Great growth photos!!! FTS is full tank shot. :D I want to see one too! Very nice colors, although using 20K lighting is kinda cheating, but it does look nice. I'm going to up my Kelvin soon, and cheat too. :p I figure if you can make it look even better, why not?

Which ZEOvit additives and products are you using? Are you using the entire ZEO system with the ZEO rocks in a reactor and everything or just some additives here and there?

I am not really sure the exact type of Acropora that this piece is; however, I have the exact same type that is a huge colony over 8 inches across. The Acro grows in a horizontal almost tabling fashion once mature.

My first thought on this is acropora tumida but it's hard to say for sure.

It is usually 20g. My tank is a 75g with a 50g sump so I think 20g is a good %?

thats cause I bought it from you :P

lol is it really cheating? I was under the impression there was no such thing as cheating with corals, if they thrive and look good then :first:

As for the ZEOvit I guess I am using just about the whole system. I have 13 of the different additives and I've got the reactor and rocks. I dont have their calcium reactor though... not yet :biggrin:

By cheating I mean that blue lighting increases the look of the coral's color. If you remove the coral from the water or put it under 10K lighting it will not be as colorful as it was under the blue lighting. Just as actinic shots are more intense than MH shots, but actinic photos are like double cheating. :lol: Some people are able to achieve such impressive success with SPS that the corals are the same brightness under 10K lighting or out of the water as other people achieve by using blue lights. For those of us who aren't quite that talented, we cheat and use blue lights. :D T5 users are notorious cheaters in this aspect. :p

I wish I had the patience to dose 13 different additives to my tank daily, plus kneading the carbon, and stirring the rocks!! :lol: For now I will just stick to a few additives. I have also noticed marked improvement in coral color and much increased growth just by using a couple additives (PCV, and SP). I need to place an order and get a few more (CS, AALPS, and PX). I'm excited to get going on these new ones. :D

I forgot you bought this piece from me! DUH! LOL:lol:

yea i like them they made a huge difference before zeo and after. I started out with the Vertex-ZEOvit Professional Pakage (1.5 Litre) and just added to that :)
