Not to hijack this thread with amazing pics, but for socks and bleach, I've literally been using the washing machine. I have 8 socks, and when I'm down to last pair I wash the other 6. It's a front load so I put bleach in the section for bleach, run a triple rinse tub cycle first to get rid of any previous wash residue, then run a cold short cycle with a triple rinse. Whole cycle is about an hour. High spin has them come out pretty dry already. Leave them for a day and I'm good to go. I'm getting over a week out of the socks, but I don't have too much in there yet. Maybe 15 frags, and a couple small colonies and 7 fish. All are in an inline 40G frag tank but 330 total system gallons. Seems to be working well so far.

Picked up some neat stuff, but haven't had time to get good pictures. I took some handheld ones to feed my itch until I have some more time on my hands.

Thanks to Thang (GTAReef) for some awesome frags, and a frag pack of SPS and some LPS that is now glue on and starting to grow on the rock.

They are Pink. Gorgeous torch either way, don't really mind the name. What colour tips is it supposed to be for Mandarin Swag?

Yea a nice torch either way. From my understanding the mandarin swag is orange like in this photo.

Weird. When you asked I also googled it and another site said purple :/. Mine isn't that colour base even, from my understanding that looks like a Kryptonite Torch. GTA Reef (Thang), showed me his Kryptonite Torches and they looked exactly like that.

Kryptonite is neon green no matter what light it's under with blueish white ends. There are only a select few with true kryptonite torches as it's a slow grower.

Do a google search for Todd's torch, it would be the true kryptonite torch where a fellow in Gta awhile back brought some in
