Nice .. How long has it been running ??

 

[ihavtats29]

start up was in october of 2010 most of these frags were very small but growing quick to my supprize. instead of growing out they are getting real thick.i believe it was due ro too much flow so i had reduced flow by rermoving one of the power heads.

i dont think you can have to much flow in an sps tank....

with the third powerhead in the tank i was pushing near 50x turn over rate, from what i have noticed from my sps with higher flow the corals react by growing thicker , too little flow they will grow up and out but very thin and brittle. by removing the power head cutting back my flow to around 40x turn over rate i am hopeing to find a happy medium. the green stylo in the pics used to have very thin branchs now they are real thick with almost no other visual growth.
