nano_tank Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 Love 20L, can't wait to see this progress! Are you sure you want Kenya trees? They spread like weed and become a nuisance later on. Link to comment
Reeftech Posted September 27, 2012 Author Share Posted September 27, 2012 Yeah that one was my first coral i got when i started a year ago.It was just a tiny branch piece and i have held on to it through 4 different tanks.I have had a few others but just gave them away to new reefers.

InvaderJim Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 Anymore info on your light fixture? Where did you get it? Link to comment
Reeftech Posted December 27, 2012 Author Share Posted December 27, 2012 I won a new acan colony off another site. The light fixture is an ebay find they are only 150 new. I like the 36 better than the 24 cause you dont the dark ends. Link to comment

Begow Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 Trying out a different camera and noticed the growth on the xenia in just a few days.Now im kinda rethinking it being in my tank. I had xenia in my 75 back in the day, worse decision ever!!!!!! I still want those LTR Acans Link to comment
Reeftech Posted February 13, 2013 Author Share Posted February 13, 2013 LOL.I still want them too.Maybe when i get an inland saw ill let you get some lol. Im hoping they are using excess waste like nitrates to fuel growth. Im already fighting blue clove polyps.Going to get a wire brush and see what happens. 1 Link to comment
