Both Zeo Tanks and lights are 2 months old.

Net Volume 150g 8 - T-5 and 1 Radium 250w Mogul

This is the tank with the really nasty stuff on the rocks. This tank has been setup for 10 months like the other one. I used rocks and water from my original store systems after we closed.

I added another 60g tank and plumbed it into the 100g tank about 2 months ago. When I first set it up, the agae really started to take of in the new tank but not that bad in the orginal 100g. I got the newer tank cleaned and fixed about 2 weeks ago and the original 100g took a turn for the worse. I noticed that I do not have coralline in the 100g part of the sytem but a lot of coralline taking of in the 60g part of the system???

I have only dosed start 6 times in the last 14 days as I also assumed a start OD.

Start2 New Version 10 drops 2 X a day
Zeobak 6 drops 2 X a week
Zeofood 3 drops 2 X a week


Net Volume 320g

(This is the tank with the eggcrate pics) 9 - 250w Radium Mogul

The only thing different I did was dose Sponge Power. When I dosed the recomended drops it seemed fine. When loaded the tank with ml dosing it really lightned the colors with a Spur2 effect....Is it possible that SP had a little contribution?

Start2 New Version 24 drops 2 X a day
Zeobak 12 drops 2 X a week
Zeofood 6 drops 2 X a week
