      im not sure it is.. I've turned my fixture down to the point where other corals (zoas) are reaching for the sky, when they're halfway up in the tank. Something about LED's has always caused my chalices and acans to recede a bit.. Dunno...I blame Obama.

      actually I wouldnt say they melt, they're just very susceptible to infection, and extremely sensitive to dipping.

    2. esacjack

      esacjack

      yeah but the odd thing is, it never touched coral before that day. odd.

  14. Someone once said "A true artist is never finished.." Does that mean reefing is an art form? :)

      I had a Jacksons for a long time until he finally died of old age. Do you keep them anymore?

      I do not. At one time I probably had over 100 then I worked for a rescue in LA where we would periodically get confiscations of 100-300

      Maybe one day I will get another one :P

      I'm surprised it doesn't happen more often. That's why I never wanted to run several hundred watts of MH's in combo with chiller. I don't want anyone mistaking my coral growing for something else.

  23. I swear honey, it started as a QT tank, it just went through a little Reef Evolution...

  24. When I started this hobby, I had no idea my desk would start looking like a chemistry lab...

  25. Anyone want a gorilla crab? Found this little guy in one of our tanks.. Not sure where he came from, as the tank started totally dry with dry rock.
