With the frags colouring up like that I can't imagine there is anything "sub-par" about those lights at all.

What is that last one? The colour of it in the Jan 20 shot is giving me goose bumps.

ya, I love my lights :biggrin: They have served me well over the past 4 years. The last one is an Acropora. sp.

So Kien, no fancy Zeovit reactor and additives? :) LOL

I am using LightRoom but cannot get such a nice coloration. But I am working :) I need a BioPellets reactor now :)

ya, you're probably right. I guess I'll just have to live with my sucky sub par (no pun intended) lighting for the time being.. (ie, I'm just not cool enough) :cry:



Honestly, I'm not entirely sure what the answer to this question is. I just do the usual. Water changes (every 2 weeks), skimmer, lighting (MH+T5), GFO+Carbon, BioPellets, Alk and Calc on a doser. Top down photos help too :lol:



You're looking at my frag tank. All 150g of it :lol: Seriously though, it's amazing and cool to see how some frags can take off like a rocket, while others pretty much do squat.

:lol: ok then...

Perchance do you recall what vendor or hobbyist you acquired it from, so that I might attempt to inquire about availability of any others? Please and thank you.

Absolutely amazing pics! You are obviously doing a lot right. Great job.

There was a major frag buying frenzy in the fall/early winter from a lot of different vendors.. I believe this one may have come as a frag pack from a vendor out east who happens to like to "frag a lot". A lot of his frags came in virtually colourless or brown but have mostly all coloured up now.

Nope. The only thing that's added is two-part (alk and calc) from a doser. Although, I guess I do add bioPellets as well when they deplete every 6-8 months.
