      6 Months after my tank crash!!!

      As many of you remember my last post.
      http://www.sandiegoreefs.com/forums/...ank&highlight=

      My whole system crash 6 months ago, "long story." Anyways finaly got the time and money to restart it back up.
      I'm still new to REEF so still looking for a lot of help here on the forum.
      So in the water testing I still don't know much about it. NO2, NO3, NO4, PO4, ALK, Cal- all of this I know just what number it should be in, but getting it to be the number it should be is a question mark for me....

      This is the the test I got after a month of cycle.
      Alk - 9.1 dKH
      Cal - 470ppm
      NO2 - 0 ppm (Ammonia)
      NO3 - 5 ppm (Nitrates)
      NO4 - 0 mg/L (Nitrites)
      PO4 - 0.50 ppm (Phosphate) This is always up and down. How do you maintan it to be under 0.50ppm
      ph - 8.13
      Mg - 1200 ppm (Magnesium)
      Salinity - 1.025

      1 month from cycle. Artwork time. Redone the rocks. Rocks is just setting on top, no glue or any kind of support.

      Thanks, I have a cover on top the tank. No fish will jump out. The only fish going to the pan is the one didn't make it tank.lol
      I'll have some picture of the sump and plumbing up soon.
      I'm still in need for a refugium. I think am going to build one soon.
