:xd: So very excited now and I know you all know how I feel. Well, the next step is to mount all the new and old frags to the areas of the aquascape where I'd like to watch them grow and thrive. Oh how I missed them all. Of course I lost some other corals in the process of them being fostered for, but nonetheless, a huge majority of them are back in a new much more spacious home :tongue:

Wow its almost been a year since my last update in this thread. I have to say this hobby does have it's moments when you somehow, ultimately change your mind about the tenants (corals) in your tank. Am I correct???

I went from an all LPS based reef with chalices, lobos, scolys and acans to saying, "I want a few more Zs and Ps and that's it..." and to my own demise I turned my young growing LPS collection into a PalyZoa dominated tank.

From this progressing LPS tank...to...:angel:

Looks great! Nice z and p collection. I have recently gotten back into them too. I set up the same tank not too long ago I really like it so far. It's funny out aquascapes look pretty similar. Can't wait to see more.
