I’ve found that the corals have better PE and better color around 4-6 No3 and .02-.06 Po4 So I try to live in that range. I feed heavy to maintain and also add Acropower 2x a week for aminos.

Fish:
Powder blue tang
Kole tang
Purple tang
Red Sea sailfin tang
Blue hippo tang
Yellow tang
Magnificent foxface
Pink tail trigger
Malanaris Wrasse
6 line wrasse
Mandarin goby

Are you on Instagram or YouTube, would love to see more of this.

@Russo757 amazing collection! I have most of these, but most are still frags. That JD was awesome, so sad that you lost most of it. I have a frag of it, and it's a slow grower for me. Hoping it will take off soon.

Hey quick question, what are those plates that you are growing corals on? Where can I get them. Anything to make them reef safe ?

Lighting over this tank is an 8 bulb T5 fixture with 2 ReefBrite XHO Strips. Bulb Combo is 6 B+ and 2 ACT. I feed heavy and try to maintain nutrients around 5 No3 and .03-.06 Po4. Alk is 8.1 - 8.2, Calc 450, Mag moves but is around 1400ish.

What a beauty! Recommend you to get a Alk monitor. Well worth the money if you have high end corals.
Which do you recommend? I just got a GHL KH Director and 2.1 stand alone doser and I'm highly unimpressed with both the quality of the product and the customer service. If my issues don't get resolved this week its getting returned so I'm open for suggestions.

I can’t keep an angry birds, or homewrecker, alive to save my life. That sleeping beauty is the boobs though. Great collection. I hope you frag and sell one day.

You think RR Angry Birds is tough, try to grow TGC Angry Birds. I have two colonies now and they are rarely colored up. Pickiest coral I own. HW needs LOTS of flow and 350-450 par to be happy.

I’m running my Alkatronic for more than 6 months now. Had some parts issue but they solved pretty quick. It’s been solid after that.
