I like the scape of the tank and the growth of the corals looks great. I guess my only issue with it... it looks hard to remove the powerheads for cleaning?

Guess I should check my thread more often. Lol

Looks awesome.. What kind of LED Lighting are you using?
Thanks, it was a mix of neutral white and royal blue I built 2 years ago. Next build will have violet, red, cyan, blue and much more.

Nice tank! Love what you did with the aquascape!
Thanks

Not that hard, the tank was designed like Legos so that way it pops on and off for easy moving....I rent. The rock only touches the sand in 3 places and barely at that, most of ot is free floating with the rock epoxy together or to magnets. My only issue is I have too many coral's that makes it harder to move around in there. I need a bigger tank. Lol

Thanks. I finally got rid of aefw and can't wait for the sps to take off. Already gettng great polyp extension and color is returning fast. I might buy some new fish soon, maybe some long spine cardinnals. Still debating. The hardest part of this hobby.... too many choices. Ha ha

Thanks, tank is slowly coming along. I've been asked about those zoas numerous times. LoL They are one of the brightest zoas in my tank. I've had friends who are zoa and paly crazy that couldn't identify them. So I've just been calling them Fire blossoms. They have become some of favorite zoas.

Thanks you might notice there are two nems. The one in the background is pink tipped and the foreground is orange. The pink one loses its bubbles but I've been working on figuring out what makes btas bubble. I've noticed with lower nutrients and more peaks in the blue spectrum of light the bubbles come right back. Not sure if it is a combo of the two but the blue light seems to be a defining factor.

Really nice corals you got there :)

Thanks Patty. I am slowly cutting away and removing any sub par corals. I'm a fanatic for rare corals. Not necessarily LE/named corals but just corals that are not normally seen anywhere.

Looking real good, keep the updates coming!

Thanks Skinz! This is just the beginning. Hopefully mid summer/fall I'll have saved enough for my Ultimate tank. It is going to have a setup like no one has ever seen. Overflow and return that are custom made. It's gonna be an Amano "Nature style" reef tank. No more rock mounds or walls, or the two islands. Not a collection of corals but a full blown reef. Lps, sps, macro algae, clams, barrel sponges, nps and more. I can't wait.

But for now I'll keep the updates coming on for this tank until the time comes. :xd:

New trio of blue eyed cardinals. The third at the very bottom is a bit more reserved since he's got a mouth full of eggs. :)
