Hey I am sorry I’m a day late, I had an unexpected work trip. I have a photo to submit, not much has happened.

Count me out. Mine RTNd. Didn’t help that my alk spiked up with low-zero nitrates. Good luck everyone!

 

[biecacka]

Here is my monthly check in! Still encrusting some and growing up a little bit too. Ready for the arms to take off!

Chugging right along into June. Starting to see those little polyps peek out. Still under the Neptune sky in original post but par has increased 15% since.

There continues to be some Tin in the system. Still hunting that down. Running GFO so not too worried about the silicate. The lithium and moly were doses per triton. Just letting those fall naturally.

I’ve been dosing some extra stuff lately, like Strontium, Lugol’s, and Tropic Marine Plus-NP. The Plus-NP is to raise Phosphate levels because some other acros have been fading, and there’s noticeable consumption of this element.

Looks good! Was wondering about the green acro frag next to your SL? Yellow/orange polyps. What’s that one called?

That's my Walt Disney that just recently started to ever so slightly encrust. Got it around the same time as contest started.

Looks like we’re all just encrusting with the Space Laser, with almost five months in our tanks. Probably will take off in the next month or two; fingers crossed
