What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?

If your I interested in a rfa they had a couple in stock non-wysiwyg but they are 50% off. I saw them... I wouldn't be sad with any of them 😉
I just ordered a few things finally to get some zoas going from TG. I like the flowers but haven’t tried one yet. One day I’ll get up there. I do need to hit the oar building place one day.
 
Havent been in this thread in a while, it’s too busy for me to keep up! But that’s a good thing, you all are great and I hope everything’s going well!

Since I got tagged back in, I’ll wave hi….with torches!

I remember it wasn't a Oregon tort, as I opted for the Cali instead of a Oregon. I thought it was a blue tipped slimer but I dont that that was it either. I got the acro bug bud haha
Cali tort is a fast grower as far as acros go. That was my favorite sps frag, but I lost it in the coral warfare incident. To me the growth pattern and color pop are amongst the best. They look like a high dollar acro imo

I'm really excited bud! My alk consumption has sky rocketed! Went from stable to plummeting since i upped the viparspectras, added the t5 hybrid and now 8 more acros? I'm sure its going to go up against soon! When i first upped my lights a few weeks back i was at 23ml a day of all for reef, I just set my doser to 50ml this evening.
 
Also, I will post better pictures in white light tomorrow! HOPEFULLY with some polyp extension! The pinky the bear had polyps out in the bad. I really like cultivated reef. Treat me really good there.
Did you see the grafted setosa in person?

Hey man that means you're growing in there!! Very well done. You sniped some great pieces today. One day they'll be big nice colonies and you'll have some pretty cool starting pics to tell the story.

It was gifted to me, I’m not quite sure what it is. Might be a dragon soul or a hellfire
