Since the addition of more feedings/ adding reef energy because my nitrates are 0 the pink lemonade which has done nothing is starting to grow. Here is a 2 week growth change from November to December.

Just throwing my 2 cents in. While there are reefs and some calcium carbonate building corals off our coast. I for sure would not think about putting our water in a tank with corals I have spent hundreds of dollars on a frag. In college I had learned about sediment masking and since our beaches...

Hopefully 2021 brings a house into my future and then the bigger tank will come. I have my old 75 gallon tank and full setup in my fathers basement so I will end up turning that into a frag tank. Keep the biocube as a visual inspection tank/ qt and then a water box as the show tank.

That toadstool is the size of my tank

Fts

Found a less bright one. As long as you got nutrients the 9 would be great :)

What is your zip?

Mark when I used to have my old 75 gallon tank which I was able to feed heavily, my alk would sit at 9 and stuff grew like crazy. I used to have my pictures on a friends photobucket. However we can’t figure out how to access the pictures anymore but the tank exploded with coral growth at 9dkh.

I have never dealt with red slime in my display ever. In all my tanks it would be present in my fuge but never ever touched the display. It was weird I guess the flow was always too much. My rocks get blasted to where I don’t think bacteria can even colonize on it. I remember an old old reefer...

I would prefer to have big fish who crap a lot but I don’t have a skimmer on the tank so exporting the dissolved organics only happens with my water changes so for now I am making small changes with tiny fish that make tiny crap :)

My tank only has a target mandarin, two small clowns and an azure damnsel. The fish were getting a few pellets once a day backs then. Now I have been adding 1 ml of reef energy, a cube of mysis and a saltifert measuring spoon of reef roids. And my phosphates haven’t budged lol

I have a 29 biocube with a massive amount of rock in the tank, so honestly the amount of water in the tank is prob 20 gallons. I keep my alk 7.7 to 8.1 and I do 6 gallon water changes with reefcrystals and the corals do not give a hoot with the rise in alk. I have always used reef crystals and...

If only this coral would grow up it may be nice. I have no idea what it could be tho.

Thanks for the kind words guys. For the first time every I have tested my nitrates and astonishing, my cube has not a lick of nitrates so I have been trying to feed just a tad bit more everyday with the addition of reef energy to help boost it up.

Traded for a nice piece of a confetti acro today, and also walked away with a voodoo magic.

What’s the name of the last acro?

I wish the whole Colony was detachable so I could bring it up to the light and spin it around.

I don’t think it’s reaching for more light, I am sure the xr15 is plenty of piercing light for it. Just seems super happy and fluffy to me getting comfy with the flow.

I started with a tricolor nana many many years ago as my first sps and I swear that thing was brown for about a year and a half under t5. It encrusted a lot and then when I switched to halides and vhos it turned into the nicest colony in the tank. Sometimes the easy cheap ones turn into...

There is the momma. When it comes to corals I’m a bit of a hoarder. My nice ones always have backup colonies.
