I took a few underwater piccys of a few of my corals today, I thought you may like to take a look.

And if anyone would like to ID this one, it was a 1/2" stub of a wild browned out coral, saved from being overgrown underneath my Hystrix.

Things are starting to move in the right direction now. many of my corals suffered quite badly to start with, due to my choice of lighting, and the use of Oolite as a substrate, and have had to recover from that.

Proper colurs are now returning. the two Abrotanoides went totally brown but as the pictures show, they are almost back to where they should be. Its been a tough journey at times, trying to avoid losses due to lighting but on the whole, ive been quite successful. Some corals that I had all but given up on, have recovered well and there is strong regrowth over old exposed skeleton.

I'm really having to push my Calcium reactor hard now, to keep up with Calc/Alk useage. I inadvertently left the CO2 off overnight the other day, and my DKH went from 10.6 to 8.0 overnight. I'm now slowly bringing it up again.

Thanks for looking.
Tony.
