A few of my SPS
- Thread starter Oldude
- Start date
The rainbow monti was getting out of hand and encroaching on several acro colonies so I showed it who's boss with a muriatic acid treatment.
Moved this piece up front to color back up under the MH's - should be pretty much all purple. Browned out a bit in the rear of the tank.

Thank you kindly - I appreciate you stopping by for a look
Thanks Mike - I think I might do another Furan dip but the SSC appears to be on the mend.
I run the Vortechs on Lagoon mode and have 2 of the MP60's on a random wave cycle. I run the MP60's at only about 65% or they suck air down from the surface and blow too hard for some of the corals.

Good News!! Looks like my SSC is making a recovery and making a comeback from the "bacterial infection" after the Furan dips.
Areas I assumed were dead are starting to color up again. :thumbsup:
Good to hear Greg, you can definitely see the pigment returning to those affected areas. I too am really digging the way that minty base acro is turning out.
Glad you showed that monti the sharp end of the stick mate, you know it's just taking up acro space.........
They do run pretty hot - I never equated it to that particular mode. What mode are you running yours at?Happy for the SSC!
The laggon mode always heated mine vey much,so i've never used it for a long period.
Thanks for the reply!
Thanks - yes Furan is interesting stuff. The first pic you are asking about is acropora plana.
Thanks Biggles - it's too bad that monti is so invasive - it is rather pretty but not worth risking my acros over.Good to hear Greg, you can definitely see the pigment returning to those affected areas. I too am really digging the way that minty base acro is turning out.

I always switch between constant(50-60%) and reef crest,greg!
Especially on reef crest it doesn't get hot at all.
Don't know if heat could shorten pump's life or something else but i try not to find out
I almost consider montis a pest too
Especially the encrusting ones!
If i do try one again it will be placed far far away from my main scape,in a separate small rock

Thanks I think I'll try the reef crest setting and see what it does.
You might want to try the 'more bloody pics' setting while you're at it Greg................
:lmao::lol::lmao:
I just got a new camera but am having a hard time getting the actual picture to look like what I am seeing in the viewer. It is making me feel pretty stupid :debi:

Which camera is it? I swear probably half the people in the SPS forum have really good SPS colours but cannot show the colours well because of the photography. [Of course Biggles dabbles in extreme photoshopping practices and food colouring.
