Additional Aquarium Information

What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
All are welcome! Some may have to sleep outside with the chickens, however.
I feel like she misspelled Tim and Kevin or her phone autocorrected us to "some".
 
Sounds absolutely horrendous. Cinnamon Toast Crunch belongs only in Vitamin D Whole Milk. And you must drink the milk afterwards.
I drank the milk before, during, and after!
 
IPhone with a clip on glass macro lens + or...

If they are this stunning in pictures they would have to be even more amazing in real life!
Some things can’t be captured on camera

This torch I can’t even describe fully. If I was to try i would say it is a mint center with a “pearlescent gold sheen” that changes based on the flow, or viewing angle. I can capture it in the moment but that doesn’t give it justice to standing in front of it and seeing it happen in person. All the tips in person are light lavender but sometimes in photos they come out dark purple.

Jk I love you more than you will ever know and pray we meet someday
 
This is why I’m currently broke and have no...

Lol don't go look at the sale... I wanted so many more but it's not in the budget since I recently spent a little over $800 on fish and corals....
 
That is a baby plate that I’ve been growing out until it’s a sellable size. It’s roughly 1” across and is ready to go. Its…pricey…

Coral Collectors Insanity Plate - they charge 800-900 for a 3/4” - 1” baby

I got mama as a 1/2” baby…maybe 3/4” tops. She’s just over 3” now

If anyones interested in the baby…it’s probably worth $900 now if sold directly from Coral Collectors…a ton. I know. I would offer for 50% off what they charge. I know that’s still a lot but it’s worth a lot and any lower and I’m really selling myself short when I could just put it on the market and sell for 500-600. But I hate dealing with market. So if anyone is interested just let me know, $450 and it’s yours.

It is gorgeous!
Thank you! It’s super nice in person. One of those things that looks great in daylight and blues. I’m not sure what looks better. It’s really nice in all spectrums. It doesn’t need a windex tank for it to look good

It’s a plate. Super easy lol I literally grew mama on a plug in a frag rack

Key is to feed it a few times a week. They love to eat, it keeps them healthy and makes them grow faster. Oh and keep it out of the sand. Everyone keeps plates in the sand, and most people end up with issues. I have learned over the years. Sand eventually irritate them so I keep on a rack or on a small stand

I’ll include the stand lol
