Same experience with "dragon" type acros. All mine have grown from tiny frags to colonies and barely encrust. My poto golden dragon (a. derawanensis?) and needle in haystack (a. carduus) colonies move around if I touch them. I'm afraid of them toppling over when the colony gets bigger.

Love it! I'm definitely interested in buying/printing one out. I'm going to try to build a stand/enclosure and chute for it. I'm thinking of keeping the feeder in a side cabinet and have the food go down a chute that leads directly to my return pump intake. This is to not have more stuff mounted...

I used two slim 23g for water changes on my old tank. One to mix sw the other to drain. They do bulge a bit when full so I wouldn't store water in them long term. For water changes they worked perfectly fine

Said something that triggered it Years ago I saw a titan trigger at CaliKid. A diver's worst nightmare haha. I wonder if someone bought it

Very interesting. Any plans or guidance you've seen on changing out the sand every x number of years? I remember a big drawback, which moved the trend away from DSBs, was the potential of getting disturbed and releasing a mass of toxins.

Most gonis were pissed off. The XXX goni that has grown very well for me and have made dozens of frags off of still doesn't extend all the way and there's a patch that died off. Big colony of green tip, also grown from a frag, is nearly white. Other gonis had receding flesh. Bubblegum digi...

I'm currently on this quest as well when my nitrates hit 60 and phosphate 0.9 a couple months ago and my corals started suffering. This hit me out of nowhere because historically my tank has been low nutrients without much filtration, only skimmer. So far in the past 2 months I've added a filter...

Just printed these. Nice space savers!

Do they detach and spread around the tank? Or just encrust from the mother colony? Do they spread on sand? Heh i might be interested in some for the macroalgae tank. I don't have a lot of rock in there and could use some pop of blue.

It's a small shop so not a vast selection, but owner is a good guy and trying to revamp after buying SJ Reef. They're only 5 minutes from me so nice to have if I need frozen food or supplies in a pinch.

Pending Got this printer as a trade for corals a couple years ago and it has served me well. Made tons of reef related prints with it. It's an older model, doesn't have fancy features, but it does basic jobs fine once you dial it in. I upgraded my printer so passing this one along. Pickup in...

Discasoma mushrooms: I have defective candy crush mushrooms, only 1 or 30 will develop green lines. They multiply like crazy, detach, and spread around the tank. Injecting them with kalk only weakens them then I need to suck them out the next day. Tequila sunrises at least die after injecting...

I sacrificed and stripped the wires from a random 12v power adapter I found. You know, the one from the box of miscellaneous cables and power bricks that you don't want to throw away because it miiiight be needed in the future.

Found the video. I did this years ago and it actually fixed one of my two dead 360WE.

If you unplug then re-plug, does it flash for a second then turn off? There's a jump-start fix if that's the case I have an A80 you can borrow. Not as strong but will fit the gooseneck. I'm in Dublin
