JF Homewrecker progression thread

I run radions. This is my daylight pic running the coral lab AB+ schedule...

Thanks. Definitely doesn't look like that photo. I heard it looked similar, wanted to make comparison. I will search. Thank you

Yea under normal lighting such as 14k the colors are more green and pink than anything.

I really want to get one but I haven't had much luck with keeping Acros

I'm still trying to get the pink out of my HW.

 

[Clintcrabtree]

Saturday will be a month since the HW came home. Doing very nicely in my system. Here's a pic from last night after my weekly water change.

Looking good Clint, just keep that guy in one spot and let it grow! I'm sure it will start taking off here soon once it really settles in.

 

[Clintcrabtree]

thanks @luke33! It has been glued in its permanent spot for almost 2 weeks now...now its just a waiting and watching game

 

[Clintcrabtree]

Just a pic for future reference...1 month in my tank today...

 

[Triple R]

Nice piece

 

[Clintcrabtree]

Thx @Triple R

 

[SM_Reef]

Great progress, I cant wait to own one myself!

 

[Bluedore]

Anyone have a HW frag available or know who has some for selling?

Thanks in advance!

 

[J Rog]

Really nice piece!

Here's a pic from a night or two ago. Definitely starting to get Pinker.

 

[Clintcrabtree]

It's amazing how much more pink the home wrecker had gotten in the last week!

I thought id start a thread to track the growth and coloration of my JF Homewrecker frag I recently got. Here is the first picture 24 hours after adding to my system...keeping it low at the moment and slowly will be moving it up to blast zone (500 par). I am currently running a gen2 XR30w and a gen4 XR15w PRO over my IM Nuvo 40 with 2 mp10qds...

What's your radions setting like? And nitrates ? [emoji16]

 

[Clintcrabtree]

@Flyingbulldog I am using the stock coral lab SPS AB+ schedule with a bit of extended moonlight at end of day. Nitrates for a while were 5-10, but for the past month or so have been running less than 5.

 

[NCreefguy]

Looking good! More of the pinks will definitely come out when you move it up into the 400+ par range. I've got two HWs sitting at 400 par and both have more pink/purple on them than green or blue.

What intensity/brightness? I have my at 75% and I dont see alot of purple lol!! I dont test for potassium and just dose acropower/fuel once in a while.

I was at 85% with an XR30w but added a xr15 so I turned overall intensity down to 65% to match my previous par settings. Top 1/4th ofy tank is getting 500+ par.
