POTM!

There's NOTHING wrong with that picture! I love the crazy neon center vs the daytime color of the polyps. That's an outstanding photo Paul.
Let me be the first to wish you a good afternoon John!

Good morning.

None good. It and the plum hammer look like they've just given up but the peach hammer looks fine. My alk is down at about 6.9 and my nitrates/phosphates are up at 57/0.59 but none of that should matter to the hammers. I used to see wall hammers do this after a few years, like they just stop trying.
Unfortunately, euphyllia can be like that sometimes. Your numbers all look great!
 
Im dying to see this build Rock! It's going to be cool to see how you display everything
You and I both my friend! I've had the tank since June... but the honey-do list never ends my friend.

I completely understand brother. It's about like "my frag tank build". Dont put yourself too far down the list though man!
 
Well, fortunately at least you have a chauffer this morning sir. And... unfortunately you must endure the unpleasant aroma of Hazelnut as it wafts through the air.
I went fufu after getting her dropped off - Butterscotch Breve. Super sweet. Basically a hot butterscotch shake with a double shot of espresso.
 
Today's spin on reefing and vinyl:

Garage inc by Metallica. This late 90s release is three records and contains covers of Black Sabbath, The Misfits, Motorhead and others.

Ok one of these is on my list after the tube anemone.
since mine is doing OK, I think I may get another. like a yellow tip. I may even go back and get that green mouth tube nem like Luis' father has. even though it's tiny, I wonder how fast it would grow?
