Um, update finally! First the bad news - I lost some coral to a salinity incident. As far as I can tell, I can only learn from my own mistakes and there's always one more lesson to learn in this hobby.... ;Facepalm
On the hardware front, not much new besides the Trident (woot!!). I managed to snag a Trident (thank you Rob @ NeptuneAquatics!) which is pretty much my new favorite thing besides my gold torch (I know, me and everyone else... but it's already splitting to two heads!). But I still have everything going in the garage and I love how automated everything is! I think I would be getting over this hobby if I were still lugging 5 gallons buckets of saltwater all over the place (not to rub it in....)
Lots of growth on the corals that made it, though, leathers, a few SPS, and the bubble coral especially. I can hardly believe that little nub my bubble gum digitata started out as at the top right.... (I just ticked off that one big leather on the left and it's still recovering). I also cut back a bunch of the death plays and some other warring corals (and traded at my LFS) and moved the sinularia (middle to far left) because it was killing some montis but now it's bothering the gorgonian... rude....
