Mine is my buddy too. He still wants to hang out with his friends, but we're close.

I confuse my tank with others. So hard to keep up with all the build threads and life.

That is a great costume your son has. Sounds like your family had a great Sunday
I know ! so many threads and tanks, I got confused at times too but getting to talk to so many good people is great. ;Couchpotato

Great picture Pancho

I have that birds nest all over in my system, it grows like crazy. I originally fragged it, but it’s got to the point I’m having to snap pieces of and throw them away because it’s growing that quickly!

Thank you Shaun.

Yes it grows like crazy, I have two other smaller colonies in the back and growing !
I don’t mind though, just frag it frequently to get credit in the LFS. ;Smuggrin

Pics looking great! Love the looks of the corals and glad they're recovering so nicely. For the mandarin, you already have/had a pod population? Or are you dosing pods for it? I've been trying literally since I started my tank to get pods in and haven't gotten it to stick.

I had already a good pod population when my tank started and I add pods every two months to the sump w/chaeto and to the DT. The mandarin, coris and melanarus feed on them.

The recommendation I got is to place chaeto and add pods there, the pods will feed on the algae and the water flow will get them to the DT, seems to be working in my case.

Lazy day today, I took a day off since I missed Labor Day two weeks ago, so my working week will start tomorrow. Planning on a black-ray shrimp goby inspired in @Katrina71 tank and would include a pistol shrimp.
