Yup, I should really update that...

Anyways, got bored again last night and snapped some photos.

Got this frag recently from a local reefer. Can't remember what it is called, but is really interesting!

Another great frag from another local reefer. She has a few "mediocre" frags :wink:

Nice pictures :biggrin:

Some sweet frags there Dan, really makes me wish we had a LFS that stocks corals around here.

Beautiful coloring

Well, you should make a trip out to the coast then! We have a few good stores now which is awesome!

Thanks Rick, I thought it was something like that. Those frags I scored from you are already some of my favorite pieces! Thanks again!

Thanks! I have a couple more I got from Rick that I wasn't able to get good photos that are equally as nice and interesting.

Update time? How are you liking the reefkeeper? Are the frags doing okay with the led light in fuge?

I suppose it is time for an update!

The reefkeeper is awesome, I would highly recommend it to anyone who wants a cheap controller. I have it controlling my lights, one koralia and my heater. I may one day expand it to put a dosing pump, or some other such gizmo.

I have taken my bio pellets offline a month or so ago. I didn't do it for any reason, I just found it wasn't getting enough flow and took it off to clean and haven't put it back on since. I haven't noticed any difference in the appearance of my corals since, however I am having to clean the glass more and am getting a slight amount of cyano.

While rimless tanks do look sweet, I am finding they have their cons. Cleaning the glass with a mag-float is a delicate art, as it is easy to splash the side of the tank which is annoying. That and the obvious fact that it limits me to certain fish (those that are less notorious for jumping), and I lost my mandarin to jumping.

I'm starting to like the LED spotlight under my sump more and more, and I am starting to see growth out of a few birdsnest frags (not as much as my T5's but meh) and certainly my LPS frags, that and cheato is growing a lot faster (could be more from taking the pellets offline though).

Anyways, I will accompany a photo update when I get home from work as they are a lot more fun!
