So i decided to rescape the center and left side of the tank to incorporate some pillars and coves. I put some acros on the pillars including a ARC fireworks and a FHC Tiger Melon which im super excited to see grow out. Also a CC full tilt favia on a rock on the sand bed and my wife finaly got her pulsing xenia lol!

I FINALY made some upgrades to my lighting. I added a meridian 11 To my meridian 35 for full coverage. I designed this hanging hood for them to sit in and had a local acrylic shop build it. Awesome bonus is that it shields the light from your eyes too.

I also had the acrylic shop build this custom lid for the tank with a cut out for a plank feeder i also added (works great btw).

Just finished flucanozol treatment for bryopsis. Worked good and have everything back up and running 15 days later. I do notice some loss in SPS color, other than that im bryopsis free!
