The pool is always more life, now in the tank there are nearly 20 cuttings of SPS, most of which are very small while for the wild 4 this I was forced to install them more generous dimensions.
addition to the SPS in the tank are present for one of four LPS, Favia one that has grown spontaneously from the live rock. The LPS will be definitely increased in the months ahead will be especially beneficial given the period almost certainly entered a Catalaphyllia and most likely a Tubastrea Coccinea.
Many of you will wonder if I have to insert a Tubastrea masochistic instincts, animal, if not fed properly (and carefully) quickly decays and dies. Gather the LPS challenge with this? I really think so ...
The tank is running very well, the policy of the very few fish, along with a minimalist management is bearing fruit. Nutrients are all very low, especially phosphates remain constant at 0.00 mg / l (Martini and photometer test Merckx), while nitrates are contained within the 0.2 mg / l (Test Merckx).
The bathtub when one sees that it is adding daily given by 8 cc of H & S Marine de Lux Extra, as well as the little food given to very few and very small fish ...
The rate of growth at the moment I feel very good, in a little over a month the cuttings of wild A. Gomez has grown by about 1 cm per branch, while significantly faster species such as M. Digitata have also reached 2 cm per month.
But getting back to the photos ... Foreword, the photos were taken on the fly, without a tripod and remote shutter release. So the results are what they are ...
