That thing is absolutely beautiful!!!!
Are you using a gryphon band saw or using a dremil?
It's a concoction of meds that was given to me a couple years ago by Ryan chummingham. Recently Danny at Kung fu corals has really been pushing its use.All I heard is MerkTail. What is this?Please do explain @MERKEY
It looks like the torch has some long stalks which is good.Does this help as it contracts for the night? Think it has 16+ heads on it.
It's a concoction of meds that was given to me a couple years ago by Ryan chummingham out of Chicago. Recently Danny at Kung fu corals has really been pushing its use.
It is a bath that consists of a variety of these meds and a lot of reefers play with the amounts for different corals.
It works great on torches and other euphyllia when they get bjd or start receding for no reason.
In 4g mix dry first for 10 min with airstone, heater and power head.
500mg cipro
10 scoops chemiclean either one
After dissolved add
5 full droppers of iodine
5ml restore
5ml amino acid
5ml witch hazel
For torches the suggested time is 6 hours on initial bath.
I turn the power head off for most of the treatment after the meds ar mixed.

It will be easier to frag with longer skeletons.
You should be able to follow the heads down to the base of the skeleton and that's where you would want to cut.
When you pull it put to cut it, take a picture of it upside down and we will have a really good idea of where is the best cutting area.
Excellent, keep me posted and I'd love to help!I’m looking to frag it next Weekend. I’ve ordered some new blades for the dremil.
Thank you! A true gentleman!Excellent, keep me posted and I'd love to help!

I should add that a sponge filter is also recommended if the corals that are being treated have flesh that is coming off.I've got this printed next to my phos conversion table.
I tore down my lagoon and you took it over lolOK update time, thanks for the reminder @Lost in the Sauce
The lagoon is going through its dirty phases but the Lone Duncan that started as 1 has 4 solid heads and 2 more starting.
We added 3 fish total so far to it and they are all getting along fabulously. Achilles, koi tang, and a maculiceps. We are thinking of adding 5 or 6 anthias next.
The hard part about picking fish is there will be no lid so jumpers may and will happen. So we are going to limit the jumpers if we can. Anthias have been known to jump but hopefully the school of them will limit the fright and darting.
Added 100 gallons to the mixing station so we have 200g on hand all the time.
Also built a controller board for everything and to hide the front of the sump.
I also drilled holes in the floor and ran wires under the floor to the center of the room where the controller board goes. Everything will be nice and tiddy soon...which makes Brit happy
I'm no contractor but it will work
The seahorse tank is coming right along.
The horses already mate and are trying to exchange babies, they fail and fall to the ground and the red scrooters and snails eat them. They are clumsy at it now but practice makes perfect
The pair of red scooters are also mating and doing their dance, which is cool to watch.
We keep that tank 70-72 degrees and only have some gorgonia and gsp in it, but everything looks happy.
The 220 is hummin along, never perfect but no major issue, knock on wood.
Our biggest issue right now is over crowding. I do feel like a tank reaches a certain bio load and then things get happy. I believe we are finding that sweet spot.
I'm going to add reefbrites to the 220 this week and then a calcium reactor eventually. We are going through a gallon of kalkwasser a day on heavy mix and dosing 100ish mag and 20ish alk daily or so. It does vary but I'm thinking a calcium reactor may help.
Ed that built us the sump had a GEO reactor setup laying around so he let us have it.
I'm nervous to set it up, I've heard people crash their tanks with them so I may start it on the lagoon where there is only 1 coral.
OK enough rambling......here are the pics!!!
I was actually thinking...dang it right when I get a lagoon going Steve tears his downI tore down my lagoon and you took it over lol
All is looking good and cannot wait to see the lagoon all stocked up.
In time, yes. Already have the plans drawn up all crayons and construction paper like in excel.I was actually thinking...dang it right when I get a lagoon going Steve tears his down
I have a feeling you will have an even larger setup
I love seeing the plans you create all in colors!In time, yes. Already have the plans drawn up all crayons and construction paper like in excel.
New plans. Not going to do the “U” tank.I love seeing the plans you create all in colors!
I followed lead and did the same when we were getting the lagoon going. Trying to figure out if we wanted it in the middle or do a wall of tanks and keep adding.
Maping and drawing things out really helps.
Are your plans the ones you shared in chat or is there more to come? Always excited to see what ces next haha
That's going to be f in nuts!New plans. Not going to do the “U” tank.
As for the plans, they are to scale, colors have a meaning and @Joe Glass Cages was able to read them and build my sump lol. So you know who will be building the tanks when the time comes lol.
In addition, me not eating the crayons was a step up lol. @Lost in the Sauce see what did there.
