My 3ft SPS Reef


Recommended Posts

My reef is 65gals with 30gal sump/refugium. Lighting is 2x250 pfo mini pendants with 10k ab bulbs and 2x 95w URI vho actinics. Flow is provided by a Mag 9.5 + 2 ph's. Carbon + phosban is used 24/7 along with a geo reactor to maintain cal and alk.

Anyway, I pride myself on buying poor looking browned-out corals that show a bit of potential such as a faint blue or purple tip, green polyps etc... Sometimes I I get some gems , other times I'm left with a miserable looking chocolate sticks :angry::D. Here's the pics.....

Thanks deepBlue :P To mount the frags on the glass and overflowbox I use a cyanoacrylate based glue (thick gel). Sells under many different names and brands over here.

Here is a pic of an Acropora Saramentosa colony that I snapped a shot of while changing location in my reef

Here is an acro colony that I saved from my LFS. It was in pretty bad shape (RTN on the base) when I bought it for a discounted price :D. It has since turned pink with green polyps. The pic is about 2 months old so the pink color is just starting to show.

And.....I think that's about it for the pics :thanks:

It's really cool thats we can share pics of our reefs from across the globe :)

Rich :)
