A couple growth shots:
January, 2013: http://i1100.photobucket.com/albums/...psf4864566.jpg July, 2013 (coral's been moved, so this photo is badly scaled compared to the first, it's MUCH bigger) http://i1100.photobucket.com/albums/...ps2e926dd2.jpg February, 2013 http://i1100.photobucket.com/albums/...ps99f3a453.jpg July, 2013 This coral photographs the worst - this is with a good camera http://i1100.photobucket.com/albums/...ps0d225f8a.jpg With an iPhone camera: http://i1100.photobucket.com/albums/...ps65e4532b.jpg In real life it's probably somewhere in the middle Februay, 2013 http://i1100.photobucket.com/albums/...psb295fe7e.jpg July, 2013 http://i1100.photobucket.com/albums/...pscd20b0a9.jpg February, 2013 http://i1100.photobucket.com/albums/...ps1f0aa497.jpg July, 20123 http://i1100.photobucket.com/albums/...ps9adddff3.jpg |
February, 2013
http://i1100.photobucket.com/albums/...ps0478cfc5.jpg July, 2013 http://i1100.photobucket.com/albums/...pscced8ed4.jpg (bottom left) http://i1100.photobucket.com/albums/...ps115ff290.jpg January, 2013 http://i1100.photobucket.com/albums/...pseb0bf357.jpg July, 2013 - the coral that was to the right of the green polyped guy in the first pic has been moved slightly to the right and re-oriented, so it's now side on instead of head on. The encrusted base that got left behind in it's old spot is spreading out. http://i1100.photobucket.com/albums/...ps35f9256e.jpg February, 2013 http://i1100.photobucket.com/albums/...ps5713d220.jpg July, 2013 http://i1100.photobucket.com/albums/...pscc66a21d.jpg February, 2013 http://i1100.photobucket.com/albums/...ps8d951672.jpg July, 2013 - the blue stag coral in the back has gotten a couple hard prunings recently, so it's almost back to the same size it was in in February! http://i1100.photobucket.com/albums/...ps9175ac23.jpg |

Looking good Adam! It's a shame the tank may be changing hands :cry: Hopefully if all goes according to plan the new owner will find interest and take ownership of it and continue the tank's journal on Canreef :biggrin:
I would love to come see this tank before it does change hands thought.. you may even persuade me to bring my camera.. :wink: |

Can you imagine - has there ever been a tank journal that actually traded hands before? |

The other thing I've been struggling with is a resurgence of very large bubble algae cells. Some of them are a good 4 inches across. I came downstairs this morning to find that two corals had been completely lifted and knocked off the rocks by bubble algaes growing underneath them!
I just posted a pic of this one yesterday! This gives me a chance to check this guy for AEFW. I haven't found a flatworm on any corals other than the one coral that initially had them, but this guy was so encrusted I never pulled him out to check. It's been getting some spots on it that might be flatworm damage, but it's also been getting picked on something fierce by my newish coral beauty angel, so it could be either. http://i1100.photobucket.com/albums/...ps55f03c01.jpg Look at the size of those balls! http://i1100.photobucket.com/albums/...psb0bf0786.jpg |
Them are big balls alright :D

Was playing with my new GoPro camera. It was a gift for underwater photography so I'd stop risking my cell phone with water proof cases. It's cool, but with no controls on the actual camera it's impossible to compensate for the effect LEDs have on the sensor, so these pics, like all my other pics, aren't even close to true to life. They're so much better in person.

I've always wondered what my house looks like to them
