I have finally gone a few weeks with a params stable and it is showing in the corals in my tank. I will be changing my T5's over the next couple weeks so we will see what that does if anything. My params are as follows. I check far to much to list them all here. Overall this is where they are as their has very little to no fluctuation. Alk 8.3 - 8.5 Calc 410 Mag 1320 No3 0 - trace Po4 0 - .02 Temp 77. - 78. Potassium 400 First pic taken under Blue+ T5's & RB leds. Second pic taken under all T5's & RB leds. ![](uploads/5378/20170205_110805.jpg)

Is Dennis the only one with a frag still left? That would be total blasphemy! ![](smileys/smiley1.gif) Dennis it is putting out a skirt again so that's a nice change.

Yeah I can't believe I haven't killed it. I'm changing my bulbs so there is still a chance.

Mine is still being eaten by my blenny. More so when I forget to feed. This picture is in equal white to blue. ![](uploads/2018/20170207_200905.jpg) No tests recently.

![](uploads/5714/2-07-17_FragGrowout_sm.jpg) 1/22/17 Po4 - 0.10 SG - 1.026 Mg - 1360 Ca - 420 KH - 9.5 2/5/17 No3 - 4 Po4 - 0.05 SG - 1.026 Mg - 1300 Ca - 395 KH - 9.5 Just for Dennis I tested Nitrate this last weekend. ![Wink Wink](smileys/smiley2.gif) It was a bit higher than expected, but not too terrible given the increase in feeding since I got the new wrasses. -Dave
