We have been feeding this coral food for the last several months and have been impressed. Our SPS has never had better polyp extenstion and they growth has been noticeable. I didn't know if anyone else had any experience with it. Here is a very long dive into what it is and at the bottom...

Intersting, I will have to keep an eye out for one.

Did you go up to Jersey corals or have them shipped? Corals look awesome.

When you pull your sand, watch your alk. Sand has some buffering propoerties to it and when you remove it, it can swing your alk at first. Just test for the first couple of days. I agree with the above with not putting the tiles in. I also think they can trap a lot of gunk, which again is...

I have not seen that ATO before, that looks pretty cool with the leak detector built into it.

During low tides, corals and rock in nature are out of the water for extended periods of time you are good. Yes wear eye protection and gloves, zoanthid toxin can blind you.

Butterflys are a little different from angels. There are certain butterflies that eat coral which is why you see some labeled as fish only. Butterflies can pick and SPS polyps. So they might not kill your corals but you won't relaly have polyp extension during the day. As Mark said above...

I don't remember what strain of dinos we had but as horseplay said, full blackout for like a week and dosing the Dr. Tims regimen. Algae - Cyano - Dinos | DrTim's Aquatics

Not sure if they are tenius, but search for pink lemondae and pickachu acros. They are yellow, but beware a lot of yellow corals can turn green under certain conditions, depends on your lighting and water chemistry.

There are not that many reef safe crabs in the hobby and the ones mentioned above, goriallas and teddy bear crabs start off small and innocent and then start killing any fish and other inverts in your tank as they grow bigger. Back in the day when 99% of liverock in peoples tank was wild, you...

Nice upgrade in size, fish look great.

We have always had angels in our tanks and all of them have been mixed reefs. It all comes down to the invidivual angel. Some will pick, other will destroy corals and some don't even see it as food. Some species are more prone, and that is usually the guideline people go by. So pick your...

Ben used to work at Trop so he has been in the game for awhile.

Depends on the chalice, some have really long sweepers that are just going to sting things no matter what. Again spacing or trying to have nothing downstream of it might help, use rock to cordon it off. There are certain ones and acan echinatas that we just don't get because of their massive...

Sounds really cool, I like the idea.

That is the problem with small frags, even when they double or triple in size they are still kind of small but that is great growth. Color wise, it can take a long time to develop all those colors and you needs to have the right lights and editing software to get there.

@horseplay They still spawn just about every night, so yes it is working out very well and thank you again @ericrodriguez That is a gorgeous mushroom, I think they all kind of develop at their own rate so just keep an eye.

The green took a few years, you will see little specs sooner but the patches take a while to come in. The angels are doing angel things which mean they pick. We have had to move some LPS downstairs, but others they leave alone. We without a doubt have better PE on the SPS in the frag tank...

Yes that one

Whats the green one with the pink tips, third picture in? Very nice
