Emerald525 Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 Good information Isaac. It's amazing how quickly sps can go which is why I'm sticking with mostly spas right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mandinga Posted May 29, 2015 Author Share Posted May 29, 2015 (edited) Was doing some bi-weekly trimming and thought a fts for documentary purposes was in order. Side view looking longways Side view behind rocks...finally the corals in the back are really starting to fill in... Right island..was mostly acros, but some montis and pocillipora have slowly crept over Edited May 29, 2015 by Mandinga Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lexinverts Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 Fantastic looking tank! Did that Monti verrucosa frag I passed on to you settle in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mandinga Posted May 29, 2015 Author Share Posted May 29, 2015 Did that Monti verrucosa frag I passed on to you settle in? Just kinda sitting there not doing much yet:) LOL. I think it needs more attention from me...maybe a new spot. Space is limited for those types of montis...real estate hogging b$%^&*$!!!

Mandinga Posted June 6, 2015 Author Share Posted June 6, 2015 (edited) FTS-6-6 Feed me please:-/ Large paly;) Some acros getting ready for new homes. These came in a hitchhiker, or the zoas actually spawned in my tank. These popped up about 3 weeks ago. Yes I have some elsewhere, but far far away. Weird. Anyone know if these corals will play nice? The huge flow corner:) Huh? http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/06/06/599dc446a8df68cc976920fc5dd05a3c.jpg Edited June 6, 2015 by Mandinga Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mandinga Posted June 15, 2015 Author Share Posted June 15, 2015 (edited) Had some sps starting to recede a little. Oops, time to replace the lights. I have been running geissman pinks and actinic and one 5000k bulb. Decided to switch to ATI, 4 blue+, two actinic, one coral plus, and one aqua blue special. Things are looking better:) I'll post some full sun shots later...here are a couple evening shots. I run two blue+ bulbs at night and in mornings. And a shot of a new clam Edited June 15, 2015 by Mandinga Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mandinga Posted July 25, 2015 Author Share Posted July 25, 2015 Once again I busted out the old Sony and the porthole. Recent challenges: my kH daily swing is getting too large, and subsequently I am losing alot of SPS base up. Things still look good, but the bases aren't happy on many pieces still. Doser is about to be installed, and hopefully thatll fix the problem.
