    thanks Shin! Lights back on tomorrow. There's still a little on the sand, and a few zoa frags turned into bare plugs. What a PITA lol



    hey Aaron, little town called sebring




    Well its plugged into my apex so I've only seen it turn on once this summer lol! But its really nice, keeping it wouldn't be the worst thing you could do ;)

    It is a dry heat, yeah right !
    My Dino tried to come back for about a month after the complete black out of 4 days.

    I just back off the lighting period and kept blowing the substrate, rocks and corals off and then cleaning the mechanical filter daily.

    What a nightmare it is, congrats on getting it done.

    Curious, where there any additives you were using prior to the development of the dino?

    Hmmm

    Thanks for getting back to me on it.

    I was dosing amino acids a couple months prior to dino developing. I had not introduced or changed anything in several months so I always look for the trigger.

    Major PITA but interesting.

    Grrrr I hate dinos! I had a good battle with them once and it took two lights out periods and also cutting the photo period a bit back as well. Good luck and you will beat them into submission!!! ;)

    Thanks Travis, these guys are the devil! Lol
