Capn_Hylinur,

Is that an Indo or Aussie elegance? How long have you had it and what kind of lighting is it under? Sorry for all the questions but I am still in the market for an elegance but haven't had much luck. Not with the Indo ones anyway.

Thanks.
 
Geris, your tank has to be one of the best tanks I've seen. The coral selection and color's are awesome. I'm also curious about the lights your using.
 
That is a nice setup Graveyardworm. Keep us posted on the progress of your tank.

Thanks, once i get a little further along with the system build I'll probably start a tank build thread.

I don't think your question is directed for me?? But I did buy an elegance over the weekend--I'll post a pic when its settled in.

I just purchased an elegance coral today--first time---yours looks fantastic--any tips on raising it.

Thanks! That elegance got to our tank, as a small piece and in a year, it has grown incredibly. One thing I know it likes is flow, at first it was in the middle of the tank, but know its at the bottom and either height it has loved, but the flow has been key to its development. Not to hard but sufficient flow for its tentacles to be in constant swaying.

Geris,

What lights are you using in your setup?

Thanks audio! The coloring of corals has been a key factor in the selection for this tank, im glad you noticed.

What I use for lighting is very simple: a current usa satellite power compact setup, with 4 65w bulbs: 2 daylights 10,000k and 2 actinics 7,100k (thus the intense blue spectrum). It comes with moonlights but I never use them.

I didn't realize until last week that most of my favorite corals in my tank are lps.
