Thanks, now that I have a few coral's in there I am going to let the tank be and see how everything goes maybe add one more fish. I am now going to start being picky about my coral and only get things that I really want. Only problem I see with this is I am fully addicted to adding coral to my tank now so might be a little hard.....:tongue:

Will have some more pictures of the mothers day box I got once I can get some decent shots.

Just a couple of pictures I took today. The picture of the goni is the best picture I have taken so far I think. Utter Chaos came in as 1 polyp and now has 3 babies. Check it out let me know what you think.

Thanks for looking

Couple more pictures. ORA Borealis, Some red and dark blue/black blastos, and some acans. Also included a FTS my tank has just a bunch of frags all over it right now but you gotta start somewhere! I added some rock work to the tank because I was already thinking about running out of space.

Lemme know what you think!

Thanks, been looking for some blasto's. Wanted something other then the green and red. Was hard to find a place for them as my tank has hardy any "low flow" areas. Next update will be next week when I get my next box in.

Nice corals for sure. Do you dose anything or feed the coral. How much fish food are you putting in ? My tank only likes softies.

I have just started to dose. I only do 10ml of 2 part in the mornings. I feed my fish once a day about 1/6th of a cube of brine shrimp every other day and the other days I feed rods food. Twice a week I feed the corals with a mix of rods and oyster feast. Thanks for the comment.

Look at my new toy I picked up today!!!!!

And another top down. This one had a run in with something that killed its tip but it is healing nicely.
