my hammer has 2x24 watts...weak lighting but is extremely healthy..however it does not like flow..ever since i introduced my new flow system things are all going wrong.
Yeah I have a very low flow on them and they are doing great I mean when I first got them to now they have all grown in size. I just got a new wave front tank so it should change the direction of flow and I will put them back in a low flow area so it can grow more. Thanks for posting maybe cut your flow back I really had to play with mine to get it right for the coral.

Hi Guys!
I've been out of the hobby for nearly a decade and starting to come back right now ; just stated my QT 72g on Aug-10th - with:
- 02 x tunze 6025 - 660gph
- 06 x Giesemann 39w:
02 x Pure Actinic
02 x Actinic+
02 x AquaBlue+
- 05 x ProdiBio BioDigest's vial
- 05 x ProdiBio Stop Ammo's vials
- Red Sea Coral Pro Salt
My wife and I really like LPS and we got some frags just 12 hour after the 'initial startup'.

So far so good all water parameters are good - the prodibio stuff works!

ps: this 'thing' on substrate is the infamous brown algae - you know cycle phase is a PITA

Will be starting the build of my stand soon for the upgrade to the 90 gallon..........Soon all the los will have more room to grow. Everything is doing alright except my torch for some reason one head is receding and another looks like it is bleaching or something is eating the algea off it. Any thoughts would be much appreciated. I have done a fw dip and had about 7 flatworms come off not sure if this was the issue or not any thoughts.
Not to much going on I am working on the stand for the 90 and stuff I will take some pictures tomorrow and put them up on here for you guys. So far everything is doing well. I am up to two frogspawns one two head and one five. I have a hammer which is doing well coloring up. the torch is doing good.....had a spell where it lost a bit of algea but came back. I havesome gsp and some duncans which started as two heads and now are up to six. I have a monti cap which is ok not doing bad but not doing great either. and a soft coral frag. a feather duster and that is about it.
