Nice tank!

Thank you Ziggy!!!

Nice! I think I see a spot you could put more corals lol!

That's my goal....hahhaha...i want to stuff it til i can't stuff...hahahhaha!

nice growth and coloration you got there...looks like you're running out of room

Thanks Bruce, i still got room for me, no upgrade for sure...hahahha! Since i added the calcium reactor, i finally start to see more growth.

Thank you......as for the issue, i had the naso tang first, then added the blue powder tang. After the pbt settle down, he was chasing my naso tang around for a few days and that was it. No more chasing or fin napping.

yup, the naso did had a hunger strike for a week. When i first got it, it didn't eat and would only eat macro (feather) and then slowly start eating seaweed. And had a hunger strike after several month for no reason for a week and then start eating again.

What kind of settings are you running your lights on?

What kind of settings are you running your lights on?

running the radion on "natural mode" that simulates the sun cycle (bell curve), but the light turns on 10:30am to 9pm.

Some close up shots. Enjoy!

Thanks Javy!!! I love it, my stuff is growing, color wise it's good, but it might be other stuff that also play a part of it, not just the ligth alone. My phosphate is probably high..lol! i need to change water and media more often. I gotta check out your tank and see what's the secret on those popping colors you got in your tank!

Nice! Shots what camera do u use?

You have a heck of a collection Sam. Now I know which tank to raid

How that abrotanoides doing for you? Keep me posted on it's progress. It's a crap shoot keeping one of these successfully. I have mine 8" from a 250w halide. So far color is the same but polyp extension has improved.

Sam I was just checking your video. We have to talk : )
I see a brown fuzzy stag with a growth tip (maybe 2 of them). Is this an abrolhosensis?
I need one!!! Sell me a frag or trade me PLEASE!!!

Lol!!! Thanks! Swing by when you get a chance, your always welcome.

It seems fine for now. I keep it with high flow and intense light, lots of polyp extension when light goes off, same for the other new one I got the other day. I will keep you posted.

Thank you Eric! You found a solution for the your light?

Sam, my wife has a laptop she brought home from work. I used the USB connection cable and hooked it up that way.

I ended up downloading a graph from one of the Ecotech employees (Jon C) and it looks phenomenal.
