A quick update on the SPS in the tank. Some of the Acros are slowly getting color in them again as well as the pink and purple Monti caps. The Montis are still growing very well and continue to encrust the rocks they are on. My green Acan is getting very large and adding new eyes as is the pink one. I moved my pink Acan to a location off of the bottom but still low in the tank and it seems very happy. The trumpet coral is adding color back almost to where it was before I dosed the H2O2. The birds nest is growing like a weed but still lacks color. My frogspawn, hammer and torch all are growing need heads but also are rather bland in color. For some reason, my neon green Sinulara has hit a growing spurt and is very large now.
My pump for my media reactor locked up due to Ca+ build up so I wasn't running GFO for a couple of days. Didn't notice that the media wasn't being fluidized. Nothing seems upset, but I'm sure my PO4 came up some.
I've also cut back my MH photoperiod to see if that helps my corals color up some. My LFS suggested they coud be bleaching given the amount of light I am giving my tank--500w MH and two T5 suppliments in a 55g. I've not checked my PAR but I will soon.
Until next time,
Love the addiction!
