Lawnman Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 Looking real good Kyle. You going to keep both tanks going? Link to comment
kguske2 Posted July 27, 2014 Author Share Posted July 27, 2014 Looking real good Kyle. You going to keep both tanks going? As of July 26th yes It'll at least be up for 3-4 weeks to let the tech m run its course on the algae. Then I'll see how I feel. I don't want to bring anything with bryopsis to the new tank thats for sure Link to comment

kguske2 Posted July 30, 2014 Author Share Posted July 30, 2014 Awesome, congrats man! Thank you! Then I can make more money to spend on coral right?! actually kidding on that one. I should be blasting this acro (frogskin?) with light correct? Link to comment

I should be blasting this acro (frogskin?) with light correct? You need to slow down actually. I'm having a hard time keeping up with your demands!!! Yeah, the tank that frag originally came from was absolutely blasted with light, and it was kept under the 400w side of my sps tank. Just keep a close eye on it and if it starts to fade then lower the intensity of the light. Link to comment

Its not at the highest point in my tank but it is directly under the light so I can move it up if need be, and raise the light intensity obviously. Link to comment
glennr1978 Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 Is it holding it's color now? Link to comment
kguske2 Posted July 30, 2014 Author Share Posted July 30, 2014 Is it holding it's color now? I can tell its losing the bright green through the base, and is only super bright right on the tips. My little experience with SPS makes me think its not getting enough light. Link to comment
Lawnman Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 I can tell its losing the bright green through the base, and is only super bright right on the tips. My little experience with SPS makes me think I will buy more LPS. Fixed that for you . Link to comment

My little experience with SPS makes me think its not getting enough light. Can you get a pic? That's why I'm not a huge fan of LED's, they're too focused. IME with LED's they tops of the corals (SPS) will look fantastic while anywhere that isn't getting hit with light directly will brown out and die off. I know it's been done a thousand times, and I'm not trying to open a can of worms about LED's, that has just been my experience. Link to comment
kguske2 Posted July 30, 2014 Author Share Posted July 30, 2014 Nice new additions, I love that chalice . Thanks! I'm interested to see what this one ends up looking like. I know I was blasting it with too much light in the other tank so I wonder if it will morph on me at all. Can you get a pic? That's why I'm not a huge fan of LED's, they're too focused.

I know it's been done a thousand times, and I'm not trying to open a can of worms about LED's, that has just been my experience. I'll have to get a pic tomorrow. Lights are off. That would make sense though since its definitely the underside that is losing the green and the tops that are keeping it. Link to comment
