Never would. I've been wanting one for a while I just wanted to find someone with one in an sps tank.

And what do you use to take pics? This was taken with a canon t3i with the stock 18-55 lens. And I set the camera to auto mode. No skill. The corals do all the work. Hahahha
Huh. I have an 8 bulb ATI fixture with whiter bulbs than you use- I do the same thing (or a lot more) with my Nikon and I still get pure windex. Shooting raw produces some barely usable images, but it sounds like your camera just has a better auto feature.

I've had three Regals over the years and various set ups. I never had great long term success with SPS, but the Regal's never really nipped at them. The one I had the longest,(7years), decided to start eating Zoas and clams right out of the blue at about the three year mark...
I havent had my current Regal a year yet, but so far it's uninterested in LPS, Zoas, clams, or what few SPS I have.

I say you go for it.

Really inspiring. I've made noticeable improvements in my sps system from following your threads and implementing some of your strategies. Someday I hope to pick up some frags when we're down in your neck of the woods!

Yeah I heard about it but haven't gotten a chance to see it yet.

We should have a reefing version of Better call Saul; he knows a guy who knows a guys who can grow acros overnight. He always provides endless frags of RR blue sky. And when your tank crashes, he sends a guy to clean up, do a 100% water change and mount new mini colonies; the spouse will never know

I dose lugols.
But I only dose potassium, iron, and lugols if/when I am lazy on water changes. If I'm doing regular water changes, I don't dose anything.

I have frags available, but I don't ship. I live in Socal, and it's local pickup only.
