Acros look nice! What are the frags? Shipping?
Those acros look great!
Thanks! I’ll organize the frags and take a better pic with some names. Yes I ship, unless the frag is too big which I would prefer pickup.

Thanks Bali, I have been spending a lot of time in there lately, I think I finally have it dialed in. And yes there have been some laundry duties as well, but I go in to grab the laundry and don’t come out haha.
Will do!Msg me when you ready to ship!
Those frag racks look awesome!A few more updates on the system, I switched over from Neptune sky’s (after one died) to four G6 Pros and two 5’ Helix Mesa Blue bars. I really like the combo. Luca over at Quanta lights and K Cleven who makes the mounts and and other 3D printed stuff are both great guys. I also picked up some new MP40 wet side covers from K Cleven.
I updated my frag racks from egg crate to Luna racks, which are so much better.
I had a few oversized frags that just graduated to 2” tiles

I never thought I would get excited about frag racks, and I have used egg crate for years. But ever since I termite tented last year, where I had to move every thing out for a few days, my egg crate racks are plagued with algae. I don’t have algae anywhere else, but I put egg crate in my tank and it just gets covered. I tried soaking it in citric acid for days and sticking it my sump for weeks, nothing seems to help. The acrylic frag racks don’t have that issue for meThose frag racks look awesome!
Hi, thanks. I follow the moonshiners method and try to keep my trace elements in check, which I have noticed helps a lot with coloration.Growth on corals looks amazing. Is there something you attribute it too.
Are you dosing kalk via stirrer? Very impressive growth!Hi, thanks. I follow the moonshiners method and try to keep my trace elements in check, which I have noticed helps a lot with coloration.
But for growth, the the thing that has helped my system is PH. I mix a 25 gallon brute with saturated Kalk. I have my apex set up to continuously dose Kalk when my PH drops below 8.25, then turn off once that value is met. I have my ATO turn on when my sump gets too low in case there is an issue, but otherwise my ATO doesn’t even turn on anymore. After doing this, which I copied from Chris Meckey at ACI aquaculture, I saw an explosion of growth.
Here is an example with my WWC Wow acro

Thanks, no I tried a stirrer but it could not keep up.Are you dosing kalk via stirrer? Very impressive growth!
How do you like the Skys compared to Radion?
Also why do you run a cholormine monster were you showing chlorine in the output water?
Yeah I follow the Moonshine method as well, But the key should be the PH, my PH is low 7.8 with lights out and 8.1 when lights are on since its a close room with no ventilation only AC unit I cant et it to be higherHi, thanks.

Was there something that you saw that you know something is coming through though?
With the way mine doses, it only really doses Kalk from like 2 am when the PH finally dips below 8.2 (lights turn off at 10 pm and my ph is in the 8.5 range at that time) and then doses Kalk until about 1030 am, since the lights turn on at 10 and photosynthesis brings the PH up above 8.2 at that time. My PH never goes below 8.2 when I am dosing the Kalk.Yeah I follow the Moonshine method as well, But the key should be the PH, my PH is low 7.8 with lights out and 8.1 when lights are on since its a close room with no ventilation only AC unit I cant et it to be higher
I dose Klak as well but not 24 hrs only 12.
How hi is your ALk ?
