This Burning Banana Stylocoeniella doesn't get much love, It's one of my favorites but hard to get a good picture of.. it's been mostly green but is now starting to get some yellow :)

very pretty. I love looking at your pictures. New phone, right?

Thank you.. I have a new phone but the bulk of these pictures are taken with my old iPad ;) I have the aquarium cam app on it that works fairly well and it's what Im used too using.

Finally Installing some fail safes, one of my biggest fears is a overflowing tank ( @najer ;)) this tiny optical sensor will mount right under aquarium rim and if my drain happens to fail It will shut down my return pump before tank overflows.

All the pictures and coral u posted look phenomenal bud. I killed my orange fungis plate. Would love to try another.

And I agree. Definitely plenty open space everywhere in that puppy. ;)

Thanks man.. my orange fungia is definitely moody and a couple times I thought I might lose it but it keeps fooling me ;)

Four 1" drains should keep that puppy flowing ;) hope your ribs are better, I had a nightmare about your tank breaking with you laying on top of it ;Facepalm Be careful man.

I meant to reply earlier, changed the lens on the camera and once I was standing next to the tank completely forgot what I wanted a pic of! ;Facepalm
Anywho, ribs are still not good, ho hum, my fault, the thought about the ability of the tank failing to hold water did cross my mind, this is where I was leaning.
Display left cube right the glass going "up" is the full tank divide and my front brace bars, it is quite sturdy at this point, well sturdier than me! ;)

Pictures right after blue LED's kicked on this morning, I love highly fluorescent corals so this one of my favorite times to enjoy my tank. the zoa's tend to wash out when the t5's come on.
