Thought I would toss up some pix of my little nano at three months.
Still has a lot of growing in to do and a few more critters to add for color and 'texture'

Sweet lil tank you got goin on! 3rd pic top row, Lavender star polyps. Be cautious with them. They grow like weeds! Want them to cover your back wall? Just lay the rock against it. Like this! Look behind the CandyCane :)

Thanks! Love the look of yours too!
I am planning to try and get the GSP to grow across the back wall but have been waiting for them to spread a bit more across the rock before propping it up.

Nice :)
Mine has gone from a 2 inch chunk to a 5+ inch mat now. And my dang urchin keeps ripping off small pieces with its spines so I now have a couple small colonies growing in other spots too. LOL

Moving close to 4 months now so thought I should post a few new pix.
Tank is doing great all in all. I did lose the second royal gramma ,so am giving up on having one in the reef. The yellow watchman will have to be content to being alone till I can decide on another tank mate to try.
All the corals are either actively growing or at least looking healthy as heck.
My anthelia is exploding with new growth, and the GSP is beginning it's 'creeping spread'. I just wish the zoas would wake up and start spreading a bit.
Here are a few new pix from this evening

Tank is now at 4 months and looking awesome if I do say so myself. All corals including my first sps (montipora digitata) are growing and thriving. It's very gratifying to see.
I owe a great deal of this success to all of you here on R2R. You've all helped to waken my past knowledge as well as get me up to speed with all the new tech and the newest schools of thought.
I thank you and my critters thank you
