Hi all, this is only my second post here, long time reader first time poster lol, some stunning tanks here, anyway, so as I've had my tank for a year now with mainly softies and some lps, about 5 months ago I got a nice stag acro it's teal in color
that's a photo of it a couple of days ago from the side of my tank, , it's doubled in sized and its colours have really popped, it's also an aqua cultured frag, seeing as that's going so well, I took the plunge and got some cheap pieces from my lfs, the Mille is quite brown but has pink tips and very faint patches of pink throughout the rest of the piece, the other 2 aren't as brown, I'll post some photos of all 3, so my question is, how long to you guys think it will take for color to come back to these pieces, they look like they're wild just due to the size, my water params are, sg 1.025, cal 450, alk 8.2, mag 1380, ammo 0, trite 0, trate 0, phos .10 I am using biopellets, octopus nwb 150 skimmer and tlf phosban reactor(have to change media) these reading are as of right now, and are usually consistent apart from the po4 which has crept up due to needing to replace gfo
and one of the whole tank
