The bubbles are from the surge dumping the wave over the reef.

Aquacultured colony

I have been feeding the elegance daily and its doing well. It arrived well without infection and is readily feeding. I am using Freeze dried cyclop-eeze and DT's freeze dried phyto every day to feed all the corals with as well as the fish. My fish friends seem to love the cyclops also.

This is a new thing to me. I never really fed the reef before. I have been reading lots of papers by various experts that agree with feeding almost daily. I have noticed color changes with the two aforementioned food formulas as well as increased growth in my montipora colonies and also the acropora with most noted in the tabletops.

I have quite a few aquacultured colnies in the tank now! Its amazing!

I have frags Elmo of most of these growing out in a 300 gallon grow out area.

Looks fantastic Mike!

By the way, check out your PM's when you get a minute.

Awesome looking tank,Mike. And to think that it was wiped pretty bad not that long ago. it is amaizing to see how nice it looks now.I'm glad that you feeding your tank often,I also agree that it needs to be done often if you want your corals to grow well. So,you like cyclop-ezee? I just got it but had not tried yet.

Good luck with all those beauties!

We did a huge group order from Premium Aquatics from the Michigan Reefers forum and got the Freeze Dried for 7.95 a can. I got 4 to tide me over and a thing of ESV freeze dried plankton. I like it and think it will work well.

Thanks for the compliments too on the corals. They are doing great now!

I've always been a fan of ESV's dried phyto and still use it in conjuction with Dt's and everything else we feed.
