colonise the concrete.
I am also so impressed with the zeovit system. My sps is sooo bright and happy even the stags i got from
@Buddy have come back to life more than ever and growth is crazy.
The zeo supplements i use are,
sponge power for a healthy system 3 drops every second day.
coral vitalizer 4 drops 3 times a week
and amino acid 4 drops twice a week.
pohls extra 2 ml twice a week.
I am surprised that this has been enough to get the blue to really come through. I have had a few sps frags for a while that have never had colour maybe a brown green. Cant believe they turned out to be blue or a purple green.
Anyone getting into zeovit will be totally surprised how many corals are hiding behind a brown skin.
Not sure on the sand bed display. its very pixie garden lol
