i get those as well. Super annoying. They seem to really like cyphastrea. They also have colonized the encrusted base of some acros as well

^^^^^^ that looks cool though IMO. ^^^

Very nice. What's your lighting?

This tank is lit by an 8 bulb t5 with a 50-50 xho

What are these growing out of this coral? I have some these on one of mine also.

I think it’s vertimid snails that got covered up I hate them and always makes one of my ot's look like this

Sexy Corals Orange Passion under 14k Phoenix only. This is in the back under about only 200 PAR... it will shine if I had room to double the PAR.

Love the daylight look.

ORA Cliffs on the top and RR The Vihn on the bottom.

It's really interesting to see some of the same species exhibiting some differences in morphology and growth between ones grown under halides/t5s vs LEDs

Fox Flame, a while back...

Your growth is impressive for how short of time you did your reboot!

Oh my I love the coloration on that deepwater! Nothing is going to do a better job than the lighting you have over those corals! Weird how I keep seeing people say 10k equals brown corals I wish I could see more 10k pics these days.

Efflo starting to get its purples! Love the horrida and clams as well!

Thanks. Just got the Efflo about 2 weeks ago. LFS had it and there was no way I was passing it up. Can't wait to see how it colors up.

Thanks. Back in the day I used Iwasaki 6500K bulbs and nothing was brown. I agree that we need to see more in the 10-12k range. You may not get the super ridiculous colors of some of the blue LED's, but they sure look pretty good to me and it doesn't hurt my eyes to look at them.
