Thank you guys, I may buy another dosing unit and test out trying nitrate dosing since my tank is very small and struggle to keep up with nutrients for corals to grow. I throw in reefenergy randomly at different doses and just watch how the algea on a dead coral grows, so it’s very inconsistent

Starting to takeoff

That’s a nice one, I tried one once and it didn’t last at all dried up and detached. Reguardless of all the other corals I can go that one wasn’t one. I need to get my hand on a naturally split tank raised.

Where did you get the bounce from?

In the end, it’s better to just throw them on the rocks and let them encrust and grow on there. They will grow a lot faster instead of battling each other on the frag rack, trust me I know, now my frags are to top heavy to get them to stay on wet rock...

That orange passion looks greattt!!

I read a study in r2r that when you ship out water for the icp tests the phosphate numbers would change in the bottle in shipping so I would always take the icp results with a little bit of skepticism.

I throw about 4 ml of reef energy to a 29biocube everyday and my nitrates and phosphates don’t budge at all. But I would assume at some point a a breaking point may be reached and when the levels rise they will rise fast so be careful with it.

Welcome Chris! I’m in Toms River/brick if you ever need a hand with anything!

I may be down in your area Saturday if you aren’t up here in the meantime.

Plan on having it a mixed reef or mainly lps and softies?

It’s amazing the amount of an impact something as simple as sand can have on an aquarium, not only does it colonies thousands of bacteria on each end, it helps bind up phosphates and nitrates, so removing it once a system has gotten used to the bio load, alters it a lot.

Where are you Located?

For free my guy, as long as I can grow it lol it’s free to you guys

I have some in brick that I can prune for ya.

Also the pocillipora has long polpys when they are happy so it tends to shade the lower/deeper branches so now that the tops or them aren’t extended all the way you get to see the deeper unhappy branch.

Is that softy contacting it at all?

Happen to have a full tank shot and what are your lights on, and kind of lights.

Yeah deff not getting stung by the monti. It seems like the growth rings are more of the greener that I was hoping it was. Has your nutrients fluctuated lately? My green stunner will turn brown if it’s not getting the light it wants, yours may be getting too much or too little light. The growth...

Is anything near it that pissed it off? Was it always a brown color or more of a green color?
