a month
 

i've turkey basted fed toadstool, cabbage, polyps, brain, colts, shrooms phyto for a month
after no regular feeding in the couple of years i've had the tank
all look plump and healthy still, i'd say positive effect
no neg control run

Can't comment on growth rates or color improvements but I have noticed a greater polyp extention on acro since feeding phyto and cyclops.

hmm you reposting that to reinforce my post? :mrgreen: but the problem with this article is that if you read the end of it, is because it was only done with one type of coral they still cannot guess about others and he even says for SPS they don't know.. so until more wide testing is done we won't know. Also in every article I have read no one mentions color.

In an effort to answer this exact question and to prove that what we provide does indeed work Reef Crew http://www.ReefCrew.com and Canadian reef http://www.CanadianReef.com have set up 2 identical tanks and have placed the same corals in the same place in each tank.

We have tried to have the most control over the conditions as possible in order to have the best results in the end. Canadian reef is in the process of getting the documentaion online so people can follow things as time progress.

You may want to check with site for updates but I will do my best to add to this post to let everyone know that the information is online.

There will be the process documentation as well as regular photographs so you can follow the growth rates of things.

Although I know this post was asking more twards the SPS side of things this partnership will be looking at various Zoanthids and GSP and clove polyps.

Hope this will help answer some of the questions that are out there.

Ha I'm so brilliant. :rolleyes: :lol:

hey theshad, sounds really cool.
