Updates:
- Setup new RO filter (PSI 020B 4 Stage. Swapped over pressure solenoids and in-line TDS from old unit)

- Bought Arlec Wifi Board + InkBird wifi Temp controller and added another heater for redundancy

- Bought a Sicce Syncra 1.5 to run the Pac Sun AR-S for chaeto + UV steriliser. Yet to setup

- Finally bought test kits after nearly 7 months and picked up Tropic Marin Balling Lite salts off a mate. A little unsure if I should setup the Libra doser now since Vertex have folded. Few horror stories from overseas involving system software glitch and pump no.2 dumping all liquid. Does anyone know if it is possible to install a drip valve solenoid at the end of the line?

- Gave away the bangaii and acquired a 2-3cm platinum and picasso clown pair.

- Purchased three new Gonioporas, fungia, red digi + birdsnest and an orange morph.

- Clowns in our other setup have started breeding. Now culturing L-strain rotifers + phytoplankton. Had a crack at raising the first batch. Didn’t go too well as eggs were pulled to early, they hatched over several nights and lost a considerable amount due to ammonia spike from fouled eggs. Have another batch of eggs upcoming so will pull the pot on Day 10 now.

- toying with setting up a co2 scrubber for the skimmer inlet. Anyone know where I can source sofnolime in South West Syd?
