Does anyone know what lighting system CornBred uses on acros?

[Thomthom329]

Ryshark is correct. This is what he told me a week ago: I run reef brite leds and hydras 52 with supp t5

Just curious if anyone could fill me in on this. Their colors omare incredible and when i saw their Golden Pink Cadillac mother colony I was blown away. Does anyone know what they run for lighting? And is that it or do they dose special supplements for their acros?

I had purchased multiple pieces from him and paid the price. The colors were close to what was pictured. I’ve run only Radion Pros, the colors are there. Good experience with him. If I had an issue with the shipment he was right there for a solution.

Popped? Like the bag had a hole?

Yes it was double bagged and both bags had a good 1/4” hole or so. There was just enough water for me to do an acclimation about 1/4 of a cup

They’re usually pretty good about answering email. Did you go through his website or EBAY?

 

[DHill6]

Things happen, my recent JF order had one bag that leaked, bottom of box was soaked, another frag was loose of the plug which was ok with me. This was a first in a JF box but everything was OK.

I sent him through ebay no response yet

 

[DHill6]

I purchased most of his through EB also, message was sent through EB correct? Going through there you have options if needed. Send a second message if you haven’t heard anything.

Also I would like to add that some of his corals just appear to be re named in his tank apparently

I've had an identical experience.
The two times I've bought from him the freebies were really nice.
One, I believe was a Granulosa.
When it grew out it was my wife's favorite and she doesn't even care for sticks.
The other looks just as good or better than the one I bought.
Then there is the "Fiery Pink Lemonade" I purchased from him a few years back.
It happened to be right next to a "conventional" Pink Lemonade and a WWC "Fruit Ninja" Acro, in my squarium.
The conventional PL and the Fruit Ninja appeared identical and both had more intense coloration than the Cornbred version. However about one year later his version developed coloration that was more intense than the other two.
That's the thing with Acro's it can take some time until they blossom in your tank.
And yes most of his frags are quite small but he does specify the size.
Also make sure you look at the right photo as he will post multiples some of which will not be what you are getting.

Its got really good color. My daylights are on right now and it still looks incredible. I can’t find much info on them high light or low light? Slow grower or fast grower? It will be a learning curve.
