Yay! Awesome looking tank. So worth the moves you went through and rough times you have an amazing tank!
 
Thanks. It's sure getting there. And we've just started seriously dabbling in SPS. No good pics yet, though.
Sps are fun I just started myself what’s this corals name?

It was a frag/piece that Jason and Amy got from Lockhartia a few years back. We got it from them when they broke down their tank.

I though it was, I have a piece as well. Yours looks great along with everything else. Too bad about those blue eyes cardinals, I’ve always liked the look of a school of those. I have read that you have to start with twice as many as you intended to have.
 
Yeah, we tried twice and ended up with one. Then switched to the orange striped cardinals. They all swim together most of the time, so it works.
 
Looking great guys!! Keep it up and show off some SPS when you get good pics!
 
The tank has an algae problem right now so no newer pics, but getting it under control.

Ordering new bulbs and parts for a Chaeto reactor. Adding more cleanup crew. Getting parameters in check.
 
Love the scape! Can’t wait to see all the goodies you have in there!
