Been using only Fritz in my tank for the past 1.5 years. Had nothing but great results with it!

The rest of us do not get to mix our Fritz with corn dogs and chili dogs. The secret to a great reef is revealed at last!

Do you put in all 5 chili dogs at once, or do you space them out over 24 hours?

I’m hungry now... :D

Soon featuring in the sponsor section of this mighty forum...

On another note...
@SchnitzelReef , do you know what is the alkalinity you get of the freshly mixed Fritz salt?
Specs say 8.0-9.0 dKH... correct?

Amazing thread and tank progression from frags do mature colonies. Love how healthy ur corals looks with pen and growth.

Crazy impressive. Wish you were in Texas so I could go frag crazy and fill my tank!

@Ashish Patel,

Just started using IO. Had a huge problem with high CA so I needed to use a “fish salt” to get it down. 40g of IO at 1.026 & 78 degrees mused I’m at 11dkh for me. 7ml of muriatic got me down to 7.8-8dkh. Mg of 1350 and ca of 430. Two changes got me down to 470ca from 580!

Regular old instant ocean to the rescue!

Been super busy with a new business and a new baby. Tank is cruising along. I did lose a couple small colonies that were getting completely shadowed by larger plating SPS. Luckily they weren’t anything special.

I don’t have any new pics, I’ll get some soon. Corals are getting HUGE

 

[SchnitzelReef]

I haven’t been posting many pics lately cuz I got a new iPhone XS and the camera isn’t as good. It’s like it tries to over compensate for the bright blue lights, and the orange filter doesn’t work and if I don’t use the orange filter pics look just as bad. Kinda bummed. The older iPhone camera took great pics with the orange filter.

I'm not familiar with the new iPhone, does it have a "pro" mode? My Samsung does and in there I can change white balance and ISO settings. That really helps.

 

[Ashish Patel]

Your corals are growing too fast... You have to slow it down!!!!:D

 

[Reefltx]

Looks like time to trim!!
