I do not see any difference
The only difference I see is in the first pic. The yellow coralite edges in the center of the colony are a bit more expressed in the second version. Nit picky, but that's all I see.
Thanks guys. Was just seeing if it was worth the effort to upload to an external site to host. If people aren’t seeing much of a difference, l’ll roll with the status quo.

I rarely use my cellphone for pictures. I upload to Lightroom from a DSLR to make the picture look like I see it in the tank. Then use Flickr to post on forum.

if you click on the photo and go to Flickr's website they do look more crisp/clear and are bigger which is always good :)

However on the forum viewing, I cannot really tell a difference.

I always noticed pictures posted by people look a lot more fuzzy on a desktop computer than my phone.

Looks like you have great colors still, despite running lower NO3 now, you got the sulfur reactor tuned well, it seems.

Do you have a pic. of a coral of yours that is not happy/beautiful? or do they all thrive?
Cheers! Mark
Oh man, I'll get some snaps this week. Got a good story about my sulfur denitrator experience.

If these are the corals that aren’t happy and thriving I will quit before I even get back in. No way I can even hope to compare to these “unhappy” corals. :)

In all seriousness, great looking corals as always. Ialways look forward to you posting pictures of this tank.

how far are you lights off the corals in your frag tank?
16-18”

These pics may be before nitrates completely dropped to 2.5ppm. I’ve shut off my denitrator currently.

Haha, my bad. Had no time to take ugly coral photos yet. But still had some pics I hadn’t posted yet that I already took so I kept pumping the pics.

I don’t dose anything. I just feed the fish like no tomorrow.
And you have NO3 and PO4 feeding fishes only?
If i don't add something in the tank, my inorganic values stay at 0.
Do you have a lot of fishes?
Thanks
