Hi All, I have made some small changes and thought it was time for a photo update.
I have reinstalled a reactor with GFO & carbon .
Going to replace both approx once a fortnight (GFO should last longer than that)
Also started to put a lot more emphasis on trace elements such as Potassium , Iron , iodine ect.. to try and get my pink Acros pink again 
For some reason I can keep blues, purples, green ...but pinks are doing my head in ...except my pick birds nest , that is pink.
The other thing I have been thinking of is going Zeovit but the difficulty in getting the stuff is putting me off.

Also just about to make the change to a calcium reactor (once I get the courage to change)
Thanks for viewing!!

Sorry Mr Fuge , there is a lot of photos.

Thanks Lesley ,I am old school i siphon it every week, also keep a Tunze pump at the back wall blowing everything to the front so it doesn’t settle at the back.

looks good but if you want better colour go zeovit. You wouldn't need any gfo and changing it every 2 weeks sounds like a bitch.
Its not difficult to get your hands on. There are many online suppliers and williamstown and reeflections have some on hand and can always do special orders which take only a few days.

Thats a very healthy looking tank!
Just on the zeo stuff. It's super easy to get online and delivered to your door in a couple of days.
