Oldude's little reef on the prairie

[Poseidon]

This is going to be a masterful aquarium once again, heck as it is now is GORGEOUS! I hope to create a smaller version for myself over the next couple years.

Thanks for your kind remarks. Good luck with yours.

Good to hear things are on the right track now

Yes it's much less stressful when things are on track.

Simply outstanding!

Thank you much

the tank already looks nice now... can't wait for another year worth of growth and coloring. 1smile1

Thanks, I am hoping I can keep things going the way I used to be able to, these past two years has been very frustrating to say the least.

Thank you

Thanks it's Cyphestrea decadia - sort of a branching variety of meteor shower. I think it's just in a transitional state in which the base is turning from cream colored to more of a greenish but I'm digging the purplish hue it has right now. Hopefully it stays like that.

Thanks, good luck with your "sticks". I'm sure they will do great!

Thanks, some pieces are starting to smarten up while others are still taking their time. I guess that never seems to change.

Ok, looks like I am going to be "that Guy" and ask for the behind the scene and maintenance specs lol. You have a beautiful tank on your hands there, and very inspirational to say the least. If you don't mind my ignorance, what is the last coral in post 50? The "stringy" looking one for lack of a better word.
