    Thank you :)

    This is frag I really never take many images of because it was so sickly.

    It is a Green Millepora. I wish I had started with a larger frag, because the color and PE are so cool. Colonies must be very pretty.

    It would probably do better higher in the tank with a lot of flow, but having real estate problems right now.


    :wave: Vinney. :)

    Thanks guys. :)


    A Koralia #4, and a #2. Flow issues are an issue with this tank. Too small to find a happy medium. Total of 4 powerheads in a 28 gallon, because the return are in the built in sump.

    I think we actually found the solution for the flow in our tank.....
    we have the 2 pumps in the sump on the wave maker, then we have a nano koralia in the bottom part of the right side of the tank blowing through some rocks (to keep from having dead spot back there) another nano koralia on the other side of the back of the tank, almost half-way up the back wall, and then 1 nano koralia on the top right of the tank. We had some dead spots at first, and now with 3 levels fo water flow, I think we have taken care of that. Plus I think all of our SPS corals like the flow and are startiing to get some interesting growth pattern

    Honestly I am a very bad judge of flow. I never use the wave maker, still sitting in the stand. There is a #4 koralia running along the back wall so no dead spots. I should change out the stock pumps though, they are getting old.

    There are some things that are just too cute in this world, I know I will not loose the link here.
