Oh hell yeah that’s awesome man! I’m so jealous. I’m cycling my new aqua scape I made. waiting till that’s done before I add anymore coral. I did pick these little buggers up at alaska coral last week though. The Duncan is already getting two more heads.
My duncan is a straight stock so far.

So im in a pickle for getting corals where I live. I need to order online. Out of curiosity because I don't find it to be a good idea. Has anyone ordered zoas of of Etsy , I see advertised corals but not sure that would be a good place to order corals. Thoughts or feed back if anyone has.

The only bummer of my day was one of my clownfish decided to host my anenome, I was going to take it back lol can't now.
Could be worse my maroon hosts the sand bed just digs holes all day. He is worse than my goby.

I apologize for blue light new pics to come. But aquasd came through.

Looking good, glad they made it up to you! Nice to know AquaSD can hook it up in AK!!

I've had pretty good luck with Duncans from ACF also, got these guys last year with 4 heads!

One 40 g breeder for me and one for my brother, we will start a build thread soon. Not enough stuff in Alaska so rocks etc ordered online and fully dry. Will be a long cycle. Maybe by next winter it will get live stock.

You have beautiful specimens, so I'm waiting a little longer on the 10 gal to mature before ordering through you and got one order in already so watching how well it does. So far so good.

First zoa rock easy 12 new polyps probably more I just can't see, brand new Duncan already has a new bump and discoloration that looks like the bump did 3 days ago. Gsp is booming so expecting great growth on the backwall, only thing not happy is the kenya tree, think it's the hermit ceab not leaving it alone, what can ya do.

Appreciate it!! Mine is also a 10 gallon lagoon and frankly, I spend far more time taking care of it than I’d like. Try my best to maintain 0 algae, 0 nuisance pests, etc. Even under white lights my corals are blindingly colorful *knock on wood

Mine is still really new a month and a half. But so far any sign of algae I see is gone within hours clean up crew seems to always work overtime.

It’s a full time job that’s for sure. I work up in delta so am gone for two weeks at a time.

Since I’ve put my apex on it’s been nice though. I can still monitor it and have my son or wife add something if needed. Money well spent!

Best place I found for rocks sadly is Amazon with shipping being free if you have prime. I got 50 pounds for a little over $100
