Might as well raid my tank. Plating montiporas growth from 1" frags to a size of dinner plates in 12 months in my tank. I have one right now. Stags too. I am in Roseville.

That's an awesome job, Glenn. Great work!

Thanks Art. I am also getting better with the camera and Lightroom.

Looking good. Nice growth.

 

[Apisto]

Nice! You got a deal on the "cali tort". That austera is one of my favorite acros and it looks like you have grown a beautiful colony :bigeyes:

From Alex - the coral garden purchased in early 2013

As of 2/16/14 - I love the color on this one

 

[psykobowler]

Purchased from Aquarium Depot when they were still operating by Denios. Not sure what it was but it also looks like an austera.

as of 2/16/2014 - sorry for the dim lighting. It is situated close to the end of the tank.

 

[psykobowler]

I had this one identified a while back - ecorals unknown. It came from kim (miracles38).

As of 2/16/14 - this thing exploded in growth and color when I changed bulbs in November.

 

[psykobowler]

Just posting pictures as of today 7/2/14.
It is harder to take pictures nowadays. Fish are always blocking the corals.

[Notquiterite]

beautiful, I love seeing the before and after shots. Thank you!

 

[mayjong]

love the angels!

 

[psykobowler]

The large angels and the copperband wiped out all the Aptasia in the display. I used to have an infestation. Best thing I had ever done was to add the angels.

It's all about ozone man

 

[psykobowler]

Absolutely. I pretty much just dump the angels directly from aquarium depot and let the ozone deal with any exoparasites. Healthy fish healthy corals.
