Still pretty darn nice. but definitely like the juvi pattern.

jim, ones at Exotic still have juvi pattern?

For sure. They're just not the really bright orange they are when they're very young.

Mark I don't have a current one. This is what it looked like after I set it up last year. I lost 90% of what you see in a kalk OD from the RK2 last summer. All I have now is a bunch of nubby frags.

 

[mpoletti]

Nice specimens. That is one reason that I decided to stay far away from Kalk reactors. My Ph only falls to 8.1 at night. Take a new FTS this weekend

I always wanted a 4' deep tank. In my next house, the tank is going to be 72 by at least 36-48.

 

[BreadmanMike]

The RK2 has a bug that if you don't leave one channel on all the time it will turn things on and leave them on. I came home from work one morning to find my lights on and a milky white tank. The pump on the kalk reactor ran all night mixing the kalk and nuked my tank.

ok, will go look tomorrow. maybe i'll hit jojos for the first time. Wish i could find a mystery wrasse that didnt like Cleaner shrimp.

 

[Maximus]

DOH! Guess which tang showed up at LA?

[mpoletti]

Thats an expensive fish Sang. I usually see them for $90-110.

 

[mpoletti]

Wow Davey. Are you upgrading?

Did you pull the trigger on that baby Davey??

Right on if you did :thumbsup:

 

[kdblove_99]

Heck no, $199 is a little much for me. Think i'm going to pick up 2 wrasse at AL tomorrow that will probably be close to $199

 

[Jim_S]

If they have that baby when I get my next commission check, I'm all over it

 

[mpoletti]

You scared me Davey. That fish would be 6 inches within 12-14 months

 

[kdblove_99]

yeah, i gotta know my limits. But, sometimes it is so very hard. There are so many fish i like!

I should have just done a 300 FOWLR:lol:

 

[jtarmitage]

Mark, love the new tag line. Much better than "The Coral Count".
I just have REEFitis in general. Equipment, SPS, LPS, you name it.

 

[mpoletti]

Yeah Jeremy, SPSitis is a highly concentrated strain that they are still trying to identify.

Its funny because I finally reglued down some of the pieces I fragged when Steve came cover. I will probably start making some frag packs this weekend and start the process of clearing out my zoas and some of the SPS. I might even add that large piece of LR to my tank. That should make a few frags when I attempt to do that

 

[tbone28]

There is NO known cure for SPSitis

did I hear someone say Clearing out my zoas

I will start with my zoas and make a decision about everything else after that.
