That kalk reactor must be working great for you. I had no way near that amount of coraline in my tank at 3 months. Grats!

Happy three months B’day Brian, the tank took a long time to be completed so he is actually about a 1 year old, but it shows that patience is so important in this hobby.
Congratulations again!

Everything started coming together when I added the kalk reactor...xenia had doubled in size...zoos fully opened. But everything is moving along great all I need now is a few days off to enjoy all the work I put into the tank.

I'm going to try to attend the next meeting, hopefully put up a few bright color pieces.

Brian
