Hey, your GSP is still growing like a weed in my tank!! And the mushrooms too. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

What’s up man??!! I’m moving over close to you actually. By Cabin John. My last job had me traveling 5 days a week, so I let my tank slowly disintegrate to almost nothing. And became a recluse. Quit that job for a much better one that only has me travel once a month or so. Excited to get back into it. How’s the tank? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’m moving to a bigger house and plan to build out a new system in a couple of months. Should be fun. My 120 is still kicking, but it’s seen better days. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It's been a while Seth. Glad to see you are still reefing. I googled it and I think you are right.

Anybody know what this is? It’s doing pretty good but...my tank is in rough shape. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Tank will be fine....it will just be a setback. It will need to recover. Patience is something that smacks me in the face every once in a while. Btw your Pearlberry frag is fine. [emoji41]

I had the AC-III for years with no issues. I may have even got it second hand. Solid product, but doesn't have the bells and whistles we all "need" now. Once you go to the dark side....

Classic.

So, guess what everyone??!! It happened again. This time it was worse. About 2 weeks ago, I started noticing my corals were fading a little. I did the usual water change and checked my parameters. All was good. About a week ago, I saw some of my high end corals were getting white tips. I started to panic a little and did another water change and checked parameters. I also cut a couple of hours off my lights to be safe. Three days ago I just happened to go to the basement where I have the tank at about 11:30 at night. My Metal Halides and my T5s were on. I looked at my Apex Fusion and it didn't show them as being on or show them consuming power. I do not know how long this had been going on, but that is obviously why my corals are bleaching out and fading. The lights were always off in the morning when I see it, but somehow they were turning on during the night. At this point I decided to reset the system and see if it corrects the problem. I reset and my main unit did not come back on. It is a black brick now. No status lights, no nothing. Just like my original post. Luckily I had all of my settings right so it is running for now, but I am not looking forward to dealing with Neptune again on this issue.

Awesome pic.

SPS are so strange. Growth patterns and colors look different. Cool.

Haha. Your corals look good naturally. No need to Photoshop.

Knowing Josh I would assume they have photoshop in the android App Store. [emoji23][emoji23]. THATS why his colors look good.

Ok I experimented a little more with the gels. With all lights on. Radiums, Actinic, Blue+, and AquaBlue+. I tried a couple different orange colors. I decided the gels CAN make iPhone pics better for sure. I just need to fine tune it. There are about 10 other shades of orange to try.

Nope.
