    Running a Reef Octopus 150 on my 75. Every time I feed frozen the cup fills with wet foam in like 10 minutes and sometimes spills over. Rest of the day its fine…

    ↳ Live View on a nano, any tips for glare?
    Turn the room lights off and hold the phone right up to the glass, almost touching. Most of the glare goes away.

    ↳ Alk dropping almost 1 dKH overnight?
    What test are you using? Hanna checkers can drift if the reagent is old. I'd confirm with a second kit before changing anything.

    ↳ 40 breeder build, finally started
    Looking clean. Post pics once the rock is in.

    Grabbed a smart plug for like 12 bucks and set a feeding schedule. No more mess. Also turned the air intake down a hair and it runs a little drier now.

    ↳ Brown dust all over the sand 3 weeks in, did I mess up?
    Yep thats diatoms. Totally normal for a new tank, pretty much everyone gets it. It goes away on its own once the silicate gets used up. Grocery store RO can have silicate in it though, so worth testing that water or getting your own unit eventually.
