Hey All,
Just thought I share with you some before and after pics of the growth of some corals that I have in my tanks.
Enjoy!

And now that it's been stable for 2 months it's probably about to really turn on...I always consider 2 to 3 months to be when things decide to START growing....
 
Well guys as for what I'm doing:
1. Dose kalk every three days
2. Two part solution for four days
3. Logol's solution droplets goes day 1, 3 drops, day two 3 drops, day 3 two drops, day 4 two drops, day 5 one drop
4. Water flow is high, 2 koralia, 2 maxi jets, one 802 powerhead
5. I do feed two different sources of coral food, frozen and freeze dried after every water change( every 3 wks, 25%)

Lights are 3, 175 MH's coral vue 14K, 2 96 watt actincs, placed appx. 6 inches from the top of the tank.

I will continue to moniter growth. My hammer heads and frog spawns don't seem to have any visable growth but they are opened wide all the time.
