Well most of you probably remember the heating incident I had while I was on holladays. while it killed all my caps and digitata it also turned every other SPS I had Brown.

this is a example of my tricolored Milli after the high temps

I finaly got them all back in the tank 2 weeks ago and when I put them in they were just as brown as above. Here are some pics of them after 2 weeks under proper lighting and feeding.

Great recovery story, Nice to see some good come from such a horrible disaster. Just wondering what type of lighting you use and what Kalvin?

from what I have seen in 2 weeks I think they will recover fully and maybe even better due to the new placement.

Great recovery story, Nice to see some good come from such a horrible disaster. Just wondering what type of lighting you use and what Kalvin?

I am running dual 250 watt AB's on HQI ballast and two 95 watt VHO actinics. 16 hours a day on the avtinics and 12 hours a day on the MH.

Looking good Steve :biggrin:

I'm sure glad to see things are bouncing back for ya :exclaim:

I have the same turquoise frag, it's kept it's color so far and show's good polyp extension, so ya know it will do even better under your lights :cool:

When your on the mainland, drop me a line and I can frag a few pieces for ya, I have a few monti's that would do well in your setup :biggrin:

By the way, Brad mentioned that he was getting rid of that large cap in his tank, is that amazing piece ending up at your place :mrgreen:

Nope, didn't go to Steve. It was broken into smaller pieces and sold to a dealer.
