November entry. Had to re-Mount. I think I lost 1/4” without the frag plug. @StatelineReefer @BranchingHammer @Reefing102

YAY made it in under the wire . Adam mistakenly sent me a Helltrollsman instead of a blue ghost earlier in the month. It wasn't a big deal so I just entered the Helltrollsman contest. I ordered a blue light special on the Real Black Friday sale that @Battlecorals had and it arrived today and I'll be darned if there wasn't a Blue Ghost in the box so here I am. Hopefully its not a problem for one of you kind folks to add me to the Blue Ghost contest? I've posted my zero and November measurements both in this post since they are the same. Please let me know if you need me to move the Nov image to its own post.

Hey guys. Anyone who’s frags crashed on them, and you’d like to go on please shoot me an email! I’ve still got a number of ghost frags on the rack. Can definitely get you a replacement.

@StatelineReefer @Reefing102 @BranchingHammer

Going through some algae issues but at least I've gotten some encrusting since I got these a couple weeks ago.
Hopefully december will look better.

Month 1 update! 4mm of growth in 3 weeks (25mm Day 0 to 29mm), This is my replacement/v2 Blue Ghost, and it's definitely been the most challenging coral of the 3 for me so far. It looks dead to the naked eye, but as you can see in the zoomed in shot there's still some flesh so I've got my fingers crossed it pulls through. I've also included a current shot of my original/v1 Blue Ghost- something I plan to continue doing until it's absolutely bleached out.

ICP test, apex stats, and FTS attached for anyone curious on my tank stats and frag placement.

Note there's a lot of messed up stuff on the ICP test (Fe and Al especially), and I'm chasing down the culprits. I'm 3 weeks into the Reef Moonshiner's method (just daily dosers so far), and all the correction elements show up tomorrow and I'm excited for that! No vitamins or reef mud yet, I'll probably order those in a month.

I've got my Radion G6 XR15 Blues on full performance of WWC's SPS 1500G tank, and the G6 XR30 Blue in the center is on a 60-day acclimation ramp up to an end goal of ~500 par in the center of the tank @ 12" depth.

I'm still trying to see which of the contest frags like what kind of light in my tank, and I've got some center-aisle spots reserved for them for final placement once I figure out what they like.

I've included a zoomed in shot for fun, and also to really see the flesh, polyp, and coralite health each month.

@StatelineReefer @Reefing102@BranchingHammer My original blue ghost seems to maybe be recovering, while my replacement is slowly struggling. Just in case, I took a measurement pic of my original-
