Although I have not been very active on the forums lately, I wanted to share this beauty with you anyway.

The beauty of corals never ceases to amaze me every time.

Wicked thread!

Nice to see the progression of these imported & marine cultured species.
No doubt there will be drop-outs during the habituation period
Offspring of decent size is quite rare with these nice species.

Summer and the boating season have yet to begin.
Over the years this has meant a small "radio silence" on the forums, because my attention shifts to another hobby of mine.

But today I had a "ZEN moment" with my panorama reef that I want to share.



Do you notice anything? Let me know what has changed

Love the finish work! Puts more focus on the tanks.

I agree.
somehow it took me 3 1/2 years to get it done

 

[glennf]

These are all the system i have running now.
The total consumption of all tanks during daytime (15:30h) is about 4700watt
Average light period= 13hours
(2300+1050+1080+120+120)
The total water volume is ~ 6100 liters
I estimate all the tanks uses ~65KWh per day.

I took the time...

I am so glad i did the rescape on my fragtank.
Enjoy, i know i do....

The coral bridge in the frag700reef is adapting amazingly

I'm more a fan of Acros and SPS, but this gorgonian definitely deserves a place in my reef.
I have no idea what its name is, but it sure is beautiful. Most gorgonians feel fleshy or slimy to the touch. This one, when closed, feels like lava rock. The polyps are also extremely large compared to most other gorgonians.
