Today I got something new for the tank. I received my diffusers from 3DReefing.com for my AI Primes. Loving how much they help cut down on the static flashy shimmer and blend it into an even smooth shimmer. Plus they look really sleek. Here’s a quick video showing the difference they make.

This thing is easily the fastest growing sps in my tank currently, which is nice because it happens to be my favorite so far.

Nice score! Already so bubbly!🤤

Didn’t get anything on Black Friday, but did manage to get to my LFS for Small Business Saturday. Was hoping to find a nice deal and participate in ReefBuilders LFSSaturday giveaway. I ended up getting this acro, was labeled as a PurpleTip Cerealis but seems more like a Miyagi Tort to me. What ever it is it was a steal for only $16.

What kind of reef are you planning for the tank?

Double post.

Styloceoniella are becoming some of my favorite corals. Really loving them. My JF Burning Banana has “bounced”: My 24k gold: JF Sunset:

Yeah. So I’ve learned the hard way. There was maybe a 1/4” gap between my lid and the tank and I thought for sure it would be fine. Just picked up some materials to mak e a bigger screen top. I don’t want this happening again to any fish. Poor thing.

He was a Pintail Fairy Wrasse (Cirrhilabrus Lanceolatus).

Thanks for he compliments and condolences. He was the jewel of my tank and I miss him a bunch. It’ll be a while before I have money to replace such an expensive fish, or at least an expensive one to me.

Is this a Tyree Tierra De Fuego? I know the Tyree TDF doesn’t get the greens and is all just lovely pinks and reds.

Well, dang... Not what I wanted to see when I get home from a 12 hour shift at work. Poor little guy. I’m going to redo my lid and bury his fella tomorrow.

Looks like a little baby bristle worm. Great detritivores! Some of my favorite CUC.

IPhone 7+ with the original Aquariclip for the all blue shots and just the IPhone for the 12k.

Got this piece of Tierra De Fuego and would love to see anyone else’s pieces. So show off your TDF! Some all blue shots with gel filter: Some 12k shots no filter:

As much as I’d love to participate in this growout I think I’ll have to be skipping this one unfortunately. Good luck everyone!

I’m on board that it might need more par. The more par the more red with Red Planet. I’ve seen it in high par with no green and just all red.

I’m pretty sure I got this piece from @badxgillen back in May. It was just a white little stick with a hint of pink. Now it’s a chunky mess of pink and green. Shot under all blues with an Aquariclip. No editing.

Depending on when this starts I might be interested. When will we we need to have he money by and where will we be picking up the frags from?

Non HD?

I’ll be following along. Glad to see someone else running a C-Vue! 👍

I can send you the file if you want, just send me an email address. Heres a pic.

Really haven’t updated this in a while but the tank is still going along. Things look well now. Back in summer the early heat caused some bleaching before I could get the ac up and running. Lots some things, mostly the sticks I got from the May meeting. A Blue Stag and a chunk of Tierra De Fuego both survived and are starting to color back up and grow nice now. If you gave them to me feel free to remind me. I’ve totally forgotten what I got from whom.

My 1982 Volvo GLT Turbo. Still a work in process but I love this car. Maybe I’m biased because it’s the first car I’ve ever purchased though.

Yeah. One of the first things I learned about this hobby was the Nitrogen cycle, beneficial bacteria and how they need surface area to live. So I’m surprised it has taken me this long to consider using a biomedia like this. You would think it would be a no brainer. Thanks! My Trachy is right upfront in my tank so it tends to be the easiest to shoot. I’m just lucky they happen to be so photogenic. When I first got it it didn’t look so good. I really think the Primes are coloring my coral up nicely. Though as I get into more sps, or rather more sps get into my tank, I’m wanting to go hybrid and add some T5’s.
