jack1978 Posted October 16, 2016 Share Posted October 16, 2016 GSP and Blue Cespitularia are growing too fast! Thinking about fragging them. Anyone local interested? GSP is the electric green kind, super bright. Growing on the sand in nice mat sheets so easy to glue to whatever you want. Blue Cespitularia is from Cultivated Reef: http://cultivatedreef.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=19_4&product_id=982. To be 100% honest, the photo on their website is slightly exaggerated in terms of the brightest of this. It does not florescence under blues like other corals. But it's still very nice with long purple stalk and whitish polyps. I'll take some blue stuff! Have snowball deliver the goods! 2 Quote Link to comment

mpsti05 Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 What heater you running? And how big is the space on the right side of the sump. Planning to put My ato container and the electronic stuff in there Quote Link to comment
ninjamyst Posted October 18, 2016 Author Share Posted October 18, 2016 What heater you running? And how big is the space on the right side of the sump. Planning to put My ato container and the electronic stuff in there some cheap 350w heater since I have apex to control it. I think Marineland or something. I will have to measure the right side of the sump tonight, but it should fit ATO container and electronic stuff. Quote Link to comment
mpsti05 Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 Jager 200w is what I was thinking controlled by the apex aswell 1 Quote Link to comment

So I am gonna be looking to get a new one. Thanks I am using Aquamaxx CO-1. LOVE IT. Quiet, has never overflowed for me. I been through 2 other skimmers before Harry (check out his 350 build too) recommended the CO-1 to me. You just missed a sale from Marine Depot on it, but they may do it again for Black Friday or see if they can still hook you up with the sale price. 1 Quote Link to comment

Unfortunately, I will miss Chicago Aquatic Experience. Gonna be in Vegas instead =). I will have to start throwing out GSP soon at the rate it is growing. It already got on the overflow. Are you close to Seven Seas? I can meet you there on a weekend and bring you GSP, blue xenia, and a frag of green birdsnest. 3 Quote Link to comment
ninjamyst Posted October 30, 2016 Author Share Posted October 30, 2016 I had this birdsnest for 3 years now and it is STILL being supported by that tiny branch. I accidentally fragged it a couple of times too. Growth really exploded once it was in this tank. Oct 20, 2013: Oct 29, 2016: Acros are coloring back up. I haven't changed a thing. Stupid SPS. My heater stopped working recently too. The tank been running at 74 at night. Oops. 8 Quote Link to comment

Mikeymikemike Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 How are you finding the kessil? Is it working well for you? Quote Link to comment
ninjamyst Posted October 31, 2016 Author Share Posted October 31, 2016 How are you finding the kessil? Is it working well for you? Love and hate relationship. Slow growth on acros and color is only good when viewing from top. But impressive for single fixture and all other corals are loving it. Quote Link to comment
