Dude, does reefing ever stress you out? This is supposed to be relaxing. I love my sps, but man....
Lol constantly. You will rarely find me sitting watching and relaxing by my tank.
I’m always finding something that is “wrong” that I perceive to be the root cause for all my sps slow growth issues lol.

side note: My acros are finally growing a little quicker than they have been in the past, something I have changed must have actually been detrimental.:D

I love it but it grows lightning fast and spreads on rock so fast. Hopefully I can find a spot for it after my big rescape, if not I might have to frag it up :(
Gorgeous Monti! Keep it low and let it grow, frags are always a plus!
Lol, foxface is camouflaged still.

Seriously had to squint and zoom to see him, so amazing that they can camo so well!

Works great, and now I'm gonna have a photo overload
As always looks great! One suggestion for your rescape if you do more, drill holes and add acrylic rods between 2 pieces for added stability.

Love Monterey Bay Aquarium! At one time the outer bay exhibit had the largest acrylic panel on the planet at 12.5" thick and the panel was seamed on site. The seams are perfect and hard to detect without looking hard from a side angle. Love the Leopard and Smooth Hound Sharks as well!

Wow! I have not been to the Monterey Bay Aquarium in a long time. I didnt know they had the tropical reef tank. I need to stop sleeping on Monterey! I see a long weekend in my near future. Btw, great looking pictures.
