Just out of curiosity has anyone else noticed the differences in frags survival varying from tank to tank.
I currently running a 20 with a sol on it. After cycle etc i started adding sps. Now i have gotten Frags from 3 different sources and it is insane how some coals are thriving while others are not.
I got 3 Frags from snappy and while one in a matter of 6 weeks has colored up nicely and has started to growth. Now another has done absolutely nothing and the last is about to bleach out. All are at the same level. Yes i realize that these are different corals and probably have different requirements, but my understanding is that these came from under 400w mh. Unless snappy has changed his lighting since i last looked. I have also brought home Frags from red coral that were flourishing under a 2x250w guiesmann. Same case. Some Frags lived and some did not.
And the last case is fisheytime. He was kind enough to let me go shopping before taking everything to the chuck. Now in this case i only lost one Frag and the others started growing in less than two weeks. All params check out. Now dougs Frags came from under t5ho.
I just find it curious that this would be so different.
