Thank u Matt n Matt

I loss a little of colors in this lokani
but now I will stop doing any kind of experiment in the reef and let it return to normal

I tried many things to enhance the colors however nothing has worked. I know better do is do nothing.

six months before starting to play with carbon and food, it was almost completely purple

What did you do with carbon and food to cause the coral to brown out? By carbon do you mean GAC or organic carbon dosing?

 

[reefmutt]

I think it's quite beautiful with the light base and blue tips... Although, it is also beautiful solid purple...
Shows you how some corals might look better in ulns while others will look better with some nutrients present..

Well, I believe that some things work well for some people and not so well for others. After reading the Topic of JoyHugo1980 I started dosing honey and milk as a source of organic carbon and food. I wanted the fantastic colors he has, but here was not very successful. I believe it may be due to my aquarium to be extremely poor (clean) course.

My corals in general have lost a bit of color and so I went back to my old system just water changes and eventual AA

I quite agree with what Matt said. some corals look nicer in some systems and others less so, and so I've been looking for corals that best show on my way to take the reef. I gave up wanting to keep some corals that are fantastic in some aquarium but here that does not have good colors.

So where can we get similar ceramic reef rocks? And how do you clean them, just soak them with vinegar & water or clorox & water.

Also, what are the name of the zoas on the left side & the beginning of this video.

Hey Tomae, how is your reef doing?
we may need some new photos.
wow... it's been a month..

 

[sporazoa]

OMG, I am in love with those orange zoas & I once saw those at a LFS in a display tank... where they would not sell any to the public.

Could they be Orange Bam Bams?

or Mandabams?

Or Mandarin Orange?

Beautiful. How do you manage to keep the tank looking so clean? How much time per week do you spend cleaning the tank?

 

[blackgate]

Thank Sahin, the aquarium is cleaner than the visual itself. what I do to keep it that way is to go by removing the frags did not like when they grow and keeping only those that are beautiful the way I keep my tank. The rest I clean the glass every other day and do weekly tests and now 15% of water change once a month, that's all. drop not nothing, do not use any system, all simple .. and the result is simple too, unfortunately hehehe. I can say that currently the aquarium just do not work ... more colors .I would put everything has its price

Thank's for watch
