    Hiya,

    Loved my chalices. Unfortunately, they didn't like it when my nitrates got out of sorts.

    How bad out of sorts? My nitrates were zero for the longest but the last 2-3 months they have hovered between 2.5-5.0. Growth hasn't seemed to suffer and color is actually a little better in most corals. Zoa growth is still pretty slow in my tank. I don't know if it's a flow issue or what.

    I know the same coral will look different in different tanks (have one that looks different in different parts of the same tank) but my acros aren't the color they are supposed to be. This is Corey's acro, a little more color thanb two weeks ago but different.

    This is supposed to be a purple nana. Still brown from the transfer but the growing tips are turning neon green!?

    Is the purple nana from Greg? I think I got a piece of it too. But mine is super purple & blue.
