New FTS! Battlecorals frags are coming in nicely. I lost one but the others are doing well and three of them already are showing excellent growth. Unfortunately I have a lack of space up in the higher PAR region so the one tenuis had to be mounted to the single frag plug holder for now. It just wasn't doing well down lower. I have been upping the white channel percentages on the Radion and did buy the high intensity lens kit particularly after noticing two of the lens had burnt out.
Seems crazy that I have two MP10s in this tank too but I do think it is helping with the more random flow.
Man that’s a lot to go through! UV really helped when I’ve had dinos in the past but sometimes it’s just taken awhile to fully kick them. At least your SPS are happy, when I have dinos mine usually really don’t do well.
Yeah I’m definitely to that point. A lot of it is corals growing into the glass and then accidentally fragging something when you’re trying to trim something else…
Looks awesome! I’ve always wanted something this minimal. Have you had any issue with needing surface skimming? I tried to run without it and ended up with too much build up on the surface of the water.
Thanks!! Yeah it’s definitely a battle for space on the bigger rock now and the Tubbs Stellata seems to win all the battles. I wish more of them had grown vertical instead of just encrusting….
Finally managed to take an FTS! The right side island is cleared out because I have a Battlebox coming in tomorrow. I seem to have everything dialed in so trying my luck with some additional acros over just the ORA Hawkins Echinata and Mr Pacman which have been growing great.
Thank you!
Thanks! Have to keep it to the island otherwise it would take over haha. It did start growing on the glass before I moved too but I think I like it better confined just to the island.
Finally some new pictures! Almost everything is growing great at this point. Zoas are definitely slow but I think that's because I've really optimized the tank for SPS. Let me know what you think!
Well the tank survived the move! Made quite a few new frags but so far no losses. Also took the opportunity to rescape the right hand side of the tank so I’ll try and take some pictures once I have the frag rack out of the tank.
Looks great! Sorry about your losses, on my last tank I had something like that happen and took me out of the hobby for awhile. Glad to see you’re sticking with it!
Things are growing out nicely! Not really too many updates which is a good thing at this point. Had the macro out to take pictures of some frags I listed today so also took a top down of the pocillopora colony which is getting huge (respectively for my tank...).
