[MegabiteOG]

Thursday's AD update. Still doing well despite the Dino's and color is coming back on the base where the cyano was.

That's some really nice growth and coloration, Even just from a month but you can see some new branches coming off the bottom middle piece.

Photo dump time as I haven't done one for a bit.

The Dino's continue kicking my ****. Got a few 10 micron socks and vacuumed the sand bid into it with the sock sitting in the sump. Got rid of a lot of Dinos reducing the population. Hopefully with the UV and other things I'm doing I can get these suckers under control.

On to the photos. Just took a bunch of random shots a few minutes ago.

Judging by your photos O.G. You would never guess you had any issue at all . Good job

Amazing shots! You need to do a seminar on how to take professional pictures, very well done, Sir.

Thanks B. Thankfully, the Dino (at least until this point) have not affected the corals at all. For the most part, they are all on the sandbed. I'm pretty sure they're prorocentrum dinos.

Thanks man! With a decent camera and lens combo along with a little post processing in Lightroom, I think anyone can easily take nice shots.

Can't wait to take pics of my little corals when they grow up and become colonies.

@That Crusso Kid - Notice how the base has colored up in just a month after repositioning the edge bars. So happy about that.

Last ones for tonight as I threw the wider lens on.

Beautiful Orly!

Thanks Kevin! I hope you’ve been kicked out of the hospital and feeling better.

Out of the hospital and working on feeling better, thank you!

Out of the hospital and working on feeling better, thank you!

Man, that is great to hear. I’m sure you’re glad to be home. Best wishes on your continued recovery.

It's very cool that the results were so quick!

Maybe it's me but it seems you have gotten the best growth this past month too. It's clearly taller and a lot beefier.

You may be correct. I think the bigger they get, the faster they grow assuming the conditions continue to be favorable.

Here's the month to month progression. First month was short and second month was long before I started a roughly 30 day progression shots. Next measurement shot will likely by on 8/20.

Everything looks fabulous!
