Tinned Reef

wanted to add this nice statement to my reef keeping

"Careful neglect" is something more of us should do. Chasing numbers and tweaking chemistry is harder on corals than most of what we put them through. I've lost more colonies from running various forms of phosphate removers than I have from not testing at all. Meaning, I've never lost corals from high PO4 levels.
 
Some more late nite pics ..







Now palmers Blue milli Under whites only and then Whites and blues and then blues only .. one of my fav Pieces ..





 
I recently started doing this with dosing. Every 2-3 days I'll check cal, alk and phos. I keep a small notebook that I write down the day, amount dosed and current levels.
