Here is some pictures of some of my zoas, I am keeping them under mostly actinic leds at low settings, I noticed that the zoas were a lot bigger because they needed to absorb more like and the florescence has dropped somewhat due to the bigger sizes. These pictures were taken with the whites on to help balance out the colors, there wont be as much "pop". Some of the pictures have glare in them, I had no way to avoid that since my Radion is right above of my coral viewer and the plastic reflects a portion of the light back.

Big thanks to March at Fragbox for hooking me up with the majority of these zoas a few months back

I know people are going to ask about the names so I will post them with the pictures.

I am currently dosing vodka (3ml), vinegar (12ml), Sodium Bicarbonate (80ml), Calcium chloride (50ml), magnesium S/C (8ml), I use Fauna Marin color elements and balling light trace elements with my 2 part.

As for nutrients additives, I have been trying to stay away from Zeovit products, I still use a little here and there, I am finding that the PE is much better with Zeovit.
