evan127 Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 Aquatic Log is a service for you to input all of your data on your system. Its pretty cool. Could you take a screen shot of your EcoSmart Live program? Link to comment
evan127 Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 Right on. Thanks! I love to see what other Radion users have theirs set to. The possibilities are endless! Keep the picture updates coming! Link to comment
latteslave Posted May 13, 2015 Author Share Posted May 13, 2015 Thanks - and apparrently I have it maxing at 75 now... I know I moved it higher but everything is growing so why mess with it. Link to comment
Dramad1 Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 Sweet fts. Tank looks really clean. What Gen radions are those? Link to comment
latteslave Posted May 14, 2015 Author Share Posted May 14, 2015 Dramad1 they are the gen 3 pros. And thanks! Link to comment
HarryPotter Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 Beautiful tank! Would you consider getting another Radion to increase the light output on the sides? Or do you like the lower par areas for LPS & the like? Link to comment
latteslave Posted May 14, 2015 Author Share Posted May 14, 2015 and a quick STS again - no editing and iPhone 6 Beautiful tank!Would you consider getting another Radion to increase the light output on the sides? Or do you like the lower par areas for LPS & the like? I like the coverage - having the 120 makes a difference but honestly I get plenty of coverage. Link to comment
evan127 Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 I have the 120 lenses on mine and it makes a huge difference. I love the side shot! Great capture! Link to comment
picoreef78 Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 Ditto the 120 degree lenses. Link to comment
picoreef78 Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 How to you like the coral radiance program? How is growth? I left mine at 85% on natural mode with good growth and pretty good coloration. Link to comment
markalot Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 It was fantastic to see an update but we need MORE! Link to comment
latteslave Posted May 24, 2015 Author Share Posted May 24, 2015 Thanks Matt, Mark and Evan. Corals broke the waterline this week... Pico - I like the coral radiance. I am doing my best NOT to do anything to the tank with the exception of maintenance. In the past, I think the amount of messing I did with other tanks caused issues. Link to comment
plainrt Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Looking good. I love that stand. Link to comment
HarryPotter Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 The 120s really make a difference? Do they help with the disco ball effect? Definitely want a pair- my lenses are all scratched and opaque 90s. Which coral broke the water? How does it look? Link to comment
picoreef78 Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 I have been running the coral radiance modified with 13k max at 85% for a few hours then 14 k and then follows the rest of the protocol for about 1 1/2 weeks. Noticed coloration changes but growth does not seem to be as much as it was under the natural protocol which maxed at 12 k. Will continue and see. Link to comment
evan127 Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Thanks Matt, Mark and Evan. Corals broke the waterline this week... Maybe a pumps off top down photo is in order? The 120s really make a difference? Do they help with the disco ball effect? In my system, I noticed that the 120s reduced the disco ball effect to a great degree. That being said, each system is different. P.S. No matter what optics you have on the Radions, the disco ball effect always shows up in photographs. Photos aren't really a good source of reference.

picoreef78 Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 I am thinking of going back to natural mode. I am not really noticing increased growth (but lots more fluorescence). Link to comment
picoreef78 Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 How deep are your rocks from the water surface? Still trying to fine tune mine and backing off from 90 to 85% intensity. My rocks are about 10 inches from surface. Running a modified coral radiance with peak 12.5k. Link to comment
evan127 Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 Need updates Especially these waterline breaking corals I've heard about! Link to comment
latteslave Posted October 12, 2015 Author Share Posted October 12, 2015 Man - I have been horrible at posting... Quick photo upload, all iPhone and no editing, sorry for the quality. First is the comparison from the start to current. Shot of the corals at the waterline The clam becoming a monster Untitled And other random shots In there process of removing some sand and then adding in new. Link to comment
evan127 Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 Amazing! What Radion settings are you using now? Link to comment
