Maroon Lagoon V2.0

What's in it?

A dollop of fish eggs, a dash of mysis shrimp, a pinch of shredded dried seaweed, a dusting of fish meal, a few spritzes of Selcon, and of course the most important ingredient, LOVE.

Still running LEDs with two T5 bulbs as supplementation. Can't complain with the colors and growth I'm achieving at the moment.

 

[biecacka]

No you cannot! Things look great buddy!

Took some PAR measurements in the tank today. As expected, high readings directly under the LEDs, lower towards the front of the tank and as it gets deeper.

 

[Ucantwin]

Your colonies look impressive!

Performed a water change tonight to bring my Alk, Ca, and Mg up after my recent calcium reactor issue when the CO2 ran dry for a week while I was out of town. Took some pictures of some nice looking corals with the iPhone while the water level was lower.

Which iPhone?

Which iPhone?

The iPhone 6s

 

[Ucantwin]

Same phone I have but your pictures look much clearer.

Thanks, when the iPhone makes the pictures look too blue, I'll use an orange gel filter to help balance it. The filter brings out the closest to true colors as I can get with the iPhone

Needed to take a study break and the actinics were one so I grabbed some shots with the iPhone [emoji851]

My frag farm of goodies. Pink Floyd, Vivid Confetti, GE's the Upside Down, and RCA Baton Rouge.

My UC Bali Shortcake

My sunset Mille

The Cornbred rising Phoenix is starting to look good too

Where do you get your fish eggs?

Where do you get your fish eggs?

An Asian grocery market in town. It's bright orange sushi roe, just have to soak and rinse it a couple days to get the orange dye out.

I love that Bali shortcake. That’s a coral I’ve never kept... after seeing your colony, I’m gonna have to find one.
Looking good!

Sorry if I'm wrong but I thought I read somewhere that you tried the product Vibrant. How did it work for you? Any negatives?
