Thanks! That's the actinics only shots... Makes things crazy though I like to view my tank under 14k mostly. Its fun to play with it in occasion though.

I own the FarmerTy garage fish room. [emoji16] No store... I'm just a hobbyist with a real big addiction problem. [emoji53]

That's all actinic shine there but honestly, it looks pretty crazy under 14k too.

Do you have a picture of it under your daylights? That does look insane in that picture.

I got it from Diesel before he shut down with acros. I honestly think it looks nothing like the RR picture... That one looks like a mille. But I know Diesel knows his acros so... I'm perplexed. [emoji53]

I found this online.....

Exactly! Oops, it looks like a tenuis... Not mille.

Here's Diesel's colony:

Photo dump weekend with the new lens. Hope everyone is enjoying their weekends!

Those pics are just beyond awesome. I think I may have found my problem. I think I have pathogenic bacteria from the large coral lost at one time. Coral frags are being nipped by a fish or something allowing infection in which kills the coral from the tip down. I have Fritz turbo start in a reactor to add non-pathogenic bacteria to hopefully out compete the pathogenic bacteria. Fingers crossed. Cause I wanna grow up to be just like @FarmerTy when I grow up. LOL

Keep fighting the good fight! I've had my share of acro issues over the year. You win out with a never-quit attitude and some dumb luck.... Okay, maybe that last part was mostly how I won out but... Either way, keep at it and thanks for tuning in!

Great pics! Corals look happy. I like your photos because they’re very natural (not too much blue, not washed out).

Thanks sawdonkey! I try to do what I can to capture their look as I see them in person. Makes me happy there are those out there that appreciate it. [emoji106][emoji106]

Love coming to your build to see what colonies of particular corals look like, not little nubs on plugs [emoji38]
