Some new pics, vinegar dosing results ??

[qwik]

In this pic you can see the blue color starting to appear on a few branches . This started with vinegar dosing . I also dose amino and fuel but have always done this so I am going to give vinegar the credit.

You can see in this pic two new eflos I just picked up . One has a nice purple tip and i think i can get it all that way. The other has a nice yellow tint to it.

This is just a tank pic of my little frags. I know i will have trouble with them growing into eachother but thats the look i want. I am going for a tight overcrowded reef snd letting nature decide,unless it decides against me,lol.

Very nice. I have had similar experience with my softies and zoas. A devil hand coral would not extend any polyps and after dosing vinegar it looks great. Same with some other unknown leather. Even my zoas are brighter and open more/

What dosage are you at now? Currently doing 40ml and my skimmer is pulling some really smelly gunk.

I was at 40ml daily but Nitrates jumped back up; Nitrates were lower at 20ml daily. I went on RC and spoke with Randy Holmes who suggested I drop the dosage down and increase my GFO. This weekend I will swap out my GFO. I think a more efficient skimmer would make a world of difference so am saving up for that.

I am at 6 ml vinegar on 70 gal total volume but am still adding .5 every week until it starts to become negative .
If you look in the center of the last pic youcan see some crazy color and polyp extension on a belinni. It never had this hippie freek hairdo before the dose .
You can also see one of my best finds .it is in the last pic toward the lower right . The dark purple with redish highlites. I bought this as tan with a purple hint . Its base actually has some green shimmer and red polyps . Is very slow in my system so I just sent a piece to dnov's finishing school to see what it does under the right supervision,lol.

I was at 20ml and bump it to 40ml with no ill effect so far. I have about 100gl total. No algae breakout yet. My nitrate was a little lower will have to check it tomorrow to see where it's at but your tank is look good. I just posted a video of mine in the tale of the tank. Critic is appreciated.
