Meeting Feb 23rd?

[Tomoko Schum]

Do you want a mounted frag? I know some reefers prefer unmounted frags in general. I typically cut an acro frag off the base it comes with. However, you don't have to worry about AEFW with birdsnest.

I always cut the frag off the base too.
So in my case at least, Unmounted

 

[Tomoko Schum]

I have the birdsnest in a few places in my 180. They look different depending on their locations/light conditions.
Here is the one on the left hand side - somewhat low in the tank.

The mother colony which was shoved into the back corner of the tank:

 

[Monkeynaut]

They both look great! My little girls Love pink!
Now I am looking at that brown coral with blue tips behind it and thinking the frag in my tank is going to overgrow its placement. Is that one from Harry? I think that is the same as what I have at least... lol.

 

[Tomoko Schum]

It's Miami orchid. Yes, it came from Harry. If I place it right under the light, it lose all the brownish color and become white and blue. However, it is a fast growing coral and takes up all the prime space, just like the pink birdsnest ;).

That must be what I have

 

[GWHouston]

I wish I was ready for some of your frags, but I can't keep the corals alive. Mushrooms are better but all my lps seem to fade away. I've resolved to the fact it may be summer before I add anymore.

 

[Tomoko Schum]

Hang in there. You'll get there, I am sure.

 

[Tomoko Schum]

I took these pictures with my iPhone 7 without any filter. The colors came out just fine to my surprise. I used to have to adjust the white balance and edit the picture afterward to get rid of extra blue color. If it was a bit less grainy, I'd be really happy.

 

[beaslbob]

My new auto topoff system seems to be working fine.

If anyone is interested in an auto top off system, I can bring circuit diagrams, samples of the parts, discussion on how it works and so on.

If nothing else perhaps you experts can show what I should have done. LOL

that is if V and me make it.

An auto topoff is a bucket and pump the pumps water to a container to keep the level in that container constant.

now you've heard of it. LOL

If I get really really ambitious I may even post a circuit diagram here.

thanks Will c what I can do.

 

[Brew12]

This is the list of people that have mentioned they are coming or have inquired about the meeting in this thread.

I have updated the first post of this thread with the start time and location of the meeting. There will be at least one drawing for a SPS coral.

Also I will bring the microscope out and cast it to the TV screen. @Tomoko Schum will bring some bugs for us to look at right?
