Battlecorals Bliss and Shag Priority discussion thread

[rcpalmer1]

My PE on the shag.

Wish I could post a video to show how crazy they flail around in the flow.

I was taking my March entry pic. Just turned the pumps and took a 30sec clip. The current doesn't get up to speed until about half way.

 

[Battlecorals]

no It's ok I guess I got 2 frags for 300

definitely a miscommunication. I only sent the contest frag and a freebie. Sorry for any confusion Mark. PM sent

 

[rcpalmer1]

I'm confused. I thought this thread was for official entry only? Or do we enter our monthly pics here also? Thanks.

From my understanding only the post with a picture within 3 days of recieving the frag and one pic every month should be in the official thread. All other questions, comments, and discussion should be here. This is my first contest so I may be wrong. I was waiting to see if someone else would answer but I haven't seen any response.

Well, if no one answers I guess we'll wait to see where the monthly pics get posted.

I keep mine in a high flow area, with good PE. It looks like little strings blowing around

I'm going with lots of flow and about 340 par on my shag. It's directly in front of an MP 40 about 17 inches out and also gets cross current from a gyre on the rear wall. So far PE is good.

That's about what I have also. I'm going to let it get over shipping and used to my tank. It should get better in a week. Besides, I have my lighting in acclimation mode.

Fwiw, my box was stuck in Memphis also, for a day. I was sure they would all be goners. The only one I lost from the delayed shipment was the bliss, so still waiting for a replacement.
However, the BB unicorn and blood bank survived.
So here are pics of those the day I recieved.

Not sure exactly, dealing with some phosphate swings and low nitrates. Might frag what is left of it tomorrow.
