WOW! That fox flame is INSANE! 1. I wish I had colors like that! 2. I wish I could take photos like that!

By the way, if 143Gadgets is reading this thread, is there any way you may be able to find the time someday to give a quick little tutorial on how to take such great photos of our tanks? I have a Nikon D7100 that I apparently don't know how to use, because my photos don't come out looking anything like yours:)!!

Thank you! I wish I could take photos like this too!

Everything looks amazing Darren! Can't wait to see more

Thanks Kevin.

I gotta make it down to your place soon to catch up!

You have been saying that for a year! Open invite as always!

Darren that's awesome. It's great to have such a high quality video of your tank. You have an awesome collection of acros, colors are excellent. You have me rethinking my water quality :).

Are you still running ZEOvit? If so what supplements are you dosing?

Yes, I would love to know if your using Zeo, bioPelletes and what lighting you are using on that monster? Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks Man, I appreciate the comment!!!

great video D

Thanks Guys. Rich, dont change anything you are doing!! My acros actually became a bit pale, as my nutrients became too low, basically zero's. I have fed more and things are coloring up.

That's one sweet acro

It looks similar to RMC red devil, its defiantly a awesome coral and tank

Thanks guys, its a beaut for sure. And yes it does look similar to the red devil nasuta!

+1 to this as well thanks. I am looking to run some Zeo products on my tank.

I have not run Zeovit or any of the supplements for years. Became too much work and not enough positive results. I am now running a Natureef reactor for PO4 and NO3 removal and this has been hands-down the best piece of equipment I have ever purchased while in the hobby. I haven't done a water change in over a year, with the use of the Natureef system. IMO stability of no WC along with not having to run carbon and GFO which strips the water has been the key. I use a PRO cal reactor with extra coarse media for CA, ALK, MG and trace elements. I also dose Iron plus, Iodine plus from Natureef and Potassium. For lighting I switched over from all LED's (which I hated) to a hybrid setup of 2 250 watt MH with 3 AI Vega's and RB strips. Hope that helps.

Interesting, it seems bacteria dosing is the way to go.

Awesome video!!! I liked how Chris captures the panoramic view of your bullnose tank.
