What a long strange trip it's been....

Thanks Zest. I am for sure enjoying the GP right now. The RP is taking it's time acclimating, took 2 weeks to show any PE.

Yes Billme, do not think it has not crossed my mind. Once I finish my rock it will less like a jumble.

Duly noted. md.

Aww thanks it seems like forever. Takes so much restraint to watch coral grow for me. It's so hot out this time of year so you stay indoors during most of the day and watch coral grow ugggggg.

Hi Vinny, my master plan. And you can always fit in more zoanthids.

If only Mike.

I got to get the scape done, placement placement placement.

Thanks all for the kind words.

I'm sure you'll be satisfied after that.

 

Oh good, sigh of relief. So many corals, so few tanks, and I am not a millionaire, damn it.

 

Well it's been bugging me so I just went ahead and got the Ant Insignis and the Miami Orchid both ORA. I have been thinking coveting the ORA Joe the Coral for along time, but the Borealis is very much like the Joe. I have an ugly frag that I have been growing out into something special and it's blue too so I am passing on the Joe. The Ant used to be piece you did not see very often, LA has had it the past couple months. The name is related to the corals place of origin.Ant Atoll. It grows out with pink tips a lot like a SSC.

I have always wanted the Miami Orchid, so since space is limited, they remind me of Naustas.

I am trying to go less green and reds more blues and purple. I do have a plan man.

 

ATI, ATI, ATI!!!

Do it! You won't regret it.

 

very nice, It says because of the t5's it turned pink, wonder if it will stay that way under leds.
Very nice coral.

 

I know Kevin. I am still having too much fun with the LED's though. In person the corals look stunning. I have come sooooooo close to putting the fixture up. Finish the scape and then finish the mount for the ATI, I want both. I want to keep my Hydra for the shimmer and the pop.

Thanks, yeah it's different looking for sure.

When I have had MH and T5 I did not get the same blues to the tips of my corals as I do with the Hydra.

 

I feel like your thread is my home page.

 

Cheryl, i just noticed your lights are mounted horizontally why is this?

 

Because it's a crappy design you need to modify the mount to mount them the other way. I have not hang them because I have cats.
