For dosing i use BRS alk, cal, and mag. Trace elements are done with Red Sea Trace Colors. Aminos are Aquavitro Fuel. Coral spot feeding with Reef Roids. I try to do a 20-30 gallon WC every two weeks but that doesn't happen all the time. Filter socks, Nyos skimmer and fuge. I have an auto feeder go off 3 times a day, I feed 1 cube of mysis twice a day, and nori every day. I do have 16 fish so i feed a lot.What is your dosing regiment, and nutrients control? I see you have such great growth. Thx
That is a lot of feedings !! WowFor dosing i use BRS alk, cal, and mag. Trace elements are done with Red Sea Trace Colors. Aminos are Aquavitro Fuel. Coral spot feeding with Reef Roids.

I try keep my numbers, alk-8.5 to 9.2, cal-400 to 450, mag 1300-1400, NO3~5 to 10 and PO4-0.02 to 0.07
Last test was alk-9, cal-400, mag-1300, NO3-2.5, PO4-0.05
After seeing your Angry Bird colony in a couple different threads, I found this hoping to see what it looked like when you got it. Wow! What a difference in 15-months. Good job! How is the TGC Acrolandia doing?A few pics of some of my favorites.

Ya its a great grower for me and Ive cut 3 or 4 frags already too..Acrolandia is going slower unfortunately and just fully encrusted, no new branchesAfter seeing your Angry Bird colony in a couple different threads, I found this hoping to see what it looked like when you got it.

Great grower and you have it super colored up, like most your sticks. With your auto feeder 3x a day, what is that dropping, just pellets?Ya its a great grower for me and Ive cut 3 or 4 frags already too..Acrolandia is going slower unfortunately and just fully encrusted, no new branches
Yep, I use the 3 different types of Nyos pellets mixed togetherGreat grower and you have it super colored up, like most your sticks. With your auto feeder 3x a day, what is that dropping, just pellets?
Thank you. It fully encrusted its disk in about 8 months. Took another 4 or so for branches to grow out.Awesome tank and nice coral collections!
How long you have the cherry Bomb started branching?
Just keep things as stable as possible. Frag tank is doing good. Yes its all one system. Ive moved some pieces over but still need to do another 10 or so. Ive got a list of corals I still want to get but still no room in the display.Thank you, mine took similar time for branching, but still a slow growth!
How is your frag tank doing? Did you hook it to the DT or a separate system?
Thanks. I'll get a few pics this weekend. Tank has been going through some troubles over the last year and life has been so busy its not making things easier.Update/ picture of the haymaker and homewrecker? Fantastic tank.
Here's whats left of them. Over the last year+ the tank has gone through quite a few problem events. My nutrients have bottomed out to 0's and spiked, had an inverted Redfield Ratio, had a case of dinos, a few Alk drops, ATO and heater failures. You name it, I probably went through it last year. I lost a dozen or two frags/colonies. The ones that survived have lost A LOT of their colors but are slowly getting some back. I probably could have avoided most of these problems but work/life got so busy last year.Update/ picture of the haymaker and homewrecker? Fantastic tank.
Wow those are big colonies! Glad things are back on track, thanks for the update.Here's whats left of them. Over the last year+ the tank has gone through quite a few problem events.

The tank is doing better now but still has a long way to go.
