How abt lighting, tank temp? Chiller etc? Asking all these to determine if your tank ready for SPS or not. If okie I can spare you 1 small frag to try out. If not then you better save your money.

looking good, nice YT and PBT, the other one still hiding? lol.

how abt equipments? How old is your tank? size etc?

that one come later lol.

Colors from photograph depends on the lighting used. The first photo taken under BLV10kk 3x250W. the 2nd (older) photo taken under BLV20kk 150W. Both are from the same colony. I've passed one colony to Dispar Anthias so you can see the color under XM 20kk.

Please state your water parameter and tank condition.

This is from the same colony. This photo reflects the actual color

Both got sting by my red yuma hence not opening. Running out of space so had to sell them. Bid will close Wed 19th Oct 2359 hrs Reserve price: $40 for no.2 $30 for no.1 Collection in Haig Road, weekday after 7pm. I reserve the rights to close the bid earlier. Make your offer: No. 1 $xx No. 2 $xx

Around 5cm. Photo don't do justice, much more bright green. Some polyps not open as I just shift it. Bid will close Wed 19th Oct 2359 hrs Reserve price: $30 Collection in Haig Road, weekday after 7pm. I reserve the rights to close it earlier.

AA = amino acid.

Different brands chiller works differently. Artica one might sounds too small hp but their cooling power is good especially for the commerical series.

Let us get the intention of the reefer who started this thread right. From what I read, he is asking for opinion on how much algae we can have in our tank. Certainly all reef tanks will have some algae in it, this is natural and cannot be avoided. However the point is how much algae is considered normal? The imporant thing is to keep all the algae under control, if you can see the algae from far away then it is considered out of control already.

If you don't have your own opinion then how are you going to have a discussion? You seems to imply that letting algae grow in your tank up to the extend of what you currently in your tank is fine? Or am I reading it wrongly? pls clarify. Yes he said small patches but how small? Maybe small patches end become a big patch lol.

You can have so-called low (abit undetectable) nutrients in your water but hotspot for nutrients built up on the LR and sandbed. Low nutrients don't refers to getting undetectable PO4 and NO3 from your testkit, there is more than that. Does it feel better if you have people agreeing that some algae in the tank is normal? Cyano does exist but in what proportion? One big patch here and there? or they are present but not in big porportion that can be seen easily? Blueheaven, same goes for the big patches of green algae on your LR. Like I said, if you think that is fine then it's fine for you but IMHO, that's too much algae. Or you want to wait till a tank turn into marine planted tank then says it is excessive algae?

LPS are considered as hard corals.

they can still pass because you fail your maths

oh no count? like that don't try eat snake lor... hands totally straighten, chin over the bar and do steady one lol..

Cat X + CDO lol

what size is your reef?

Deepblue, like that call brown SPS? What I see in need of maintenance is your tunze

I checked carefully don't have. But so small LR also got crabs?

you meant yourself har?

Yes very very nice. Then when the truth came out I see the photoshop photo was replaced with another one (in another forum), wow this simply shows how guilty the other party is. Enough said of that liao.

I heard only, not seen in person. Some reefers managed to keep it under 400W 20kk radium.
