these frags are Drooooooly
I'm so temping to save a few of these frags for the new grow out but the tank is just not ready. I ordered a new skimmer and also ordered Ecotech MP40s for flow. Will update once they come in to show how they are installed and why..some of
thank you sir!!!!@shane backer I gotta say you grow some beautiful coral!!!
@shane backer is there a icp test company that you preferred to use over others to validate your tests? I had done one awhile back with ati but they did not put up my RODI result and haven’t ever responded to my emails, so if you have a different one that you prefer would you recommend one?
Shane, do you do regular water changes? And would you recommend supplementing trace elements?
What's the super bushy red polyped one in the middle?
Dude, have you not seen his pictures are the beginning of this thread.I’ve seen quite the opposite regarding color and health when they’re high of levels as you suggest. In fact, I see better coloration, health, PE, when levels are low, in my own and many seasoned hobbyists tanks. I’m sure we all agree you need some, but not double digit NO3 or residual levels that high.
What about the darker red one next to it?This one is SBB " Gumball Machine"
Dude, those blue light pics, dude???????????Dude, have you not seen his pictures are the beginning of this thread.
Hahah such a hater. Lol bet you can’t grow coral . Move on man.Dude, those blue light pics, dude???????????
Nope. Can’t grow anything or color anything up. You’re right. You must be THE acro authority. How do I learn to be like you? Man, I wish I wake up to a tank that is full of stuff like yours and I can make millions of dollars and be a thousandaire like you. You’re my hero!Hahah such a hater. Lol bet you can’t grow coral . Move on man.
There really is no need to be like this. @SeaDweller has some of the nicest tanks I've seen, and makes darn good points. Most people are not able to run stick tanks how shane can. EVERY TANK IS DIFFERENT. SD was giving his opinion. There is no need to be confrontational and insulting.Hahah such a hater. Lol bet you can’t grow coral . Move on man.
Haha, thanks. I like all my sticks white. That means they’re pure right? Funny thing is a few days later they become green, and hairy. And the tangs and crabs come by to preen them. Odd, right?There really is no need to be like this. @SeaDweller has some of the nicest tanks I've seen, and makes darn good points. Most people are not able to run stick tanks how shane can.

Just beautiful first pic what acro is the blue yellow and red oneHi 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
I want one of these is this a coral that is still available or you can’t find it onlineYes of course I will post tons of pictures. Stay tuned!!!!!!!! the Idea is as i cut frags for the new display i will share all the mother pics also, as well as progress shots of each of the tenuis Frags. Since you asked Ill start with this one.. This is the SBB " Half Baked"- these pics are courtesy of Michael Vargas! @MichaelVargasPhotography
Looks like @Jesus didn’t keep sticksFor the record, everyone has their own way of doing things and person X or Y or Z does everything differently. I could care less how Shane or Bubba or Rev or JDA or Chasswood or Camaro Show or Big E or Mr. V or even Jesus himself run their tanks: that’s their system, it works for them!
You want to be the best, then you learn to pick people’s brains and you filter out what may or may not work from their methodology. You align your views with theirs and that’s how you have a successful tank. Learn and learn, trial and error
Now can someone copy Shane’s method? I’d argue NO; Not unless you do everything to the T like he does; he gets the results he gets cuz that’s his system.
If people can’t have mature dialogue, then this site is worthless. Even the post that I made to Shane was answered and left at that- there’s no after thought to it. And then this guy comes up and tries to prove some “point?” Who’s the one that needs to move on? Grow up, “dude”.
