Shallow 80g SPS Build

[Leishman]

Grown in quite well since I started this thing back in November. See post #188
Time to sell it

Starting to fill in nicely.

Kalk an no longer sustain the Alk and Ca all alone. Noticed recession at the base of my Aussie A. Horrida on Friday night, and sure enough my Alk was at 6.7

Quick water change and set up my dosing system. Things look way better than I thought they would at that level.

Cut my Turbinaria Heronensis hoping to spur a more interesting growth pattern like the one in the below RB article.

Poked a hole in my Setosa to mount a Red Dragon frag. Should have picked a more contrasting colored frag for a more dramatic effect.

Great looking tank and build, filling in nicely.

Thanks! My goal of only adding small frags is making this tank take forever to fill in.

Patience.

Accidentally left my lights on for 48+ hours. Corals looking semi bleached. Not happy with myself right now.

Need a cheap timer just to turn them off and on ;)

 

[Leishman]

They are on my Apex

 

[Leishman]

Turned them on off cycle to sell some frags. Forgot to flip them back to Auto.

 

[Fudsey]

Oh bummer.....

 

[Leishman]

Still lots of bleached corals

Accidentally busted my largest colony. Thankfully we have club meeting in two weeks.

 

[Fudsey]

Wish I was in your club ;)

Was voted tank of the month for May at my local club. Had to clean things up a bit to take pics. Not sure I like the mini island of rescued stuff from the frag tank to the right.
