Some of my sps

Pc rainbow under high light. It’s crazy how different it looks from the other frag lower in the tank. This one is almost completely green with yellow up top and just a little pink tip.

Have had this RR Orange Passion for a few months. It was super browned out when I got it. Finally coming around. I started dosing 0.5ml of strontium per day and I think that, along with time, has made a huge difference in color.

Edit: I was playing with light tonight. Added 20% red and it made a lot have the purple shade. Goes to show how much your lighting can effect how your corals look to you.

Either purple Cadillac or Red Bull not sure which

Went on vacation for 3 days to Lake Tahoe. Kept getting high ph warnings. It’s insane how much out respiration effects ph. Also saw quite the drop in ALk because of it from 8.1 to 7.8. I will definitely need to adjust dosing once my son starts kindergarten in a few weeks and my wife goes to full time.

Random RR The Vinh

You got to start having the family hold their breath every once in a while to keep the ph up, lol.

Hahaha. I switched job and took a few weeks off so there was 3 people home most days. I had to lower my alk dosage because of that. Now that me and my wife are back to work my alk is starting to go back down, it was down to 7.7 today. I never would have guessed 3 people could have such a large impact.
It’s pretty cool to be able to watch the cause and effect with apex and daily alk monitoring.

I have a frag of this and one other coming from Matt V next week. With these and the grow out piece, I need to get my frag tank up ASAP. Way to many frags in a little 70 gallon. Will slowly phase out the no name/lesser pieces. But first I need to get my last two fish through qt as the frag tank will take its place.
Really love this wwc grafted cap. It’s crazy bright. Have another bigger piece of it out of view. I’m interested to see what the nub above it grows into. It’s crazy bright.

Nice pieces! Doing a great job!! I might copy your light combo.

Thank you! Honestly if I could do it again I would likely go ATI with reefbrites. Would be so much cheaper. Now that everything is setup and running good I don’t get to use any of the extra features the radions have. I’ll be plumbing in a small frag tank and will do ati reefbrite combo on that.

 

[danreefman]

Lol. That's what I'm running now.

 

[Norcalreef]

Lol. That's what I'm running now.

Haha isn’t that the way it goes, always want what we don’t have.

Took out the dslr tonight and messed around with lighting and camera settings. Seems like I have a pretty good lighting profile now that will work with my camera.

Really loving this fox flame. So many pastel colors

Pc rainbow. Crazy how different it can look. The one in high light has gone almost completely yellow with only a tiny bit of pink on the tips.

And lower in the tank

Bubblegum Milli one of my favorites

A really cool unknown. Has pink rainbow coralites with a bright green ring around the encrustment.

These pics are straight off my camera, only resized. Color has been getting so good lately.

Love this huge purple Stylo. For sure the biggest piece I have. My favorite fish, the fathead sunburst anthias loves to hang out under it.

This was a no name piece I got in a pack from @uniquecorals Very cool piece mostly pink with some orange then the base is green and blue.

Vivids sublime. Love how the polyps go from red up top to orange at the base. Really stunning piece in person.

Vivids badfish. This one has crazy potential but did not ship well. Browned out pretty bad but is starting to come back. I can’t get a decent pic to save my life. But on the bottom right you can see the coralite starting to get a rainbow coloration and polyps starting to return to the red green

 

[4FordFamily]

Beautiful SPS coral! Thanks for sharing!

Some dslr blue fun pics. Colors are just stupid!
This new unnamed piece is off the charts. Move over home wrecker.

Confetti has got some of the brightest colors under any lighting

Really really like this Grim Reaper. It’s not as hyped up so it was cheaper. Colors are still amazing.

Amazing

What's the back right one in the second pic?

 

[Snotdoc]

Great thread and nice corals. Convinced me to pull tigger on my Vivid order!
