few SPS pic's

one of the best tanks i´ve seen here in a long time. Do you use any type of bacteria ? vodka?
Where do you get that polyp extension? :p

great tank
 
WOW!!!! Fantastic coloration!!!! Your set up again sets the example that consistant water changes are a key for sucess!
 
WOW thanks everyone I appreciate the compliments.

Fish:
1 Harlequin Tusk
1 powder blue tang
1 chocolate tang
1 Goby & pistol pair
5 Bimac Anhtias
Weasse:
1 Super Male Lineatus
1 Super Male Flame
1 Super Male Pink Margin My favorite right now.
1 Super male Male Yellow Flanked
1 Christmas

I run no actincs thats why I run 20k that are heavy on the blue with good pop. I do use some LED for dusk.

The yellow frag is pink lemonade IMO it is well worth the price just because it hard to find a yellow coral not to mention on with pink polyps. You can see part of the shade of fall frag to the right of it.

No I do not. The only thing I use is elos amnios but not very constantly here lately. It can help with deeper richer color if you are low on fish poo. I used it regularly on my former tank with good results but have not on this set up. I have alot more fish and do not really need it as much.

My Po4 is .04 tested with a hanna meter Nitrates are undetectable.

hmmm my doubt was about the colors that you present. your polyp extension is so nice that i think that your nutrient levels were too high to present that color .
Since i decide to have a low population of fishes i start dosing calcium nitrate to get better color intensity and polyp extension but elos amino can be a option also.

keep your eyes on Po4. can be dangerous.
 
My colors are real down load the pic and play with them yourself if you like. I shout in Raw format and all I do is white balance correction sometimes adjust brightness. Besides I have pictures of some of the same corals from an earlier tank to compare to.

You are free to doubt my color but that just shows jealousy. As for the Po4 I am not a newby and my results speak for themselves.

Happy reefing

Colors look correct to me without anything out of the ordinary & I have the same stellar extension. Excellent work.

If I posted my tank, people would claim the same BS because they cannot keep the same colors with good extension. Thank goodness a ton of locals have seen it in person and can verify my tank *LOL* One of the reason I get top dollar for my frags from the locals. Cannot wait to see this tank in another 6 months or more!

Garage Thanks! It's kind of funny but BS at the same time.

I have a build thread on my local forum with comments from people who have seen my tank in person as well. Atlanta reef club large tank forum for those that doubt. Titled Joe's 156 is Kind of big.

If I did my bad but it sounded if you were doubting "the colors I represent " I believe were the words you used.
