HarryPotter Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 Cooking in my friends tank for a few months now. Little pissed I moved it to get this shot. Any details? Some of us are struggling to get it to branch! Quote Link to comment
Boggers Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 This is why I asked him to coral sit a while....this is in a 250DD, with 2 400W MH bulbs half way down as it started bleaching at the top. 4+ powerheads and plenty of fish poop. He does not feed Corals at all. 3 Quote Link to comment
metrokat Posted January 29, 2016 Author Share Posted January 29, 2016 Updated the first post of this thread with the history of the Katropora, especially where it got its name. 4 Quote Link to comment

Boggers Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 Yes, but just as eye candy. 2 Quote Link to comment
NYfishies Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 After a long wait - the crown jewel of the tank is cooking on the frag rack. 4 Quote Link to comment
HarryPotter Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 So I added the Radion Gen 3 Pro above Acro island and the Katropora immediately colored up on the brown areas. It appears to have lost the teal but I think its just adjusting 1 Quote Link to comment
smiz Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 How do I see where I am in line! I clicked the google doc but it wanted me to re submit a request! Will bribe for Katropora! 3 Quote Link to comment
sprite Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 Nice minty green Harry... I wonder when the lighter branches start showing like it has on Kat's and Marks. I'm blasting mine under 2 250w radium's in lumenbrights 1 Quote Link to comment

sprite Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 What PAR would it be getting you think? It's 5 inches under the water directly under the lights. A rough guess of 400-450 prob?!? 1 Quote Link to comment

sprite Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 My nitrates rose to about 10-15 but are about 5 now Quote Link to comment
metrokat Posted February 12, 2016 Author Share Posted February 12, 2016 That is the right color combo. Keep it steady and it should take off. Considering it was looking like this a couple of weeks ago Post a recent picture tho, all those are older. 1 Quote Link to comment

basser1 Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 Hmmm..... That nub on the right side might have my name on it someday..... 3 Quote Link to comment
metrokat Posted February 14, 2016 Author Share Posted February 14, 2016 Getting PMs for frags. I had to take the waitlist document off line, I am unable to keep up with the requests for a frag for right now. As soon as I am caught up I will put the document back online. So sorry but I promise that I am working towards a solution. 3 Quote Link to comment
sprite Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 Hmmm..... That nub on the right side might have my name on it someday..... It's getting longer little by little:)Getting PMs for frags. I had to take the waitlist document off line, I am unable to keep up with the requests for a frag for right now. As soon as I am caught up I will put the document back online. So sorry but I promise that I am working towards a solution.I'm hoping mine takes off faster since I added a 2nd radium. The frag right beside it has. What it looked like before the second was added 2 weeks after If the Kat does this it won't take no time 2 Quote Link to comment
