yeah, Mohawks have always done pretty well for me.. about 3-4 polyps/month is average... :)

yeah, the Echino is pretty nice.. I hope it colors up a little more and develop the green edges.. TFG had a frag of the best looking Green Aussie I've seen yet.. it was bright green with very deep purple center... it was beautiful... but he only had a "fraglet"... I hope he brings in a colony of it next shipment... :)

Thanks Charles and Chris.. :)

I think for my Aussies, they prefer less lighting... I just brought back the eggcrate and 1 sheet of black fiber glass screen and they are more puffy than ever... I'm not sure how it'll affect their colors but most of my corals seem like they are a little bigger than usual when they were being pounded by the 250w DE MH... I'll be keeping the eggcrate and black screen for atleast 2-3 months to see the long term effect on coloration, growth, and appearance of the corals...

dang I wish my Mohawks looked like those.


Mine just don't have that kind of color.

I am going to grab that aussie blasto in a couple of weeks. I want it to relax a little before I get it. It was a bright peach color with neon pink and red in it. I was going to buy it then, but Jeff said he would hold onto it. That purple aussie was just awesome.

Interesting. I have mine under 3.5" of water and most of them are loving it. I'm using a 250w Radium bulb.

I think it's because I'm running DE's.. maybe, maybe not... but I'll try out the screen and crate for now.. I'll have updated pics every couple of weeks.. :)

Man Marv,

I cannot believe how well things grow for you! It is simply amazing... I hope to get half as good of growth as you do

 

[MarvinsReef]

Thanks Steve and Scott...

yeah, I dunno what it is but I'm not complaining one bit.. ;)

I've got a few others progression shots I'm going to post in the next couple of days... :)
