Good pe and they are juuuust starting to sprout. Get that balling ready!
I think if I were a wrestler..... or a porn star... my stage name would be ‘blue polyp granny’ just to throw people off a bit!
Matt, I dare you to get a t-shirt made with that stage name, I bet you would get plenty of awkward looks, lol I have finally noticed that as the bases are laying down, that I am now seeing small consumption shift, not enough to go online with balling yet. I am thinking of using the Component Strong bottles and doing weekly trace, but using simple 2 part for maintaining alk and ca. That is the plan anyway

Yeah, that one looks familiar doesn't it, lol... That bounce is growing quickly, it is easily size of a quarter now. Bounces are also getting bigger, just love that coral! Come by soon, tank is almost full...

Hey Dom, thanks for the compliment mate! Mushrooms are the craze hear in Orlando, we are seeing some killer looking shrooms coming in, and my collection grows, lol I have a nice little collection going, with plans on adding several more bounce corals. I am also eyeing an Aussie Flame Thrower, and a few Eclectus varieties as well. They are fetching a large price here, like $600 to a $1000 US per baby. And I thought the high dollar acros were ridiculous, these shrooms are outrageous, but beautiful at the same time. Cheers

I only have 3 fancy shrooms at this point: WWC OG Bounce, Mr. Blue Bounce, and Red Devil, but also have some insane non bounce Rhodactis. My LFS has some killer shrooms right now, and has been cutting me some nice deals. All these shrooms are holding value around here, so unlike some fancy acros that fetch a huge price, and a year later they are like 1/4 cost, these shrooms seem to hold value. It seems the fancier they are, the slower they are to pop babies, likely why they hold value If Andrew heard our excitement over a soft coral, he would probably has us banned here, LOL BTW, I still am buying acros, they are filling my top and middle reef, and just had a buddy cut me strawberry wine, shortcake, fox flame, asd rainbow milli, hopefully will get over there this Saturday coming up. So, it's not all softies around here guys, lol

Man I see your tank is almost full already. Good thing they're about to release a few more tank here soon or already did. Your going to need an upgrade. Lol tank should be on day 3 of my aquaforest bio s cycle. Can't wait to get some stuff to fill it. Lol let see how long that takes since it's only a 12g tank. My buddy has another wwc bounce if your interested or know someone looking. Its a lil bit more than the one you got from me. I'll have to drive up there after we get back from Mexico to check it out.

An announcement will be made this week by Waterbox, I happen to know all the new designs, and have already chosen the model. The frag series with sump and AIO are going to be insane, matching the larger models cabinetry. I am going to take over the play room, it will be my man cave, assuming the wife allows, LOL Meanwhile, I am just humming along with this project, and am really looking forward to seeing mature colonies, so the upgrade if and when will be a slow build. Chat with you soon Matt!

Oh wow,
I have not updated this journal in quite some time, and there have been some changes made in the process.
Current situation:
Aquatic Life Hybrid running 3 KZ super blues and 1 ATI Actinic Plus. They come on at 9am and off at 8PM.
Kessil A360WE, 100% intensity, and 30% color. Comes on at 11am and off at 5pm.
All sand and softies moved out to make way for this tank transitioning into SPS dominated. I have a separate tank for all my softy lovies
3 new pieces being added on this Sunday.
Walt Disney
Homewrecker
RR Pink Cadillac

I will try and follow up later today or sometime tomorrow with a FTS.
Cheers
