@StatelineReefer @Reefing102 @BranchingHammer
March submission with continued lack of growth. I’ll get my act together and finally move it at some point in the next few weeks because it’s been a bit too long without any activity. You’ll note how much better the BC Vectorman right alongside has been doing the last 4 months for a sad comparison.

Hello all. Can I sit out March and April? @StatelineReefer @Reefing102 @BranchingHammer

I have no issue with this. I’ve been pretty lenient allowing two consecutive misses before counting people out

Good stuff bro, early, no?

Early ?

 

[HudsonReefer2.0]

Early ?

Date. I usually send mine at end of month.

I would think earlier the better gives them more time to log it.
I try and send mine ruffly at same time each month just so I can compare a little but that's just for me.

Yeah, I don’t feel the need to wait till the last minute just cause I don’t trust myself to remember when it matters. I wait for the last month if I can

 

[Jasonak]

I will wait till last few days on the last month also. I have a feeling we will all have a pretty good idea whos ahead by then anyways though

 

[Reefing102]

Anytime during the month is fine with me

April Entry:
Decided to finally move the Ghost as it was starting to look worse for wear. Placed it in more variable flow, higher light, in a much more optimum location. Took out a previous acro colony and 3/4 of the Montipora Spongodes colony to make way for this and the Calacali acro frag and Hawkins frag. If it doesn’t grow here it’s probably not meant for my tank. Pictures taken 4/12/24.
pH fluctuates between 7.90 and 8.25 lately.
Temp 77.0-78.0
Been lazy with dosing & testing.

Ya know, i think i just realized something...
When I created this sticker and came up with the slogan... I CURSED US ALL!
We were doomed from the start! Sorry, folks... my bad!

Month 6 update. Got the replacement trident and my stuff was messed up. My Ca was over 600, and then I had a push-click battery powered light fall into my sump overnight. I caught it the next morning while doing my shine doses, but it killed my 2 yellow tangs (Bip and Bop) and my contest Bonsai RTNed following the massive water change.

Somehow my Blue Ghost is just livin' its life through all this month's craziness, not too much activity even with the increased PAR.

@Reefing102 @StatelineReefer @BranchingHammer

Month 5 update. I moved all my contest frags to the center, sitting at just over 300 PAR now. The Blue Ghost seems to be doing really well. I can't really explain it well, but the flesh seems thicker/more dense/more full.

I'm 99% sure my neptune trident is dying and due for a refurb, as the numbers it's putting up are way out of whack.
