I won the pool! Pay up everyone! I picked today as the day he was going to post a FTS!

Pay no attention to what he said about me convincing him to do it. [emoji16]
All hail FarmerTy, the great convincer!! haha

It's only taken 72 pages but it looks fantastic Bubba and thanks for finally posting it :D

Beautiful tank @bubbaque! I'll send all the new members your way when they are upset they can't grow coraline and want to know the secret! Lol ;-)

Awesome fts, now we can all watch it fully blossom!

Pshhh, I’m a old member and still can’t. Coraline and I don’t get along. Lol

Where did you source the tiny copperband?
I bought it from Live Aquaria. I don't see them have "small" in stock that often and when they did I bought one.

Whoa!!! GSP, lps, zoas, anemones? Not at all what I expected. How about a FTS of the frag tank
A little bit of everything! I make sure to keep the GSP and anemones on their own rock though.

I posted the frag tank FTS about a month ago but I took some pics of them this morning for you to post.

I don't like coraline on anything but the rocks. It makes my sandbed look dirty but it's actually just coraline covered sand. I scrap the back glass every 2 -3 weeks. I notice if I go longer it starts growing too thick and it takes forever to get it off.

Looks great man! Is that Palmers Blue in the first picture in the middle? and what is the blue mini colony behind it to the right?

And what is the yellow coral in the middle of the bottom picture, mini colony sized.

That is the Palmers blue in the first pic and behind it to the right is a frag I got in a trade a while ago, he just called it Tricolor.

The coral in the middle of the bottom tank is ASD Rainbow Milli.

This is that Tricolor

Just dreamy Bubba! I need to remove the sand out of my frag tank and setup some tiles like you did. So clean looking!

That is just lovely. I’d so much rather have just a frag tank and no display at all.
