Before and after pictures. What are your thoughts?

Great transformations! Would love to see your light schedule and height. Also what’s your no3 and po4?

This is in my grow frag tank. Deep Blue 80G. Hydra 52’s are about 14” from the surface of the water. This schedule is based on my own testing. Not sure what caused such good morph colors to develop.

 

[rolyguy7]

Coolio!

Thanks.

 

[rolyguy7]

That is sweet!

Thank you.

Amazing change. Obviously doctored photo or you are the coral whisperer.

Seriously keep posting pics. Really interested in growth rate with such great colors.

Not doctored at all straight from the camera with just white balance setting to cut out the blues.

Both are beauties and developing nicely

 

[DHill6]

Believe me. I was surprised of the change myself. Such a drastic change that when I first noticed it, I couldn’t remember which frag it was. Lol [emoji23][emoji38]. I had to go look at old pictures and track it down by the frags shape until I found it. Lol [emoji23] I was blown away by the transformation. Truly a transformer. Lol [emoji23]

His corals color up well, my purchases always colored up. People complain about his photos being enhanced, CB corals are extremely colorful given a good light and paeans of course.

Hold on. You said you have the regular non HD Hydra 52s right? That graph looks like the graph of the HDs. Confirm.

Yes. They are non HD. The app to control them is the same. My understanding is that the difference between these and the HD’s is that you can overdrive the channels. The non HD can only go up to 100% per channel.

How deep is your tank?

 

[Peace River]

Have you seen a similar change with other corals or is this difference limited to this frag? In addition to the water and light parameters, what else can you tell us about your tank (how long it has been setup, other inhabitants, what, if, and how you feed the corals, etc.). Very nice work!

 

[rolyguy7]

How deep is your tank?

It’s a deep blue 80G. 16” deep.

Primarily these two frags so far. Seems they like light.

Stuff looks real good bro. Kudos. If you please, for my Lux database purpose, how much Lux do you get at your peak time at waterline?

I use an android Lux meter app. Info would really be useful as I try to understand the relationship between Lux and par.

Thanks bud. I don’t know much about lux but I do have an apogee par meter. At peak those frags get about 110-120 par.

Par meter is great. Any SPS in there?

For those of us who don't have a Par meter, Lux can get us pretty close intensity wise, just be sure the corals are getting enough light.

It would be useful to get a Lux app reading though. Thanks either way. Great stuff!

Wow. Just wow brother. Good job on cooking that one.
