HelloReef 15g - The Oasis

[Steven Garland]

Sup !!!

I have had some LPS frags in the 8g for a few weeks. All of which were hardly alive,very little flesh.. Fast forward a few weeks,they have grown flesh and color back and heading for greatness.

So I went ahead and chucked 2 Acan's and a Favia in there to see how they fair.

Swapped from the 10g to the 15g cube,went seamlessly. White channel stopped working on my Hydra,so thats fun.

The one pink acan in the 3rd picture BLEW UP in size after swapping it to the 8g,this is how big it was when I got home today. Can't even tell there is a 2nd polyp behind the one in the pic.

Few quick shots of the 15g this morning,everything is looking so good.

lol. Yeah Man everything is good. it summer time and my busy season. It’s been nothing but working 6-7 days a week. Can’t wait till it’s over. lol
I’ve got a reefer 170 and 90g frag tank set up and trying to grow stuff. Or I should say keeping it alive right now.
That’s what it seems like. Can’t really find acans anymore. Wish I knew who imported them and start buying a few colonies to chop up.

Been slowly moving zoa's from the 15g into the 8g. Unedited and straight from my phone. I have been using a older NanoBox Tide on/off with just running 4x royal blues ans 2 violets. But I did build a light with 2x Luxeon M royal blues on 1 channel running at 1050mah and another channels with Luxeon ES warm white,Lux ES neutral white,Lux C mint,Lux ES cool blue and lux ES cyan,2 Lux royals and Semi violets.

Few pics while I did a .5g WC on the 8g.

Glued most of my zoa's I moved over from the 15g. Took majority of the acan's out of the 15g as well. I have 2 asain acan's from @Living Reef Orlando I need to pick up. I need to find more "deepwater" "asain" acan's. So @Living Reef Orlando hook it up.

I built a rock out of some cured rock,but it was a little too bulky for my liking. So it went in the 15g.

Here are a few shots of the tank from earlier today:

 

[Steven Garland]

Picked up my 2 asain acan's from @Living Reef Orlando today. Whew these are FIRE !!! I have 4 more asain/deepwaters coming from Kung Fu Corals and a WWC Ruby Red Micro coming from Growhouse Aquatics next week.

Well reefers for who are following.. the 15g and the 8g got broken down and replace with a 6g shallow rimless tank. I was running out of room and well I am slowly shifting to all LPS atm. I still have the 8g and bought a used Noopsyche K7 mini for it and I think I have some other goodies on the to-order list as well.

 

[Steven Garland]

Picked up a few frags from LRO and WWC sales a few weeks ago and today. Getting out of the zoa game,they just don't do it for me anymore.

WWC pick ups:
Merlot Chalice
Kamikaze Chalice
Polar Flame Chalice
Deja Blue Rainbow Chalice
Banana Boom Chalice
Fantasmo Favia

LRO pick ups:
Outer Space Favia
Prismatic Favia
Goldrush Favia
