Hello reefers!. Started keeping some stony coral a year ago after getting my water stable. Some are quite new, added on the last day of 2017. Not that colorful, hopefully not washed out. Cheers!

Opppss. I do have one dragon wrasse to stir up my sand bed. That is the reason for all speckles of dust on my pictures 
very nice. How is everything going currently?
What aminos do you dose and what else are you currently dosing besides 3 part.
How often are you doing water changes and how has your color and growth been?

I removed all pocilopora due to spawning. The rest is doing good. I removed one live rock to make some space for more acros.
I am dosing aquaf***** amino mix, vitality and energy. I don't do WC, so i have to dose a few more elements. Color and growth varies as wild SPS is finicky but overall color and growth is good. I am bringing down my phosphate with algae trough and everything looks promising.
