Ya man my clown slams my BTA like it owes her money. Just relentless.

They def loved it to death…. Glad it’s still around thou lol… see how it pans out.

My clown completely ignores my BTAs but it loves the old school giant rhodactis mushroom colony. They could care less what she does as they are each 5-6 times its size (and she isn’t a small clown lol)

Thank you! It’s getting there for sure! Hopefully by the end of the year it’s filled in really nice which I believe it will be! It’s such a large tank it still looks empty ish in the video! In person there’s stuff every where, frags I should say lol.. as for the music.. haha! I listen to everything but country that irritates me

Made back in one piece! After a 3 day hangover I’m home and good! Haha… tank did well! No casualties just some cyano popping up all over my rocks ugh….

Hey trolee, I love the tank! I was wondering if you grew those colonies over the year or bought them larger. If you did grow them, tell me your secrets! Sorry if this is already posted here, I didn’t want to sift through 40 pages lol.

All grown from frags! I carbon dose and feed my corals gut loaded bacteria.. it’s similar to what crt makes “concoction” it’s called now lol..

Nice I’ve tired the concoction before. It never really stuck. I had problems with infections. Can you drop your recipe? Do you have progression photos? I would love to to compare to mine! I doubt I’ll win tho LOL

I thought you were using the Sunnyx method with bacto and diy snow!

System is looking good, Troy! Those halides are treating them well!

 

[Troylee]

I do! That’s exactly what I use… but I add a bunch of aminos and reef roids into the diy coral snow. I feed it twice a week.. sunny just uses diy coral snow, zeobak and a splash of mb7… sunny is the one who turned it on to me before crt was doing his thang. I haven’t tried crt’s blend as I’m happy with my own honestly. I mix up calcium carbonate and add all this good stuff to it and let it sit for 10 min and dose! I add each product according to the package directions.

See post above… as for photos umm yeah sure he’s a couple. These are 6 months apart. I have plenty more I’d have to dig through my albums lol.

Golden rod took off as did my slimer but I don’t have an updated picture.

If I’m not mistaken Sunny’s method consists of dosing all those products at once instead of letting it sit in a box like crt right?

That’s insane growth!

I don’t Know If it’s the specific pieces but I’ve been told I have fast growth but it’s no where close to that. You run halides too? That probably has something to do with it.

Correct! I do it the same way Sunny does.. it takes me 2 min to mix it up I let it sit for 10 min and then my skimmer and return off and feed the tank.. I let it run 60-90 minutes with my mp-40’s on and then turn everything back on and watch the magic happen.

I do run halides! I love them! You’ll never see a pc rainbow grown under leds like this! LEDs don’t bring out the gold as much. My halides grow them and color them and the blues make them pop!

Here’s the feeding response from my short cake with my bacteria mix… I’d say it’s good!
