I know this is from a while back, but can you tell what the large colonies of zoas are? thanks!
The reddish ones on the top left are no-names. The yellow ones on the bottom right are Sunny-Ds.

Beautiful. What’s your blue/white percentages here?OP here, I figure an updated tank pic is due. My sand remains unwashed and my spectrum is still in the 10k range. I like lots of PAR and PUR. To each his/her own, live and let live.

Lol. So because I disagree, I have issues and need to disconnect?
no thanks. I’ve seen what disengagement due to not being part of the in crowd results in. Y’all can keep the cult back-slapping going, but I’m not going to not argue against flawed logic or untrue statements
And he doesn’t bother me on a personal level. I don’t know him. But I’ve spent 25 years fighting against bad science, and the parallels I’ve seen doing that, and the stuff that ROUTINELY comes up in his threads is astonishing.
No history of ‘disagreements’ but I’m not denying I’ve been in several of his threads and voiced concerns, only to be shut down. I also didn’t appreciate the way an innocuous ‘kelvin’ thread turned into an advertisement for his ‘work thread’ and had non-verifiable science sounding concepts in it that I’ve seen trip up new tank owners in the pastWell my bad, it felt like you were targeting the dude but based on your comment I guess you guys have history of disagreements. I have a bad habit of ignoring usernames on forums and just reading posts. "Bad science" describes like 80% of the products on this industry.
I’ve seen your ‘followers’ admonish and embarrass at least three new reefers who followed your ‘protocol’ on a new tank only to end up with serious problems, and to be told they did something wrong. Ive been the recipient of several long screed replies that contained partly non-sensical and irrelevant content, something that I can only describe as a ‘filibuster’ attempt to head off further comments.I never shut anyone down, and disagreements evolve our hobby they’re good for science. I have too many work jobs in messages and on posts to go back and forth on theory battles too long, so I let folks state their peace and then I move on to collecting actual outcomes so we can find patterns for use later.
May I ask what you have the kessils dialed in at in this picture?Yes, three A360WEs
This is exactly what I’m talking about...Were they using bad English or bad science, that’s two different offenses, only one I care bout
this can be your one link, post the screed they rambled. I hope it was a nitrite duel
Why are you even still in this thread? You’ve hawked out your blue light theory, some people have objections- you can leave now.Were they using bad English or bad science

Find where the nutrients are coming from and sort that out first. If you don’t- you’ll be stuck at your current ‘low white’ level pretty much permanently. It’ll just come back once you turn them up againI live the whiter look way better but right now I turned down my whites as I’m fighting a little bit of a algae bloom
“Science”Neil we gotta chill they only want to show pics of excellent tanks here. If you don’t like my science ignore it.
I think my problems is I’m bottomed out on po4 and no3 and that’s befor I had algae problemsFind where the nutrients are coming from and sort that out first. If you don’t- you’ll be stuck at your current ‘low white’ level pretty much permanently. It’ll just come back once you turn them up again
I run a ‘daylight’ tank between 8am and 6pm, and haven’t had algae in years. Nutrients are the more pressing issue, particularly if YOU want to dictate what the spectrum is, and not let a ‘pest’ algae dictate for you
You can’t get algae without food. The zero you are measuring is because the algae is consuming it.I think my problems is I’m bottomed out on po4 and no3 and that’s befor I had algae problems
