Baby blue. Probably because it gets a lot of light

2. Overview of setup.

My setup is a mixed old-school setup with a hodgepodge of stuff. A planted reef tank, fairly new in age but running old school technologies and constantly evolving, as I learn or am able to add.

Lighting: (2) PC fixture + LEDs strip
Filtration: Built-in W/D and Refugium conversion aspects.
Gallons: 100G Corner Pentagon Tank
Feeding habits + Livestock: various cubed foods and coral frenzy for various corals and four fish. Hoping to add fish and other corals and various things during the competition time frame.
No dosing but I might add additives if I find they might be needed.

will get a better one when I'm home and my whites are on. I've been busy lately have haven't been home much. The frag has encrusted and really starting to get some good polyp extension for a few hours a day.

You got me all bummed out… did those guys get the competition frag and then just drop out? $5 for the frag? We might need to impose sanctions like Obama if this continues...

Yea it sucks, hopefully they didn't just join the contest to get a $5 frag lol. I think some might have killed theirs and not admit it. Or some just don't have the time to post. I know time has been the death of me lately as well.

 

[lovingacans]

I'm not a big fan of Obama but I'll get down Obama style if we need to….lol...

 

[Greaser9999]

I never picked it up Ron

 

[Jlooney_4]

I was to busy that week to pick up the frag. I never got it.

 

[lovingacans]
