got my corals from mr coral today. lights just came on and the nuclear waste favia looks great. the blue eyed girl palys are opening, as are the blowpop zoas. i need to get some sleep before work tonight but hopefully will be able to get some pics before i go in.

dipped them all in coral rx for 5-10 minutes before putting them on my frag rack.

Here are some cell pics. I'll play around with my point and shoot tomorrow and see if I can take some better ones

this colony of radioactive dragoneyes was wiped out a few months ago due to a purigen recharging disaster. i had 2-3 polyps left. making a comeback!

Thanks. I need to try using my pns camera instead if my phone. I'd like a dslr but would rather get leds and a controller first lol.

I'm happy with it so far being my first sw tank

just picked up a purple and green chalice, two head purple tipped green frogspawn, dragonsoul favia, and green favia from ascarbro14. also came home from helping a friend with a 180 do some maintenance with some radioactive dragon eyes, mantis, miami hurricane, whammin watermelon, and fire and ice zoas. i thought i fragged some miami vice also but i may have missed those ones. finishing dripping the corals from ascarbo14 now, gotta put them in the tank, shower and get ready for work, and maybe snap a few pics. ill try to post when i can. running just my actinic today since they are going from leds to power compacts...

I really liked seeing the Duncan recovery. I've seen so many Duncan pics but none of a fill recovery and then what looks like natural growth on the rocks. Very nice.

The one I brought back to being healthy is now in a friends 180 gallon lps and softie tank. It opened within a day and is doing amazing. My Duncan isn't quite getting the size and extension he used too. I think it may be because I moved my powerheads around...

[totion]

tried out the different white balance settings...

so my duncan is all closed up, which is weird for it, so i tested my parameters.

ph 8.4
amm 0
trite 0
trate 0
phos 0
kh 10
calc 400

no idea why he is throwing a hissy fit.

i placed my frogspawn and he is open and looking good, my dragonsoul is getting a slight gold rim, my green favia is doing amazing, and everything else is fine. i have a little bit of scrubbing to do tomorrow, and im getting 15 polyps of magicians around 3. gonna dip them in coral rx after acclimation, along with all the new zoas i brought back from a friends. been working with my point n shoot and i think im getting better at taking pictures with it. ill post some tomorrow...
