I only have three that aren't doing so well so far. Blue blaze went immediately overnight, Princess Bubblegum is starting to go, which is a shame because I had such high hopes for it with how nice it looked Friday, and I guess I was never meant to have Jungle Juice because that went away quick.Y

You know what happened or its one of those thing. Happy one moment and goner the next

I don't yet... I have another frag that tossed all it's zoox, never had that happen, but I can target feed it until it colors up again. It's weird, I've got the rack low and lights on acclimation mode at 7% today. Everything else is looking 'alright' but not as vibrant as when it came in. I'm letting it all settle in, so far the shaded ones look the best. Maybe it's time for me to put the Noops on that tank.

So par drops significantly with the diffuser, by almost 200, at the top of the tank! This is right by the acros on the frag racks towards the top.

Wow. Is it very noticeable by eye? I just added a cheap 3d printed diffuser/shade to my AI prime but have not had a chance to check par levels. It looks identical to the naked eye.

I'm giving up on Speciosa for now I think. Out of the three I picked up 1 is still alive but not all that happy. I seem to be having better luck with Tenuis and Millis.

They sure are finicky. I actually put my pieces i got in this order in my LPS tank since it's much more stable than my frag tanks.

 

[TankCandy]

It's a beautiful piece. If I had some photography skills, it would look better. All I care about is that they look more beautiful in person and they're happy. Was experimenting with flow mode. I have the gyre on random mode while my Jebao slw30 is on wave mode. Corals looks like they prefer this combo more than all the others I triec

I put my pieces directly in the flow of the return pump. Once they get acclimated over the next moth i will try and mount on a rock or something.

Not quite identical. You can tell it is darker. Kinda disappointed. I'll ramp the lights up and test tomorrow. I knew it would drop it some, but didn't expect that much.

 

[Kasrift]

Sad to hear people are having some losses. I'm shocked my acros are still doing their thing, I still have high phosphates. Just started dosing phyto again after almost a 2 week delay due to travel.

Too afraid to take drastic measures, so water change and slowly lower them, everything is happy so guess I shouldn't move too quickly.

I went to the Anaheim one for the first time last year. It was fun. I took my daughter to give my wife a day off. Anaheim is about an hour and a half away from me.

[SBB Corals]

Oh, @SBB Corals , do you have any idea what the freebie that was a fully encrusted base with a half inch high nub on it was? Because that thing LOVES my tank.

Hmm do you have a pic?

 

[OrchidMiss]

It was great finally getting to meet you !!! See you tomorrow!!!

You know I'll be back to bother you. Breaking out the good camera today.
I'll snap some pics for you. Who knows, maybe I'll score another torch

I've got plenty of room.
Well, I'll get a new pic when I get home tomorrow, it looks a little different now.

 

[Thuan]

Measured alk this morning, low at 6.7., its all the SBB fire I've adding. Everything is doing great. I just need to adjust my doser to get back to my normal 7.5-7.8

What is that you have growing on the back glass center right half way up? Is that a Monti. I like that.
