Some growth/encrusting comparison pics. I think all of these frags have been in the display tank less then a month so keep in mind they went through a big light adjustment during this period.

Are you dosing iron? I started dosing 1ml for 110 gal system once a week and the green corals are very vibrant.

Nope. I have some but have not decided to dose any yet, as I am still scared of the impacts Iron has on Tridacna clams. The greens are pretty vibrant as is and getting better with time. The colors are off a bit on those comparison pics because I didn't adjust them at all - just trying to show the growth and shift of colors without introducing errors. I havn't touched the white balance on my camera so should be very similar.

So I just woke up and looked at my tank and water was super cloudy. Tiny white particles in every tank floating around. Then I looked closer and all the snails were at the water line. A second later I see one snail on my locline thats squirting water up at the mesh top.


My Astrea snails just spawned! Like, 10-20 of them at the same time.

Very nice, Lets see some pics of the Ignitus.

Unfortunately she didn't make it. Came in looking very frail and skinny - just didn't want to eat. I had 3 or 4 fish in that shipment and lost most of them. I don't think they shipped well.

I do have a Borbonius in my social acclimation box right now however :bounce:

Since you quoted a post before I changed things,

I have three tanks and one sump.



Display has an ATI Powermodule Hybrid 48" w/ 4 T5s and 3 LED Groups. Two blue+, one UV, and one Coral+

Frag tank has a 300w Marsaqua LED Fixture with two recently added 24" T5's retrofitted to it. Blue+ and Coral+

Refugium has a 120w Reefbreeders-like chinese fixture over it which I need to either buy a different light or figure out a better way to mount this one.
