rickjg Posted July 21, 2010 Share Posted July 21, 2010 ......................... July FTS .......................... Going thru the cycle again ... ... Corals that I added were doing very poorly, after investigating discovered the Finnex heater was cracked and the heater was full of small metallic beads that were dissolving into the water. Pulled out everything, cleaned and replaced the live rock as well as the sand (went black this time). Link to comment

When posting your August picture, keep in mind that this picture will be used in the side by side comparison when voting comes for best Pico Methodology. Because of this try and get a really good picture posted with a cleaned tank. Also keep in mind that the Aug picture locks in your livestock for the grow out period and only livestock in the Aug picture is allowed for the rest of the contest. If there is a coral or invert/fish not seen in the picture please let us know when you do the post. August Official Submissions Start After This Post Link to comment

Custom LED lighting. Corals: Turbinaria, Blue Micro Cloves, Yellow Polyps, Nuclear Green polyps, Waynes World Polyps, Green polyps -- hasn't opened in a few weeks so I have my doubts. Green Branching Frogspawn -- got it as a hammer but I think it's really a frog spawn Finger/Tree type leather -- Removed this but there are 1 or 2 small frags of it floating around behind the rocks. Orange Zoa's -- I hope they make it but I have my doubts Bright Blue Zoa's -- Once again I hope Green Stripped Shroom --- Upfront -- mostly lost it's stripes Red Shroom -- was doing really good until the Kenya tree stung it -- I removed the Kenya -- I hope the red shroom comes back Green Toadstool style leather.
