I’ve totally filled my SPS tables with the exception of 3 spaces I’ve saved for a Walt Disney, Witch hunter and a Crazy T

Still have quite a few more zoas to collect. I also have Acans arriving tomorrow. I’ll be hunting down more and some master Scolly. The shopping list is getting close to complete. Not sure what I’ll do then, probably sit watching it all grow lol

Looking GOOD ! ! !

Thank you.

It’s beginning to fill out. I’m willing it to mature yet I know all too well that once it gets there I’ll be cursing the amount of trimming I’ll have to do. I don’t want the SPS to grow too high so I’ll be keeping it pegged back with the exception of 4 stags at the back. I’ll be happy for the stags to block the view to the back wall but I want to keep the front clear to maintain swimming space and flow. Think I’m a good couple of years away except for the hystrix which grow like weeds.

Nearly full on my fish list now. I have a couple of mandarins to add this Friday then it’s just an Achilles and maybe another wrasse pair.

I got a new ear muff wrasse about a month back. I presumed it dead as I’d never seen it until it appeared out of the sand a few days back. The most anti social fish I’ve ever owned.

Got lots of nice zoas coming on Friday and a couple of SPS. Pics will no doubt follow at the weekend
 
Time for an update

Ticking along nicely.

The SPS have progressed from tiny frags to small colonies. I’m noticing much faster growth as the colonies get bigger. It should start to look full this time next year.
