Tank is looking stellar @Janci looks like you could almost use an upgrade now too :D
This is how much I can handle for now and it is already bigger then I ever could have imagined.
My imagination is also limited due to the eyes of my

Zoas are getting overshadowed by growing acros... maybe one of the reasons they finally started growing, looking for more sunnier spots.

Blue/purple tip acro. Since nitrates are higher, colours became more intense.

A slow grower, but always happy nonetheless.

I got this Slimeball Anacropora from a friend who shut down his tank some months ago. Although it always has growtips, it never really took off.
Probably the fact that the fish like to tip this coral over, over and over again, and get it underneath the rocks, has not been of any help neither.

Finally encrusting....

I believe this is a chalice.

Finally new growing tips. The colour is also getting more intense since the nitrate dosing.

The fake pink lemonade. One of the favourites.

Started from a tiny frag.
I call it fire and ice something acropora.

Same coral as in a couple of posts before, but now taken with the porthole. I love how the main stems turned from white to purple-ish by placing it in less light.

I hope this one is finally in a happy spot. At least it started encrusting.

Another favourite

Did I mention that I love staghorns?
2018-05-12_11-48-06.jpg



More blue than this it should not get.

Colouring up again.
I had adjusted the intensity of the Radions by almost 10% due to loss of light when installing the diffusers. This was at least the outcome of the PAR measurement at that time.
It was a mistake as many corals were not happy anymore and lost some colour.
This one is a good example as it turned white at the time and is now recovering.

Ok, more blue

I wanted to mention something about staghorns...

So yes, I had some time to take pictures and adjust them in LR...
I also added them to Flickr, but I have no idea how to post from Flickr to R2R.

A new small frag I exchanged for another montipora. Mystic Sunset they called it.
This one below also had a fancy name...

Sorry, more staghorn
2018-05-12_11-48-13.jpg


Another coral I never posted as when I bought it, it did not do well. Now it is at the rebound and I hope will continue to do better.

It is not all hard in the tank

Looking very nice, what throws you on flickr?
I started Flickr to have the photos available on all devices.
After taking pictures, I adjust white balance at home and load the photos to Flickr where I later can check and use them on the mobile or tablet.
But that is not working with R2R yet.
Do I have to arrange permissions first?

So... a couple of weeks ago one of our top LFS organized a shipment of 100 frags from Fantasy Corals (check them on Instagram) from Singapore and as there were some spots left, I chose 5 to be added on my name.
The coral are arriving tomorrow evening so if all goes well, soon below additions should colour up the tank a little more.
Will send some pics when acclimated.

There are a few share options, I share BB code 800 x 530 medium from the PC, have you tried all the formats?

They send me the *.etg file already but I wanted to see the difference between this schedule and the AB+.
Also if you know how to adjust these schedules via reeflink, would be good to know.
Stopped Using reeflink a while ago, only Apex WXM

So these suckers arrived the other day and are now at the bottom of the tank.
I hope one day they will look as great as expected. The pictures do not show the colours as should be.
I am happy all arrived well and look good.
