[dvanacker]

Thanks guys..... a small update

A couple of up and comers......feels like I've had these frags for ever though (they started real small at least 1.5yrs ago)

Also a couple randoms

Oh and merry christmas, happy holidays and all the jazz....I hope all of you get to enjoy some time off with family and maybe to do some tank maintenance.

Well said Mo! That second one down is stunning. Avengers?

 

[Alavaster]

dvanacker, I have to say the colors you have maintained and achieved in your SPS are incredible! Keep it up!

Just love, love, love this one. Is it a loripes? I bought a similar piece from reef raft, but the coralite structure was much larger. I like the structure of yours more. I believe my piece is a granulosa.

How much spacing did you put in-between your frags initially? They all seem to have grown in together nicely.

 

[dvanacker]

thanks everyone....your too kind

Well said Mo! That second one down is stunning. Avengers?

Thanks....that one is the ultimate rainbow acro. Unfortunately my avengers is not looking the best....hoping its just a color down before it comes back. Currently trying to give it lots of light.

Thanks.
I'm not afraid to move and aquascape the corals if need be....I also actively trim them to get that grown in look with out all the corals bumping into each other and stinging each other. Not that long ago I let an encrusting monti encrust onto my lokani which eventually resulted in the death of the lokani....so Im even more deligant about this sorta thing.

I just ordered a frag of ultimate rainbow acro. What kind of light and flow have you found to be the best for it?

 

[dvanacker]

It definitely likes high light / flow. I had it midway and it had a somewhat brown body for a long time....since I've moved it too the top it looks much better.

Beautiful tank!

What type of salt are you using?

 

[JMLewis]

Love the Saramentosa. Always been one of my favorites.

 

[Reef and Rock]

Really spectacular tank.

 

[madkeenreefer]

Your coral selection is outstanding let alone the growth and color you are achiving with them.
Great work keep it up.
