Nice

Great job on the tank.
Your corals have perfect color. Any pics of your lighting setup. Would like to hear more about it.
Cool maxi mini selection. I am a collector too. You don't keep them on top of that chat permanently in the fuge do you?

Nah, I actually got rid of the maxi minis after being badly stung a few times.
I'll take a couple pics of my lighting soon. I use a single 400w ushio 14k in a lumenarc reflector & recently added 2 uvl super actinics and 2 ATI blue plus 24" t5's.

re-scaped a bit. It'll need a few months to grow in but I think it looks much more dramatic now.

The new scape looks good and your corals look awesome! I don't see the lobo (or symphyllia?) from the other pics... do you still have it? Def on my wish list for my new tank :)

I decided to go pure sps so I can bend the fish rules a little. The lps are in a side tank.

Makes sense, I actually am doing the same thing. Plus, it's a good excuse for another tank :bigsmile:

wish I could get a better pic of this one, dark purpleish blue prostrata with orange polyps. Can't get the polyps to photograph right :-(.

Finished tweaking my aquascape, here's the finished product. Now it's time to watch them grow. Some, such as the bananaberry and texas abro are still coloring back up from all the tinkering. The rest have colored up beautifully since I added the kalk reactor.
