yeah, just getting PTSD of AEFW, pretty sure im out of the woods but just giving it a few more weeks.
I got it from @Juano908, he was kind enough to give me a booger sized one awhile back before he brokedown his tank. it grew well.
random shots..
things are going well but I'm still scared to glue anything on the rocks. lol I'm also planning on setting up a lowboy in the next few weeks.
35ppt salinity
7.5 -8.5 dkh
calcium, last time I checked was around 400ppm
mag - haven't tested in a long time but from last time I checked I was within 1280ppmish or so.
nitrates 5-20ppm (I dont chase this and usually get better colors when nitrate is present)
po4 0.05 -.12 (I don't chase this...
those colors are very much real but with help from filters and a bit of saturation/hue/contrast adjustments. overall coral health will get you those colors. Blue spectrum lighting bring out more of these type of colors.

never knew you were a chiropractor Mark, might have to look you up when I get my vaccine shots. been trying to look up a chiro since last year after I had a weird thing happen to my shoulder. eventually went away but I always felt like it would be good to visit a chiro just to make sure...
do you have a more accurate number for your po4? seems a tad high for me if its sitting around 1ppm. Nitrates looks fine to me, anywhere between 5-10 is where i reach for but i don't worry if its a tad higher. I wouldn't add nitrates or po4 right now.
trying my luck to see if anyone is selling a 80 Gallon Rimless Seapora/Deep Blue Frag tank or ZooMed Low boy. I'm thinking of expanding my tank. checked LFS and most are out of stock.
let me know!

BC AQUATICMAN
CHERRY BOMB
PC RAINBOW

also, anyone...
Insane, bought my very first yellow tang for $20. I know the closing of Hawaii is driving up prices but even before that, prices have just been steadily increasing.
