Just got box of frags from Domenic. 10 out of 10. Superb packaging(best I have seen so far), healthy, colorful frags(no magnifying glass neede to see them), great communication. Highly recommended. Thank you
 
Does anyone use reef nutrition Oyster Feast? Any feedback? Do you think it is beneficial for SPS? I honestly am still not clear if SPS (specifically Acros) Feed on any of these coral foods.
I use this and have enhanced PE 24/7. I feed every couple of days :)
Cheers,

Any time my man. Hope they do well for you.
 
Looks interesting. Where do you get it?

Look up the company when you get the chance. It's an aquaculture facility here in Florida, they make it there, and ship directly. They have tons of different live products that they culture.
RUsalty is company name

The Pinks and Blues are coming back.

I had an event in my display about a year and half ago. I'll be honest I forget what happened but I had burnt tips and coloring down across the board. This WD colony prior to this had impressive pinks, blues, yellows, Greens all over. Post event and up until about a month ago it was just Greenish / Yellow throughout. It has been like that for a long time. But now I see the desired colors coming back. I'm pretty excited. It is a pretty good sized colony nowadays.

I'm still loving this Wild Granulosa. It's growing well. Some of it is growing under the overhang I need to cut it soon. It really is turning into one of my favorite pieces. I think deepwater acros are way underrated.

Couple shots I got tonight. Also I recently setup a new Grow out system. I'll try to getting around to documenting it here soon.

This colony is looking great even though I non-stop cut it. Everyone always wants a piece.

Another TSA piece that I cut way too often.

This is really growing out now. I'm finding the shape of the branching is morphing. It looks different now. It used to be more stubby. I'm not exactly sure what I mean, but it has change.

My OG Aquascene Ice Fire Echinata is now exploding with growth. Just cut my first frag off it too. Let me know if you're looking. This is exciting as I said earlier on this has been a multiple attempt effort.

This has been another effort over many years, to grow out a genuine ORA Pearlberry. Finding the real deal is harder than it seems. Now, I know that ORA has begun selling it again. I'm not so convinced it's the same as the original. Anyone got any info on that?

For now I am growing this one out. I bought this from a hobbyist here on r2r. Let me know what you think. I'm thinking this is looking promising.

@Reef Nutrition
I have now been using oyster feast just over 2 months. Of course with any thing like that it’s hard to tell what is doing what. Let me just say my Acros health, coloration and growth seem to be at an all time high. My dosing has had to been dialed up twice.

The only thing that has changed in that time is addition of tropic Marin trace elements to my 2 part dosing and oyster feast. Might be a little of both.
