Hey Mayor Crabs, after 18 months, this happened. I think it means you’re a grandpa now. ;Hilarious

I am a fan of ATI T5. This is the 8 X 80 watt (yeah, I need to clean the splash guard). Over the first 6 months or so of use, my 2 Part consumption increased from 180ml to 288ml daily. (Yeah, somebody needs to learn me up on CaRx.)

Downsides?
a) I miss me some shimmer.
b) Generate some serious heat
c) sunburned forearms (+400 PAR eight inches below turbulent surface)

Thank you. I believe you are talking about the purple stylopora. Very fast grower and taking over the center outcompetes the montis , bubblegum digi and acros. I cannot even get the mag cleaner through there now. Harvest time!

I love foxface for how hard they graze in my tanks. I only keep working fish (except for those the wife/kids demand).

I have a few zebrasomas that can match the foxface work ethic. But that fish is magnificent looking. Tell me it only eats pellets so I won't die of jealousy.
