It’s fascinating to see all the other hobbies you folks have besides your reef tanks. Scraped freshwater tank yesterday but didn’t clean it, sigh. Maybe today. Today I feed small critters, water, etc but first heading to Media PA with one of the dogs for a long walk, (Wizards Unite game playing)-then lunch at Wimpy’s. If you haven’t been there before I highly recommend it for a great burger. (Their veggie burgers are homemade, pretty sure, and delicious!)

I think it’s the haddoni he is letting go. Not the power head?
The haddoni may be finding a new home if it doesn’t get put into the another tank. My wife is kinda of attached to it, so it is sumped in her zoa tanks sump right now. She is thinking of redoing her zoa tank to have a cove for it. We shall see tomorrow after I get off work. That is her deadline, or it will find a new home. I don’t have room for it in the big tank, or it would go in there. The tank it was in, is gonna be all lps and sps. Packed as full as I can get it lol.

Okay... after a year in the making, I finally got lighting. I think I’ll make a thread for this one

Nice work! Do you think the rotating speed could impact the coral growth?

My testing with smaller models has been EXTREMELY promising. I don't want to make any claims without further research, but through observation (Time to cover a frag plug), I am seeing around 30% faster growth than the controls. I don't know yet whether to attribute this to the lighting or flow, i have to do more tests.

That makes sense. Does the speed of the rotation seem to matter?
