Buildup of a 90 gallon Reef (picture intensive)

[thrlride]

This frogspawn has about 7 or 8 new heads growning out the side!

In a sad note, in the past I found some zoo eating nudi's. Well, I went searching last night and found a total of 10!

I found 6 just on the frag of blueish/gray/orange zoos I got from you JR.

And in a positive note, I have a couple of pictures of some new equipment I got, I'll post those later on.

Nice zoo's I think that of all my corals I like my zoo's the most. The colors are great, and they are so easy to take care of.

 

[thrlride]

Thanks! I hope the blues with burgundy rings take off. The blue is almost cloudy. Maybe I should name them something strange and make a bundle!

 

[AJP]

Yeah becuase that is the cool thing to do. Also if they do take off and you want to frag them let me know, we can trade. I have a very sexy solid orange that looks like a hunting vest it is so bright. If it takes off it will be awesome.

 

[thrlride]

Got a picture of those? I do like the bright orange ones.

Things are really looking good Ryan, but emtpy that skimmer cup

 

[AJP]

I will see what I can find. They are nice. Will probably be a day or so as the lights are off right now.

 

[AJP]

Ok I found this pic on my comp, it isnt the greatest, but it will give you an idea. Needs to grow in some more, there are about 10 polyps right now, as well as a two other colors on the rock. Pic was taken under 250w 20,000k DE metal halides.

 

[thrlride]

Nice color! I have some bright orange with yellow rings growing. They like lower light. They started opening a lot more when I put them in the shadows of my 250 watt DE 14k's.

 

[AJP]

Oh these are normally wide open, they are on the sand bed of a 21inch deep tank, right under the light. I will try and get you a better pic, but they are awesome in real life. Also I have one with the same skirt and a lime green center, and lime green skirt with an orange center.

 

[thrlride]

Sounds nice!

 

[AJP]

Yes and if they start growning, they to can be yours

 

[Jamesurq]

wow Ryan - got the reactor online huh? Were you really at a point you needed it yet?

I'm still able to get by on kalk. I'm riding the 10% Oceanic weekly change and heavy kalk drip train as long as I can.

Let me know how you like that reactor.

Also I have one with the same skirt and a lime green center, and lime green skirt with an orange center.

Adam, do your look like these if so you will really like them under the 20ks. i run 20k XMs and these green skirts are prolly my fastest growers

Ryan, i like that new mixed zoa rock. looks nice. do you have any good shots of that clam in the foreground of the first zoa pic?


James, im with you Oceanic and kalk only.

 

[AJP]

Those are close but the green goes towards the mouth a little further.

Have you tried feeding the tangs some Frozen Formula Two yet?

The tank looks fantastic!
