Very informative video. I learned so much. Just a quick quick question. I have a couple of Goniopora corals also in a 4ft tank but they don't open to the full extend like they used. They would sometimes closed and then reopen again. This happens everyday. And one them have its tips becoming black for a short time and becoming normal again. I think it may be a lighting issue. I have two AI Prime 16HDs and added a AI Hydra 32D with the last 2-3 weeks. The issues I am having existed before I added the Hydra. I don't know what par I have in my tank. I also run my tank at 10 dkH for alkalinity. BTW you have an awesome tank. You have motivated me to keep going in this hobby.

Do they need to be put on bigger bases as they grow or will they continue to get bigger on the same plug or disk? Mine is currently on maybe a 2" disk and is starting to grow pretty good.

Some hobbyists say low to moderate lighting? Thats the first time ive ever heard that one! For flower pots? My understanding has been they need high amounts of light but not necessarily quite as intense as acros. (Shrugs) first time ive seen those on youtube. 👍

It’s so whack. Another tank with a bunch of dollar signs underwater packed too close together with no originality or character. Thor in AZ did the real Bonsai aquascape 20 years ago. Stores are just copying the look of Reef Culture too and their Elos tanks.

Hello. I subscribed to your channel today after watching a couple videos. I am researching a new tank set up. I want a Peninsula type tank to use as a room divider between my living room and dining area. I want to be able to view the tank from the living area and from the dining table. I have thought about this set up ever since we had the house built. I am finally in a position to make this a reality. Now I just need to find the right company to work with. I like those smaller cabinets. They accentuate the tank stand perfectly. Where could I get some?

I've had my first goni for just over a month or so and I can't seem to get it to fully open up like it was when I saw it at the store... I've moved it around the tank a few times but it's still in pretty high light I'll try to put it somewhere darker ... Max it'll open probablt 25-30 % ... Hasn't stopped my clown fish from hosting it though lol

Hello ! beautiful tank ! What is your LED schedule ? :)
@grandcanyonreefs
@grandcanyonreefs Жыл бұрын
Thanks so much!! The ReefBreeder Photon V2+ peaks for about 5 hours at 9-9-85-43-85-85! But it’s also important to note my lights are mounted ~16” off the surface of the water! If your light is mounted at the more standard 10”-14”, I’d recommend around 7-7-70-35-70-70 for general LPS/SPS lighting schedule! That’s what I used to run it before I mounted my lights to the wall to raise them to the 16” point! Hope that helps some!!
