Mike, I think you have me confused. I've only purchased a couple frags of zoos from CRS.

Otterpop, I'm using an Olympus 720, which allows me to take pictures underwater. Which might explain why some of the pictures are framed weird, since I just snapped away without looking at the viewscreen.

Xia, nice sps collection.:thumbsup:

 

[mpoletti]

Very nice...

Nice Xia, hopefully, we can grow our to full size colony like your stag and cali tort there. I just can't keep up with Alk, it keep droping like crazy.

Mike,

That was me, took some picture last night with all the polyps fully extended, will see how it's doing over time and what will it turn into.

Very Nice......hope to be "there" some day!

Anthony I wonder if those giant clams are sucking out your alk. I've had to tune down my calcium reactor since downgrading. Maybe you need to add a kalk reactor.

 

[little_d]

Xia, I got those clams in there for a while now and they don't seem to suck it down that quick but who knows, it might grow much faster than before.

I got a kalk reactor from the wmc last time, I wonder if I set it up would that increase cal as well as my ph? My cal is at 400-450 now, it just the alk is way too low right now it's at 6-6.7. Everything is doing great though.

xia, thanks for sharing pics of your colored sticks!! very nice collection you got going

anthony, how old is your alk test kit? if its close to a year and a salifert, you might be getting a low reading. how are them frags doing from last time you came by?

 

[little_d]

Tim,

All the sps is doing great, I see nothing wrong with them, growing well and already encrusting into the rock.

I'll try to test it with my seachem test kit and see what happen, the salifert kit is old but haven't expire yet.
