SRC Member albinosage Posted April 22, 2010 SRC Member Share Posted April 22, 2010 You must at least grow it into a large colony before you can consider selling, to make it worth your while hahaha. I also bought 2 frags, but at least I knew what I was in for lol. Don't worry la, small frags grow faster than colonies, you will recover your money's worth soon!

seanewbie Posted April 22, 2010 Share Posted April 22, 2010 just went to tidy my tank a little Update: Water Clarity My tank water now looks really much clearer now. The amount of particles in the water has been reduced probably by about 70%. The clarity should be down to 2 reasons. 1) the higher water flow through the Chemipure in the MCE 600. The chemipure used to be housed in the mechanical filter module of the Tunze Reefpack 200. The water flow and passing rate is really way too low. with the MCE, I can now have at least 3X the amount of water passing through it now. 2) Filter sock - This thing is really cool. Reefers with Sump really need to use this. I cannot find any reason not to. Coraline Algae Good purplish growth all round the rocks. The base of the tank has numerous purple spots too. I have not even dosed any KH buffers & calcium so far. Maybe I should to speed their growth up. The thing I realised is that there is no hairy algae presence.... why? I used to have tons of that. With the reset of my tank, it is practically the same as a new tank set up. but there is no new tank syndrome... strange. but this is good news Zoas growth A lot of the small frags I have multiplied. now a Lot of the zoas are placed too closed together. I need to reposition them (maybe this weekend) and space them out. A lot of the small frags I have and quite well spread. Looking forward to them blooming even more. Some of them are slowly regaining their colours. It takes about 1 - 2 months for the zoas in my tank to get back its colour. Rics The rics are also doing very well. expanded till quite large. Thinking of getting a few more to fill up the rics space... hmmmm.... Starpolyps Starting to encroach onto other corals now. They really look very nice in full bloom. very healthy currently. Need to find a way to contain their growth. Blastos Peter's mini blasto pulled through the ordeal and is back in pink of health already. So happy..... In short... all the corals are doing rather well and showing no signs of decline. Fishes are also doing great. I can even hand feed the Yellow tang. The yellow wrasse and tailspot is fine. My Helfrichi has put on weight and has been white spotless for 2 weeks liao. Everything is blissful and hope it stays this way Bro, any latest pic of your tank after the clean up?
