Growth Update

Sunday, August 19th, 2007

Ever since i got my calcium on track again, some of the coral growth has been amazing. I took some comparison shots today. My mystery acro is starting to look particularly neat… it continues to send up branches, but they are turning purple at the tips! Theres about a month of growth between these two shots.

Found a nice deal on a bright green acropora at my LFS earlier this week. Seems pretty happy in the tank so far… extending polyps like crazy. Anyone know any good sources of acropora identification?

Day 343: New Frags

Saturday, April 28th, 2007

Mr. Pilkington and I took a trip to the LFS today to outfit his tank with some fish. Neither of us escaped without some new corals, and at $5 a frag who can blame us! I escaped with a new Zoo rock, an Echinopora and a nice M. digitata.
