  2. thinking about changing my lighting...

    Let me first start off by saying I have no living corals anymore. I had a bit of a temperature issue which has been resolved but I am also wondering since I had some issues keeping sps alive prior to the temp issue if my lights had something to do with it.

The problems persisted and I thought perhaps since some bryopsis has persisted and lived in my refugium that maybe it was a cause (plus since the fuge was extremely dirty since I was having a hard time getting ...
  5. quick update

    A couple little quick hits I wanted to share. As of Sunday December 23rd I officially added the first sps corals to the newly restarted tank. The best coral LFS in the area started ordering from ORA and have hired better employees that have that store really turning around so seeing some SPS I really could not resist so I purchased a purpleish acropora and a BoP Birdsnest which I dipped, acclimated, dimmed the lights down a bit, and within 10 minutes of placing them in the tank the polyps were fully ...
