    ATP's 120 Gallon Oceanic Tech Tank

    The canopy helped a lot. From 90 degrees went to 82 overnight. Added a few fans and now its maintaing at 78 :) Ph-8.2 KH-8 CA-460 ish Mg-1160 - buffers so now just waiting for the corals to color up. The tips of some of the SPS has a little color now, but still slower than I expected.

    The canopy is actually allready down. Temperature is maintaing at 80-82. Going to add a few more fans at the sump and one more at the top and that should help maintaing 80 degrees at most.

Tank size is a 125 with a 40 breeder...

    Hair Algae (what else can I try)

    I always pull of the algae using a 1/8 hose (I think..its the smallest one) and a plastic tube/pipe thing stuck to it. So while doing water changes, I just pull them off with the help of the small pipe tube thing and the algae than gets automaticly pulled and sucked into the bucket :) It's...
