New additions after the excitement of the new lights, Mcoskis Flasher Wrasse and some random Hawaiian Zoa morph. Looking good already

Nice build, I drilled my 180 on the end as well, just curious why you reduced the drains instead of using g 1.5 inch pvc?

Quieter and like the size better coming off my returns and fits into my sump better

Added an ORA Hawkins Echinata, and a giant piece of cats paw. Also added a Neptune DOS and got rid of the calrx. Too noisy and annoying to dial in lol

Here’s a fun pic of my green slimer looking happy [emoji38][emoji106]

Also recently added a beautiful new Japanese Swallowtail Angel! He’s so neat. Excuse the chip in his tail, the powder brown thinks he’s a tang lol

Also,
Here’s my ORA Hawkins Echinata I got from TSM corals. Huge piece and really coloring up amazingly, still loving the Ocean Revive T247’s. Awesome lights.

Second pic is of my newest unnamed Millie I got from my local LFS, Coral Reef Connection in Sinking Spring, Pa! Love this thing, green and brown and pink with awesome whiteish and green polyps!

Some corals I got at RAP this weekend. My favorite reef related day of the year!

Nice!

Tanks coming along really nicely now. I decided to redo my rock structure though. Wasn’t satisfied with the available room for coral. LOVING the new scape. Coral growth is going well, but i think the corals aren’t soaking up as much alk and calc as I antispated and had to turn back my dosing pumps.

Here are pics of the new scape and some new battlecorals which are encrusting nicely!

One of my favorite views of the tank, from the fridge! Lol

 

[sternicus]

Got some new growth pics and some good top down shots, using my RAP polyp labs coral viewer

Here’s my new Fromia Starfish, he’s very cool but only moves a couple inches a day. I think he’s just getting used to my system. Also here’s a actinic shot, just love this new scape I’ve come up with!

Stopped by worldwide corals today. Kinda not the experience I was expecting. Some of the guys were stand-off ish when I was asking the name of corals in the 900g they showed me and I just felt like they didn’t really want to talk. I guess it’s my own fault, I was expecting people who were really into the hobby instead of one word answer guys:/. Oh well, besides that the display tanks look amazing and I loved seeing Casper!
