This Video is too nice not to share. The PE is insane this morning on the main tank. I wonder why it is better some days then others...

agreed but why is it better some days then others with no apparent changes LOLCrazy PE days are the best days!
How many snails?Hi guys after 3 years I feel like this tank is decent enough and need to start a new tank... I set up a new 120 Gallon Display tank with some bonsai tree Rock work and plan to select some frags from the main display for this new tenuis grow out. its going to be a long journey replicating the main system parameters and growing the selected frags out. I am also excited to see how the radian g5s compare to the g4s. In the current tank they are grown using the g4s and the new tank will be the g5s.
Below is the new 120 Gallon Display tank with the Bonsai Tree branches. this is the tank that will get the new frah cutting. Will be fun to see them grow and crust onto the branches
way to many a lot of them died and slipped upside down and rotted in the tank LOL this also may be why the po4 is super high. I took them all out though a few months before I tested but be carful of rotting dead snails if you put too manyHow many snails?
not sure but i never seen this before and do look at the coral at night i think maybe i would have seen some cloudy water from the breeding.Thanks for sharing. They all look like woolly mammoths lol. I wonder if the snails are spawning at night causing a feeding response.
Will update this soon. with pics.. its a 360 gallon system.. it has been about 4 days and the bucket is 75% full i think maybe 4 more days and it will be full a lot of fish poop lol.. i am really wondering if this drops the po4 i have not tested it gain yet.Interested in the filling of the 5 gallon bucket with skimmate. System total gallons and how many days to fill bucket is what I'd like to know.
Thanks!

We use Ecotec MP40s. we have them on random all day long with all different schedules and intensities. The idea is to get as much random flow. I dont think Tenuis love alot of flow actually. i notice when the pumps get clogged with algae it creates less flow and the PE on the tenuis seem better. Once I clean all the algae the pumps become super powerful and the PE on the corals is less. I think over a nice Gentle Mello flow is the bestBeautiful... how do you like to run your flow?? Like what modes.. position of powerheads how strong etc and what do you look for when trying to perfect flow in a reef for sps

Interesting observation. I see the same similar results with some acros I have. PE and seeming growth gets better when I neglect MP40 pump maintenance.We use Ecotec MP40s. we have them on random all day long with all different schedules and intensities.

I was looking at your goodies on the sale today and see some nice yellows coming in on your BkChem Crack Juice. Is this with higher light for ya? Mine is still pretty green from back in the original release time - 8” down from the surface.
Almost ordered the Fruit Loops and a Jolt but I was too slow
yes i am thinking they actually don't like hard flowInteresting observation. I see the same similar results with some acros I have. PE and seeming growth gets better when I neglect MP40 pump maintenance.
Hello,I was curious and wanted to know if after fragging you notice a loss in color from the frag depending on the size? I had two Walt Disney nubs that turned a pastel color while the longer one kept its vivid yellow and orange. Thank you!!
