Sissy36 Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 I'm drooling it's so beautiful! I know I've probably asked twice and right now I'm too lazy to look, but how old is your system? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking good sir! When Ty speaks, corals listen. Ty demanded the beige and green efflo to be blue, and after 2 years of being the same color, it became true. All hail the coral whisperer! 13 hours ago, ShawnM said: What is the third to last picture? I want me some of that Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk That is the UC Bali Shortcake.

+olaggie01 Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 Looks great John. Now get rid of that big blob in the first 2 pics. It's distracting from all the lovely SPS. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's distracting from all the lovely SPS.Haha, I use the anemone on the glass to cover up the distracting nuclear glow of that JG Yellow colony. It really takes away from the rest of the tank [emoji38]Thanks to the BEST local reef club in the world and@mframe I was 3D printed a new frag rack I can hang from my center brace. I am accumulating so many frags these days I am simply running out of space on my two existing racks. This thing is pretty convenient and printed to my exact specifications! Thanks ARC!! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bpb Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 You sir, have some of the most dramatic, boldly colored, pleasantly shaped, and symmetrical growth in acropora I think I may have ever seen in an LED lit tank. Every time I look at this build thread, I am floored at the size of some of this table growth. You scaped perfectly for it. Nothing is shading anything 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every time I look at this build thread, I am floored at the size of some of this table growth. You scaped perfectly for it. Nothing is shading anythingThank you sir, unfortunately there is quite a bit of shading and territory battles going on right now. The red planet has grown to a size that it is shading out two colonies at the moment. The perfect solution would be to upgrade to a larger tank and place these tabling acros further from each other. Unfortunately I am at capacity for tank size due to the size of my house so this issue will continue into the foreseeable future. Just good excuses to cut frags!

Gig 'em @ NDstructible Posted November 18, 2017 Author Share Posted November 18, 2017 ORA says the ORA Blue Iris is a slow grower, I tend to disagree... this thing is going to be touching my Hawkins in weeks! The Pink Jade has been looking super fine lately! And the frag to the right of it is starting to show some real potential! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FarmerTy Posted November 18, 2017 Share Posted November 18, 2017 For those at the meeting, the Pink Jade was the colony I wanted back after it started looking so good in Gig'ems tank.Those acros are loving that tank man! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's got more frags than he knows what to do with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should really jump on the acro train, it's a wild ride!! As for food I use a dollop of fish eggs, a dash of mysis shrimp, a pinch of shredded dried seaweed, a dusting of fish meal, a few spritzes of Selcon, and of course the most important ingredient, LOVE. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HAHA, I'll probably make an attempt to keep some acros in the inevitable future when set up a tank that holds more than a handful of water. 100% agree with love being crucial.
