yeah that monolithic style coral, haha, i thought i was strong enough to with stand is power, it kept telling me, "buy me, buy me" , in the end, i was weak.
haha.
its starting to do, nothing, i did have to move it twice now, so i will give it a week or two, and see what happens.

eh Kien, all your SPS are sick, great picks.

I was wondering if that piece would ever sell... It was so brown it actually looked like poo. Sure has colored up in nicely in your tank!

that pic was taken a few weeks ago, so the color has changed a bit since then, I did do a WC last night, and noticed that the polyps are turning a bit flourencent green.

Default Finally some new pics.

well, today i finally was able to take some pics of the tank.

I used the eshopps coral viewer for the top downs, and the pics are taken with a canon power shot, also no actincs.

I found that the colors are most intense since i stopped dosing zeospur.

also i have stopped dosing K+ for the time being.

I also started having to stack and move some colonies as its getting pretty full in there and finding that some corals are shading each other now and causing lack of flow.

here are so pics taken a few minutes ago.










pink stylo from the Red coral pre order, getting some color back













another Red Coral pre order SPS, looking like a rainbow
