SRC Member scarab Posted January 17, 2005 Author SRC Member Share Posted January 17, 2005 Reefer guy, I love the way your SPS encrust. Mine don't encrust half as much. Yours is amazing. Any secrets? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SRC Member scarab Posted January 18, 2005 Author SRC Member Share Posted January 18, 2005 Jimng, You are not only achieving good growth but nice colouration as well. I believe you are keeping your SPS under 150W MH. For that fact I think that your growth and colour for the 2 month period is awesome.

SRC Member Jimng Posted January 18, 2005 SRC Member Share Posted January 18, 2005 Yes bro, it's 150W-20k lamp and the sps had to be keep at the top area of the tank, if i were to start another tank, it will definitely be 250W or more +T5.....then can do slope downwards like you and the rest of the bro here....it will really replicate the natural reef scene.....and more space to buy more sps.....

SRC Member LinkinPark Posted January 18, 2005 SRC Member Share Posted January 18, 2005 When I bought this stylo, it was the last piece and was in the tub for 2-3 months. It was totally brown and overwhelmed by algae. I frag it into 3 pieces and the size and shape were like the 1st top pic. Many Many months later (2nd & 3rd pic), colour intensify and new growth, algae gone . The frag in 1st pic was lost in the LR and only rescued recently, and this explains the no-growth. These frags were very slow growing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
