Your tank looks like its doing really well. Are you having any problems with corals stinging each other at all?

Yeah, everybody's pretty friendly with one another except for the torch coral, which has managed to kill two corals, almost kill my palythoa grandis, and has managed to sing me on a couple of occasions (pain is not unlike a mild bee sting).

Not positive on the gorg id but it looks like a spiral wire gorg and a well fed and happy one at that!
I don't think that this one is in the Cirripathes family.

Thank you! All I can say is, be mentally prepared to spend some serious $$$.

On a different note Nepenthe ... how are those lights working out for you ? Thanks for letting me know.
Hey, Albert! Funny to see you over on this forum. The lights are working out great. I'm seeing some amazing growth and coloration on the SPS, even from those that were kept under halides before.

Your tank is looking great!!
Thank you! Here's an updated shot.

I like how you have the Kessil in the middle. The photos make the lighting in your tank look very even and balance. Do you notice any spot lighting with the Kessil being in the center or does everything blend in well with the two stock clamp lights as shown in your photos? Are you using the Kessil 10K or 15K?

Do you have any additional circulation running? I added a hydor 260 circulation pump to mine yesterday.
Your tank is just gorgeous! I just LOVE this pic of your tank....can't wait for mine to grow in better.

Hey glad to see an update. Your tank has really done some growing in.

I may have missed it because something some text shows up black and I can't read it, but what is the key, in your opinion to your success? Do yu feed? Frequent wcs?

And what kind of special filtration in the back?
