got me two of the Cruz hg torches. Actually really nice, I had a huge Taiwanese hg colony. Honestly looks nothing close to how bright this one is.
 
Watching my jds and strats grow is absolutely stressful. I might pop the jds off and put them on this frag plate.

The product sounds like it would be legit, but who knows. It's bone joint filler mixed with calcium carbonate. Not chwap either

Thought I would plug this in also. Some supplemental skeleton for the calcium reactor.

Isn’t the product supposed to be mainly targeted on stony corals?

Yea so unfortunately in their white paper they used out of all things a Hollywood stunner for their specimen. Can tell you right now, you can cut the same size 20 30 frags of those potatoe chip chalices and you'd have a few that would grow considerably quicker. Which is also odd, they don't tend to encrust at all, just dish out from the point of contact. Their claims say the coral incorporates their own skin into they're product when allowed to grow over it, which the coral would need to encrust first to use the plugs property's.

Yeah I am just confused on how a zoa for example could benefit from this. I could see sps benefiting from it. Only time will tell looking forward for the results!

still waiting to use it.
 
Why you gotta do this to me? I can barely handle my current addictions, man I just caught my self drooling again. All joking aside you'd better be proud of what you've accomplished here. Every piece is remarkable, Thanks for not hiding these.
 
So your DT is a full mixed reef tank and not just ridiculous SPS?
Yes mixed. You know surprisingly, I can't do mushrooms anymore. They just all detach, I've had dozens of highend mushrooms. All sitting in a container inside my sump unhappy.

Thank you! The pictures and engagement keep things exciting for me. Definitely a great way to keep interest inside the hobby long term.

Have you tried treating them with antibacterial meds? Cipro, amoxicillin? Even chemiclean I've heard can help. Turns white at the foot/base of the shroom in assuming.
