Additional Aquarium Information

What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
Thanks Amanda, it has been an amazing experience that I wasn't expecting.
Perfectly said John!
Never would I have imagined having you all as family.
Blows my mind....
 
My NY Knicks is huge, I just found a branch with 2 heads that is not connected by flesh. I’m waiting to hear back from a buyer. I’m selling for $40 a head with the stipulation that if anything happens to the original colony I can buy a head back for the same price. It came in handy over 2 and 1/2 years ago when bjd took out all my torches, Frogspawn and hammers. Only one hammer that I didn’t frag and get back. It’s like putting corals in a savings account.
Wish I lived closer cuz I'd want to do the same thing with you haha. The bank of Kevin lol
 
@00W Good evening fearless leader! How was your day today?
Chill as I could make it John.
Yesterday was incredibly rough and I spent today doing as little as I could.
Thank you for asking.
Great to see you tonight my friend.

You too buddy. Your fish are looking amazing. Your trigger always make me miss mine from back in the day :)
 
Talking about torchs, Is it normal that my torches are getting more green in the middle?

Luis, I think that is a sign of healthy growth. All of the high dollar, desirable torches boasts green mouths. It sells, so ot can only be a good thing right? Imo man, those are gorgeous. Far beyond anything I've been able to get my torches to look like
