Bubba's SPS Journey

[bubbaque]

I was eyeballing that last night on his website! You get all the goodies!

With one message you could have one too (hopefully your wife doesn't read the forum), lol!

You know it's a gem when Adam tells you he has to cut the frag from out of his display.

Ahhh! What are you doing Bubba! She sees everything! I have to go into hiding now!

I got this new frag a couple days ago that has nice orange polyps. When it’s just under blues this coral just glows. You can see it in this phone pic on the right. Cherry bomb is to the left.

My absolute favorite acro. Mine is all ugly now after the crash but has some new growth coming along.

Hi Bubba, how is the tsa rainbow fusion doing? Does it has the color on the tsa website picture?

 

[lolgranny]

I absolutely love smooth skinned corals and I personally think this is one of the best!

Love smooth skinned ones. Those and Millie’s are my fav, it’s too bad the smooth skin all grow so slow.

Mine is healthy with good polyp extension but is still the size of a frag. I think I might cut the tip off it to see if it spurs some growth.

The pic on their website now, is accurate. They use to have an actinic pic for their main pic. The part of the coral that gets the most light gets red polyps.

Your pictures make me wish I had a DSLR lol

I agree. I look at my jolt all the time and think the same exact thing.

You had me fooled. Your pictures are great, so I always thought you used one.

You have a mighty fine choice in acros Bubba and you make them all just look gorgeous!!

That’s because he has them all

Hey Bubba - I’m asking because it was mentioned that you use a “real” camera, which I do as well. I have a Canon 5d mkiv and L series glass and I was able to take accurate pics when I was running Radiums - great color, real eye color - but now with LEDs it looks, uh, marketplace. Is the screw-on orange filter the way to go to take the “LED” wacko blue out?

Using Radion AB+ with +10 on R and G

I shoot in raw and use Lightroom to correct the temperature. If I posted pics before adjusting temperature, they would look blue also. I'm sure you could correct this issue with using a custom white balance in your camera if you didn’t want to do any post processing.

I don't use an orange filter unless I am taking pics in solid blue lighting. An orange filter will really throw your pics off unless your lighting is pretty much actinic.

Battlecorals Honeycomb is getting better and better as it's growing out.

That's really nice Bubba! How long have you had that?

 

[SneakyTortuga]

Yes I would like to know how long you’ve had it as well? The growth in your tank is insane

 

[bubbaque]

A while I would say, maybe 9 months. It sat and didn’t do anything for a long time and then all of a sudden it woke up.

This is a pic from June.

Its really not. Somethings grow and others don’t. Look at that frag of the TSA Rainbow fusion I posted yesterday. I’ve had it a few months now and it’s done nothing.

I’ve been raising alk after watching the brs video to see if I can get some of that insane growth, lol.
