I received the corals yesterday from Incredible Corals and they came in packed nicely and looked great! Once I acclimated them, and put them in the tank I had no time to take pics... So I was able to take some this morning and they are looking great! I do not work for Incredible Corals at all but I do have to say that there corals and customer support is 110%!!! When I spoke with them on the phone they actually took the time to TALK with me. When they shipped the corals out I received a call sating that I would receive a tracking number in short while as they drop the corals off right before shipping them out so they are not sitting in bags all day. I then received a follow up email asking me if I received them and how I liked them! Can’t say thank you enough to INCREDIBLE CORALS!!!

 

Sorry for the quality as I can’t adjust the light just yet and am taking pics with an IPhone with Macro lens.

Sps isn't THAT hard lol.

Good water changes, good flow and good light. All I had on my 60 and a skimmer that didn't work hahaha

Grew sps like a treat.

Try a Monti, Mille or Digi. They are hardy sps and would look great. Pretty easy to care for with solid maintenace

Thanks acrab78! They are a great place to work with and I forgot to mention that they threw an extra zoa frag in for FREE!!! I know where im getting my coral from for now one! Here is a FTS, not the best... The light is great for corals but not for taking pics! Cant wait to get the Aqua Illumination Hydra 26 and possably the Apex JR!

Looks awesome... dont know how many more coral orders you can make without upgrading your tank hahhaa.... looks stocked to me! :)

I know right! I think a Innovative Marine Nuvo Pico 4gallon aquarium with a Aqua Illumination Hydra 26 and a Apex jr would look nice! :D

Just grabbed a used battery backup APC PRO 1000 for free and charged it yesterday. I only have the heater and pump connected to it right now and the LED bulb is connected to the regular power strip. I unplugged the Battery backup this morning at 7:15am and will see how long this will keep the water temp and circulation going in a power outage.

 

When the heater is not on the LCD screen of the APC it is telling me that there is 653 min. When it is on it is telling me there is 181 min.

 

I will post later on today when this APC goes dead.

I just saw this little 2gallon setup! It’s got me thinking and wanting to make something similar! I may make this one for my home!

 

This Pic gives you the idea of the size of the tank!

Just had a Battery LOW warning now! this lasted 7hrs and 30min with the pump and heater connected to it! Nice little addition considering it was free!

I have been battling the good ole aiptasia in my little Fluval Spec tank... It’s a losing battle due to my tank having 24 different frags of coral in 2gallon worth of real-estate. So these pesky aiptasia are coming out of holes and cracks in the rock or under different frag pugs or disks. This being said they are starting to take over and is pissing me off. I just ordered the best weapon against these aptasia.....

 

 

Drum roll please.....

 

I have ordered 4 Berghia Nudibranch's! These are a little on the pricy side but they will hunt these little suckers down and take them out (hopefully) fingerscrossed

 

 

They will be here tomorrow!
