Patience
Any ideas on the name of the 3rd coral?
Looks like cauliflower coral...more specifically "cookies and cream" cauliflower. Google an image and see if it's similar
 
Nice Amanda.
My wife is the reason I have my tank.
She knows it makes me happy and she just leaves me alone with it.
Very supportive of me.
Same here. My wife tells people it's my "therapy tank".
 
Lights are just ramping up. As always, I inspect the tank and corals.
My rainbow hologram hammer has two babies and my bicolor hammer has 6!!

The lighting is a bit weird as the tank gets a touch of natural sunlight in the early morning as you can see in the pics.
 
You just made my day, I thought I was the geezer on this thread but you have me by a couple years! You must be one sexy geezer!
you bet, lol

I do my maintenance and water changes on Fridays when my wife is at work so I don’t get that look, you know the look “ there are so many other things that needs done around the house that are more important.”
