Good moves!! Orphek grows everything for me I haven’t had any issues thus far, think you got the sps bug lol

I think you’re right. Don’t get me wrong I love me some lps and softies. But when I picture a reef I picture all of that below the crown of acros, montis, etc.


that and I love the idea of my coral providing homes for my smaller fish.

Edit. Funny thing is I was thinking of going with Orphek when I first started. Something about them has always been something I wanted.

until now I’d forgotten about them until I thought about using T5.

I think the bars are the best bang for your buck! That’s why I went with them ,and I agree a nice big sps colony on top of a tank looks great! One day lll have one lol

Viewing was hard but good today.

Woke up to the acro laying on the bottom of the tank with large portions bright green. Kinda have a feeling I’ll lose it.

water change and snails are on the agenda for tomorrow.

Or maybe I’ll buy myself a little coral care package from tidal gardens. They’ve got several different Pavona
Favia
Blastos
Shrooms
And even acros that I’ve had my eye on for a while.
:)... lights first

Honestly I just want to see if there’s a cool colored shroom floating around the coral system when I go grab the water tomorrow.

and yeah. The acro is on its way out. Only little bits of purple left. Skeleton is already green. Darn.

but yeah, you’re right @F i s h y. I need to get lights situated

I am aware sir. I don’t not have the money for your pretty light.

realistically I don’t have the money for the Orphek. Hence impulse buy lol
