New Fluval Edge 6 gallon tank

[MermaidTail]

Another pic of my sun coral and my new acan. Loving them both. My torch is being a cranky coral so I had to move him and hope for the best....

4.26 update....above shot. My torch died a pretty quick (and smelly!) death, bummer. But I'm loving my little pipe buddy and the colors on these Acans and 'shrooms!

4.28 update: exciting day! We finally have full top coverage of the frag plug and its encrusting over the sides! This little thing is a fast grower! Just wish it would color up better!

And couldn't resist another shot of the sun coral who was feeling all outgoing today!

Sad sad news update: checked my tank this afternoon to find my pipefish buddy trapped in the Koralia. I am VERY bummed about this loss, and feel bad that I didn't have the pre-emptive thinking to safeguard this.

I was reading that only weakened fish fall victim to powerheads and I just can't believe that. Hours before he was swimming and searching the tank like his normal playful self. Ugh.

Bummer.

5.9 update. Could resist yet another shot of my favorite, my sun coral from last night. Have this spot-feeding thing down, and lookin beautiful!

More pics, corals coming along nicely. Still need to figure out my jack lepto; its growing like crazy but doesn't look anything like what it's supposed to. Need to research coloring it up...

Nice tank--love your sun coral and acans! I also have a 6g Edge that I started last December. It's amazing how many corals you can cram into this tank.

Any updated FTS?

Hey thanks! Yeah- I've really been loving the challenges of this cool little tank. Coral placement and cleaning is always a puzzle, but that makes it fun! Here are some current pics- sorry for quality. Only have my iPhone, which doesn't totally capture the beauty! Any pics of yours?!

@MermaidTail, where have you been?

Hey! Been busy but all is going well! Loving my tank and it's really like a great little reef more than ever. Some new shots:

BUUUUUT....check out what my better half got me for my bday. It's proving to be a slow-build, but can't wait to get started. 60g cube! New build thread to follow!
