Dez' Tank Journal

Love the contrast between the flame angel and the SPS in that shot Dez. New avatar too. Seems to be the running theme tonight lol.

I dig that digi and the gorg. Might have to roadtrip it one day with a bucket of chaetoBalls and do you some sweet sweet TRADING.

Which Digi did you like - the white polyp, or superman or peaches 'n cream?

Well, if you get that Brazilian, then there might be some sweet trading. But, too bad I don't have a fuge.... Maybe it's better you don't export those green balls....you need them more than I do.

Yeah the white polyped one =)

Looks great. How you liking the zeo so far?

[Dez]

Tony,

I'm used to dosing daily now and have gotten into sort of a routine. I had my PO4 tested today and it's at 0.02, so I guess it's working. Corals show good polyp extension so everything looks happy. I don't really know what to compare zeovit to though because my system was only a couple of months old when I started. I'm getting decent colours though so that's good. So all it all, I like it so far.

For those who go straight to the last page of the thread, I started the growth sequence pics on page 41. Thanks for looking

Wow what growth man. You have it nailed DOWN!

That first staghorn blew my mind.
