My first attempt at a reef. Overall pleased with the result so far after a year and some change. It’s funny how my taste in corals and visual lighting have changed so much since I started. I would love to change some things, but honestly just going to leave it as is and let it do its thing.

If I had to choose a favorite coral, it’d probably be one of the cheapest corals I’ve bought, a ~$10 green/teal birdsnest (top center). I like how it’s grown into an almost perfect spherical shape. I also appreciate how a “cheap” coral like a birdsnest can turn into something so beautiful and unique.

I’d love to see some other big birdsnest colonies or favorite coral from your tank and why it’s your favorite.
