Such a cool view isn't it?[emoji7][emoji7][emoji7]
Sometimes I think to myself, what do acros have that I love them so much? I am not a kid anymore, then why I'm keep chasing colorful sticks?[emoji849][emoji849][emoji849]
Never bored looking at this hairy Pikachu. [emoji15]
Rr Lady in Pink starts taking off:
Rr Biohazard
Hawkin echinata
Bc Frankenberry
Bonsai
Purple Devil
Rr Pink Floyd. Must be something in the water that make this guy went crazy, I think it's more green than yellow. (Yes, that's bad) [emoji848]
Vivid rainbow Delight
Pink lemonade
Sunset Milli
Rr pretty in Pink.
I save the best for last! sc orange passion.
This acro is amazing! One of the must have!
Main reason of feeding is provide some nutrients to the water column, on the other hand I feel that its particles are fine enough that polyps can catch&"eat" (if they do, still a controversy topic).

My goal is 1 a week (5gallons). But I always too busy to do it. So I change one (10 gallons) per couple weeks.
First, it's my first corals food and I stick with it ever since. (Never try anything else)

The wonderful journey you've taken us all on with your tank is so inspiring. You have set a new bar that I will strive to achieve on my next tank. Thank you!!!

Beautiful as always!
What conditions does your Pikachu acro prefer?
I have a good frag that has encrusted but not grown in six months. It has no PE. It is in 450 par under LEDs approximately 14k. Medium indirect flow.
Please let me know your thoughts on this coral.
Thank you,
Kevin

It's in the sweetest spot in my tank right now.
Middle of the tank (500 pars I guess), a lot of flow but not directly. Under led+t5s, but I would say my tank is more like 20k or more. I always like blue tank.
I haven't moved it since I got it ( over a year).
My thought on this coral: it's really a slow grower.[emoji30]

Most of the frag I add keep their colors and develop their color very good.
But not all of them...
No whatsoever.
Thanks sir.
I am kind of out of idea for photos. And sadly I can't figure how to do video even how many I try. [emoji30]

Yes, it is. It was dying, luckily I was able to save the tip.

Yea. I pretty sure it does better in lower light. The rest of the frag I put in my frag tank (200par), recover even better than this one.
But I don't have any place to move it.
I hope it will gradually adopt the conditions and doing better.
