Really happy with the way things are looking! Parameters are really settling out. Nitrites are down to truly zero and the addition of the chaeto (in a cheap HOB fuge with cheap LED grow lights) has gotten the nitrates down from 30 to 10. Dosing with the BRS mag/ca/alk additives has gotten those up to good healthy numbers finally as well. The corals are loving it! I'm seeing fast growth on the blasto merletti and acans especially. The poor favia that got fried by the echinata when it fell on it is actually not only recovering, but doing so FAST and getting its yellow highlights back already. I'm just really pleased with it all right now! This weekend I'll finish getting my new (to me) lights hung on the conduit mounts I made and will pick up a couple frags I bought from a local reefer too.
