badxgillen Posted April 27, 2015 Author Share Posted April 27, 2015 Today is the Day, Last Day to be precise, for the April entry deadline. Once tomorrow rolls around there will be no more excepted and those who have failed to "Report" will b e disqualified form the contest, prizes, and bragging rights. There are only 5 people who have yet to post theirs in the thread so this is actually looking rather good. It also seem that there are some great camera men\women here, keep up the good work everyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jadams7 Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Sliding in here like Indiana Jones with the door closing! My setup is a 93g rimless cube, with 2x ORs026 lights over it. Flow in the display is 2x Jebao RW15's, running a little under half speed on 'pulse' mode. I feed Rods about 3 times a week, flake most days, pellet roughly 2 times per week, no target feeding plans as of right now. The display is plumbed into the garage where I have a 40g breeder frag tank, sump with a Vertex 180i skimmer (and neck cleaner, woot). I run a calcium reactor and do not dose anything else on a regular basis. Lights are on 8 hours. These will be placed on the sand bed at the bottom of the tank. Here are the frags, both a little angry as I got back from a work trip and mr wrasse decided to flip them over. Punk. Zoa has 8 heads, paly has 3. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I woke up to my paly frag disc empty as well a few days ago. Luckily I found the stray polyp in the filter sock and stuck it to a new disc. Everyone ok with that?

cerk1985 Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 Was there two different kinds of palys? It may kust be differemt lighting, but im seeing alot of red skirts like lunar eclipses. Mine have a green skirt even in full blue light. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badxgillen Posted April 30, 2015 Author Share Posted April 30, 2015 If you got a sweet hitchhiker morph like the Clark did I would not be surprised. These rocks came directly from Jodi and he got them from a transhipment so they have had very few hands on them. If you indeed have an other type of Paly I would love to get in line for a trade after the contest is over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spilo Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 So I assumed yesterday I had no new growth... didn't look like it at a glance.. didn't pay real close attention because iv been dealing with this skimmer issue... but I checked them out real close today and have 3 new heads on the zoa and 1 new on the paly.. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
