Apologies for late submission - had a mishap where my auto-feeder sent about a month's worth of food into the tank in one day right after I received this piece! So, lost some coloration on this beautiful guy but it's still kicking and I'm still entering to see how it bounces back .

During this contest I'll also be continuing my crazy aiptasia battle, too... you might spot one or two or fifty in the pic below.

I’m going to be fighting the aiptasia war too. Just having a hard time deciding a plan of action. Good luck.

Berghia and a file fish worked great for me. F Aptasia and all the other "aptasia killers" only hurt the aptasia and didn't really kill them in my case.

Got it yesterday. Hopefully my photos improve.

Looking good guys! Let's stay consistent and use the inch side with zero at the bottom. My conversion skills aren't that great

 

[Coling]

My photography skills are lacking. Her she is tho.

Hats off to Adam. These are all particularly awesome frags. I'm over the moon with what I was sent.

Since we got our frags this month (Oct), do we need to submit a photo for this month or do we wait till next month (Nov)?

I'm going to post this as my October entry, a little early but better than missing it.
Normally I wouldn't mount a coral this fast, but in this case I don't have a ton of choice.

Your tank is a perfect candidate for berghia nudies. Lots of small aptaisia for them to easily find.

Good luck to all in the grow out.

I run my tank closer to 75, there was shrinkage I swear!

Ah I am so excited! My first ever SPS and it was like my birthday getting to open up my surprises from the battlebox.
They all seemed to ship well and my raindrops on roses quickly showed me some polyp extension which I guess means it was relatively happy!

Will submit an official entry post tomorrow, I need to buy a new ruler. But here she is

And now he has one of the best sales of the year going on right now. Just saying if you want another box
