SAM Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 I thought Jim got a huge one by now lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jolt Posted February 25, 2015 Author Share Posted February 25, 2015 My piece started the same size as yours. It broke in half during shipping to me Then I accidently fragged it a couple of weeks ago (I think ckyuv wants that one) Haha - that was my first ever accidental frag! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nvrEnuf Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 Man, that was one very nice thing about my 29. No accidental frags! Though...my frag rag is empty for once...bit of a quandry..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ckyuv Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 Well I went and snatched up that accidental frag but wow that's a good lookin tank! GreAt colors. I'm going to have to mess with the lights but your color at 54% is a lot more ur than mine. I ended up movin mine to 50% but mines really white. Not sure if I'm crazy or its that far off lol 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if I'm crazy or its that far off lol Thanks for the compliment Patrick! The Kessil numbers I quoted you were max numbers. But it's ramping on my controller so by the time you got to my house it was probably down to something like 30% intensity and 40% color. My schedule is like this right now: On 10:30am intensity 13% color: 20% intensity does a parabolic ramp up to 39%, so it hits max that at 3:30pm, then parabolic ramp back down color is on a 4 hour linear ramp to max of 57%, 2 hours at max, and then 4 hour linear ramp to 20% Off 8:30pm intensity: 13% color: 20% 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jolt Posted March 21, 2015 Author Share Posted March 21, 2015 So what do you guys do on a rainy day? I decided to map out where i am going to put the crazy number of frags I have into my aquascape ... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jolt Posted March 21, 2015 Author Share Posted March 21, 2015 I think we should design an ARC app that can be used for aquascaping, kind of like those home architecture programs but for aquariums! We could start with a requirements specification for the overall app featureset? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SAM Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 that would be pretty cool 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nvrEnuf Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 I am actually pretty surprised ATM or (what's the other guys with the show?) don't already have one considering how many fake corals they have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jolt Posted March 22, 2015 Author Share Posted March 22, 2015 Argh! Cleaning algae off the rocks with a toothbrush today. Broke my JF Sour Twist, and my WWC Red Shortcake. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jolt Posted March 23, 2015 Author Share Posted March 23, 2015 So I super glued them back together. I've done this before with birdsnest and it worked fine. Haven't tried it with acros, but I think I read on ARC forums that others have done it successfully. But the sour twist looks kind of odd now, the top half is pissed off and brown and the bottom half looks fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FarmerTy Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 3 weeks ago: Today: Not too shabby... I'm sure you'll see the same results. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jolt Posted March 26, 2015 Author Share Posted March 26, 2015 That's pretty cool. So far I am not seeing any STN but my two pieces look way more pissed than the one in your photos, but it's only been four days so fingers crossed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FarmerTy Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 I'd figure they'd be a little happier by now. Got a picture of it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jolt Posted March 26, 2015 Author Share Posted March 26, 2015 I'll try tonight, but my ability to take pics is pretty poor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jolt Posted March 29, 2015 Author Share Posted March 29, 2015 Ok, here are pics of the two frags I snapped when cleaning. I need to get a macro lens so I can take these closeup shots better. They are still hanging in there, but pissed colorwise. Not seeing any STN though. WWC Red Shortcake, snapped right at base. Brown above base, but still red on the tip JF Sour Twist snapped about half way up. Brown above, green below. Polyps out. And, just to show that I did not mistreat *all* my frags, here are a few recent shots Red Planet, tri-color valida, pearlberry, wwc yellowtips JF Toxic Aculeus JF Jack o'Lantern, Tyree Pink Watermelon 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jolt Posted March 29, 2015 Author Share Posted March 29, 2015 And here's my ORA Bellina. Took me 6 months to acquire this piece! Been in my tank for two weeks now ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reburn Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 Looking good bud. Love that Bellina and the toxic aculeus 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jolt Posted May 5, 2015 Author Share Posted May 5, 2015 Left to right: original UC SSC, SAM's Raspberry Delight (in front), mistreated JF Sour Twist (behind, it actually fully healed and then I broke it again in the same spot!), Palmer's Blue Mille, little bottlebrush from SAM (foreground, original piece STNd but I saved this little bit), WWC Yellowtips (middle), and Gonzo's Grape Juice up top 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
