Hey guys was talking with another member and decided to do a growout of this sweet coral. She is still just a bugger but I'm excited to see how she turns out. Here's mine, and I'm hoping others will chime in too (u kno who u are :taunt: ) ;) I'll try to update this at least once a month :D

Frag is ~5" below water surface.
Lighting is radion gen1 upgraded to gen 3, and 2 24" ati blue+ t5 hanging ~8" above water surface.

Haha. Just picked it up on Saturday. I'll get a pic soon. Still recovering from the dip.

That was the first and last time I use RPS all out. It killed two ice fire frags. 😡. The flame looks ok just not much color yet.

I guess I'm going to have to break my rule about not taking pics of frags. It's bad luck. If this thing dies on me I'm blaming you guys.

Shouldn't blame the RPS for killing the Ice Fires.
In our experience most of the dips have a very bad effect on that particular coral.

Ironically, RPS now has a disclaimer on the bottle not to use it on deepwaters. I have used it on several deepwaters (no ice fires) with no ill effects at all. The original product did not have the disclaimer and I actually thought it was the least harshest of any of the dips Go figure.
