[ct_vol]

What is the time lapse between pics?

 

[maidia]

It's about 7-8 months apart.

 

[abfleck]

Wish I could see the photos

 

[nanonubey]

Wow thats growing awesome Mai! Looks about the same size as mine but mine is all one flat piece.

 

[ct_vol]

That is nice... I've always wanted a frag... I only have one efflo left after the move...

 

[SkullV]

Very nice, how much of this growth was under LED? Do you have any photos with the start of your LEDs and then now? You are using Fedy LEDs correct?

 

[maidia]

I don't have picture of it when start Fedy LEDs (my LEDs fixture mix with some Cree LEDs too) but my corals seem grow OK. I don't think they grow faster than T5 or MH. I think it grows the same. To me, I like the color of LEDs.

Cool, a Fedy/Cree mix! How many of each do you use? Sorry if all these answers are there in your LED thread.

 

[maidia]

SkullV,
My fixture have 140 LEDs (all fedy and only 18 Cree Royal Blue). There is no different in color and par when I measure between the Cree and the China Leds (under my eyes and the par meter). I think no better between the MH, T5 and Leds (my opinion) but it's save me some money in the next 3-5 year (let wait and see). But if you have time stop by my place and see, i think you will love the color of the light and the shim (hope I spell corrected).

 

[elmexotics]

wow. great looking pictures. what does the rest of the tank look like?

 

[nanonubey]

Awesome! Lets see a fts Mai.

 

[maidia]

Chad, I may have one FTS tonight. All corals are death except this Efflo....

just kidding....

Wow, that SS has grown a lot since I saw it! I hope my frag from Vivid takes off that nicely. Right now it is just encrusting.

 

[nanonubey]

Any chance you'd want to sell a frag of the strawberry short cake Mai?

 

[ptr13]
