Frag Contest Check-In 11/15/16

This is the best picture I could get since the frag is at the back and near the bottom of the tank

Tests conducted on 17 Nov, 2016 using Red Sea test kits.  Last tested maybe 2-3 months ago, been lazy.

Phosphate: ~.26ppm (color somewhere between .16 and .36)

Nitrate: 2ppm (has been 0 for a few months but I recently started up an auto feeder and I set it for too many times a day to start out, cut it back to once daily for now.)

Alkalinity: 9.0 dKH (targeting 9.0 dKH, this test is the only one that has actually been at target alk.)

Magnesium: 1440ppm (target 1380, going to dial doser back a smidge.)

Calcium: 290ppm (target 420, this is the sort of thing that happens when your lazy and don’t test often enough.  Bumped the doser up a few ml per day and I dosed as much as I dare in one day, will check and dose again in a few days)

Salinity: 1.024 (target 1.025, slowly added a salty slurry to the sump to get back up to target.)

Food: LRS Reef Frenzy daily for nearly a year, target feed mysis ~monthly to corals.  Started Aquatic Dreams Reef Yum-Yum around a month ago, fed it twice so far. 

Going to go ahead and add everything I couldnt remember the day of registration.
