HarryPotter Posted November 20, 2018 Author Share Posted November 20, 2018 I added Pohls coral vitalizer to my feeding regimen of reef roids and mysis. The LPS go particularly insane. This is during the daytime- you can see the good size in the water. 1 2 Quote Link to comment

And my tank is only 30 gallon. The brs doser is working magic the last few days, thanks for the pep talk. 1 Quote Link to comment

I dose B ionic Ca and Alk, they come in this gallon containers that you add water to- so yeah they’re diluted. I believe all solutions would precipitate if you added them without diluting! But Mg is fine 🙂 3 Quote Link to comment

Problem is that the efflo is too perfect to frag. A perfectly round colony growing in all directions. I can only see myself fragging it if it gets a weird area of growth- like randomly shoots up an uneven branch ... Otherwise, you're SOL! Im in this hobby to grow colonies, my frag sales are clippings from warfare 😥. 2 Quote Link to comment

I’m ok waiting until it shoots out weird branch(es). Right now my rack is pretty much milliporas and purple bonsai from the "collision zone" at the center of my tank. I fell behind and now there are a bunch of areas where one acro is growing over the branch of another 😮. I was thinking about "seeding" a red Millipora colony by attaching like 10 small frags to a 3-4" disk. The growth pattern might be pretty cool. 1 Quote Link to comment

We're not really drinkers on thanksgiving Jackson was by far the star of the night. He has just been going nuts as everyone came home from grad school and the like! So hyper that he would wrestle with the rope on his own, without even needing someone to play tug haha And one of the pies- apple pie with amazing nuts and caramel 5 Quote Link to comment
