I feel i should give some thanks to Dez, a couple of the corals in there are from his tanks. Everything is slowly coming together. I have some new bulbs coming monday which will help improve color a bit more becuase the ones i have now are going on 9 months old. I will eventually have to remove a few colonies to allow for some of the nicer ones to grow into big show peices. The tap water up here tested out to be really good with a ph of 8.3 and 0 phos and 0 nitrate. My only worry is some trace metals that might build up over time but i have been using the water up here for 2.5 years now and nothing bad has happend yet.
Thanks for all of the feedback! |

Just wanted to make a quick update. The growth has really started to take off again. My dkh is droping 1.5 per day which is annoying to dose but a good sign for the corals. I also stopped dosing vinegar (carbon) Because it was causing some corals to go pale. I will take some more pictures over christmas.

It has been a few months since I have updated this thread but I took a couple of quick pictures with a cheap digital camera to show some progress. I had to get rid of a few corals to make room for the growth I have been getting. Also I have begun dosing a few zeovit products and they have been helping a bit with color.
I still have never done a water change on this tank and do not plan on doing one unless the corals show some sign of stress. I do dose a lot and test often but other than that I just let nature take its course. I think you will eb able to notice some big growth from the last pics even though I have fragged mostly every coral in there. Enjoy! ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
