It's amazing how quickly the growth has picked up in the last 10 months! The reef has really filled out now!

Yes.....
I think that colonies had a "breaking point" or something like that......after that, the growth speeds up really quickly....
Maybe related to the increased number of "mouths" feeding the whole colonie......maybe the bigger area of tissue, getting light and growing zooxanthellaes....

So...........my new ICP results arrived.
Some values a little off....but nothing to pull my (few) hair out...
Just need to pay more attention to PO4 levels....the corals aren't happy with it.

These week I added two new fishes after a while.....
First I bought a Meiacanthus gramistes....a very active and interesting fish.
I already have a Smithii and the gramistes behaviour is very similar.
I was afraid that the Smithii would bully the gramistes but everything went just fine.
He is not feeding on shrimp nor pellets but he grazes the bottom of the tank chasing copepodes all the time. The Smithii did the same when arrived so I hope that gramistes soon starts to feed on shrimp.

The other one is a cirrhilabrus rubeus (red longfin wrasse)
I have had a fish of this one sometime ago, but he ended up jumping out the tank and I found him dead and dry on the floor.
Now, with the lid covering all the tank this will not happen again.
I was afraid that the other wrasses could give him a hard time, so I shut off the lights for half hour......and then put him in.
I waited another half hour and then start to light the tank up very slowly...
After an hour I fed the tank with shrimp and all the gang started to feed......and everybody knows that no one gets angry with the belly full of shrimp.....so.............. :p
He got some too, what made me happy......a fish eating well is always a good start.
This particular fish has a very unique and exquisite colour.
I choose him among other 6 fishes and it have a very intense red head, with a deep orange body and very notable blue lines over the tail and fins and along the body.....
These photos just don't show it all..........:confused:
