ya its definitely starting to fill in nicely and some corals are starting to get pretty close to each other. Ive started to take an approach where i snip the tip of my frags that havent grown at all for a while and hoping that it will give them another growth spurt. So far i cant tell if its working or not but i do see multiple branches forming from where snipped them.

not much of an update, but i was playing around with the camera today. I saw my pygmy hawkfish out for the first time since i got it last week so im happy that its alive and starting to come out, so i managed to get a crappy picture of him but good or bad at least i got a picture to show.

and here are the rest of the photos i got.

appleberry montipora:

pink lemonade: (November and now)

neon green deepwater Suharsonoi:

bali tri color (coloring back up nicely):

the acro-cal reactor was ok at first, but as time went on it started to do weird things. it would stop taking in CO2 at times or the impeller would just stop spinning, so in the long run its not the most reliable reactor but it definitely will fit the budget of those that want something for there nanos without breaking the bank.

lol i know eh? let everyone know that it'll break after a few months but say it wont break the bank and that there is what seals the deal

now on a note for those that cant pick up internet sarcasm, these units are not worth the money, bubble magus calcium reactors are $50 more and 200x better
