Hey Donk! Your Aussie tank looks pretty good. You are certainly doing it right. You Must have a secret weapon.
No secret weapon ken lol. Maybe lucky I guess. I have had my problems believe me I heard about your setup and your coral look great. Everyone on here I’ve seen looks great I’m just sorry I didn’t participate on here sooner we can all help each other if I know anything worth while I’ll tell. I have a habit of experimenting. Now I’m trying Elos pro skimmer and omega but almost through 90ml and haven’t noticed much. Next is koralcolor. I have used mark Weiss and have been happy with that.
simple clean water, correct chemistry and just enough food is the ticket. dont get additive happy, you know one of those guys that has to add everything until the tank gets polluted. simple and clean and healthy. thats the ticket.
Definitely I’m gonna add some silicate remover tomorro to try to get rid of the red algae on the sand bed. Can’t be anything else it all zero or trace. Also I’ll have to post a pic of the awesome Monti rock you made. The one from premium.

Dunk, you said you use Marc Weiss product. What did you use and what for?
I used the coral vital and reef something. They’re all the same. Also used the lsb booster. I’m still using black powder but it’s old. When I feed coral i mix a bunch of stuff and target feed.
Thanks Dunk. I know not many people uses Weiss product that much. And I was just trying to see if you or anyone else had any success with those product.
When I added it it caused my Kenya tree to reproduce I may even go back to it. I didn’t have sps back then i want to see I it helps Sps. It’s a bunch of vitamins and nutrients. Not sure if it has po4 so that’ll be something to test. Hanna checker makes it easy lol.
I think reef vital DNA was the best?
Tank looks awesome! Nice job…
