One day when I finally hang up t5/mh, I plan to go with an assortment of QuantaPro bars. They pack a punch, great color appearance and spectrums and are cheap for what you get in coverage. My one gripe with LED is shadowing and I feel like a few bars would mimic t5 better. I'll probably add a...

Hopefully you do. I know Dino’s I’ve had in the past were almost non existent by lights on, then full blown by then end of my photoperiod. Mine were sensitive to UV as they’d go free floating at night.

Sorry to hear that Jimbo. I’m not familiar with Trident but hopefully someone can help get you going. I know a few members here have rebuilt/fixed issues with them so maybe one will chime in with a probable cause.

I've still got a small frag of the millepora but it needs coloring up. I can also still do a branch of ORA Frogskin.

You tank is looking incredible, such great color and growth!

The tank seems to really be improving now. I felt like I saw slight improvements within a few days of lightly dosing vodka. I decided to add 100ml distilled white vinegar to a gallon of my calcium chloride part B, basically cut CoralEuphoria's amount in half. If I did my math right I'm dosing...

I'd have to look back on my build thread, but I believe I've been BB for a year or so. My previous system was BB and my most successful to date. It seems to work better for me personally.

I'm running 3 gyre xf350s and a Tunze 6105. My original xf150 came with spare cages and blades, they don't anymore. That's the only draw back since they need to be cleaned so regularly to keep flow output. Once I buy some spare cages/blades, they'll be one of my favorite pumps. Love their flow...

Tons of color, looking great man

Sounds like a plan Dipan. Hopefully we'll get some decent waves here soon.

I went with my favorite 2 Part brand, E.S.V. because I feel they have really good quality control.

Nothing concrete really. I did that witch hazel treatment followed by 2x50g water changes. That was about 2 weeks ago and the tank is starting to look pretty good now. I've also upped my feeding and my nutrients are much higher which could also be part of it. I'm seeing some improvements so I'll...

Thanks brotha! It's nice to see some colors again. Have you been getting in the water at all?

Nice got some CUC food served up. Looking good Jimbo. I'll be pulling some chaeto soon, if you want some let me know. Should have some brittle stars, pods ect in there. Maybe some some bristles and nuisance algae/cyano. I'll probably have near a 5g bucket full.

Ha! Thanks Jimbo. I'm not sure if I had/have a pathogen or not or if something in my husbandry was just way off but the tank is looking good post witch hazel treatment. After watching Abe's video I do wonder if part of the positive reaction was just witch hazel acting like a carbon source for...

Gonna be a cool view in a couple months. I’m seeing more polyp extension on some troubled pieces. Hints of color coming back on some as well. A few randoms that look good under blues

Thanks man. I bought that as RR Robin-hood from a local reefer. He bought it from FHC. While it doesn’t look like the RR pictures it does have a nice golden hue under blue bars. I prefer it’s look under full spectrum, a cool granulosa for sure.

I was reading the guidelines for Elmi-NP and the instructions do seem to line up with standard carbon dosing. I'm going to watch things for a bit before I do anything, but I do like that idea. I did another water change to remove some detritus and also that large monti I had encrusting the...

@drexel that did come to mind but only after watching a timely CoralEuphoria YouTube video yesterday. Not tropic Marin specific, but was a good watch for me. I’m considering it but worry that if I didn’t have some type pathogen I might fuel it. I’ll look into the TM product. I like the idea of...

If anyone needs fresh cut frogskin branches I would like to trim mine. It's a nice entry level sps. Old picture, it's quite a bit bigger. Limit 1 per person. 2 small frags of a millepora table I had to frag up and salvage. One of my large pieces is encrusting and looking good so I'd be happy...
