I decided to toss my hat in the ring for the Feb photo of the month contest. Here's the photo I used (#11). What do you think, am I worthy of a vote? ;Snaphappy

It’s doing great and I need to take some more pictures of it. I lost the Pink initially but it’s starting to come back. First HW I’ve had that actually developed pink! Crazy PE too.
My HW is growing just fine, but is almost hairless. My Disney is growing bonkers fast, but also hairless. The colors are reasonably vibrant green/blue and a tint of orange/pink if I squint real hard. I've had them since January.
Left to right, HW, Ding Dang, WD, SCOP, PC. All those nubs on the WD base are very new and growing strong.
Any idea what gives on the lack of PE?

I’m not sure, I’ve always had good PE. I run my lighting strong, 350-550. I keep my water slightly dirty, 5/0.05. One thing I do that I’m not sure many others do is I don’t run socks. I found it to just be unnecessary and so I always have little particles floating around in my tank. Maybe they like that?My HW is growing just fine, but is almost hairless.

Hmmmm. Similar lighting, a slight bit more nutrient, but I do run socks. I feed fish super heavy so my socks overflow at day 3-4. I also run MP40s on two 80G frags. I run 2 X MP40 and 2 X 25 Wave gyres in a 120. Flow is hard but indirect.
Once I get to small colony size I get PE; but frags... nada. Feels like too much flow for the little guys maybe.

@DivingTheWorld
I mean this in the nicest possible way...
I hate you and hope it burns when you pee.
You have the tank the vast majority (aside from BubbaQ) aspire to and you make it look effortless.
Congrats, and I hope you realize you are inspiration to many.
No, really.
Not talking pretty cause you started this thread...speaking what I see and feel from replies on this thread.

Yes, ATI T5 with Reefbrite XHO Blue. I often think about getting a bigger tank and if I did I would probably go Radions with T5 supplements. But for my small tank it would cost too much $ to experiment and since it ain’t broke...

Looks like there's branch or 2 in the way of that perfect shot. Cut them off and send them to meMessing around with my macro lens. These I consider to be mediocre photos. I need to figure this thing out...
