8 days until the ThatFishPlace frag swap! I got lots of hammer colonies to trade!
 
Cool!
 
I thought I might show some pictures of my 75 that I had thriving until I neglected checking my nitrates and it crashed[emoji24]. My goal is to get the 120 looking like my 75 did. Here are the pics....

Thought I might give a status update on the fish in the qt. Everyone is fat and healthy and getting along. Many of the fish are more colorful than I have seen them in months. The equipment is all running great and the skimmer is running like a champ, keeping my ammonium under 0.02 ppm!

Unfortunately I lost my Achilles tang for unknown reasons[emoji37][emoji24]

RIP Hades[emoji20]

Because the Achilles died all the fish went back in the dt. Also I redid the left side of the rock structure.

Looking good! Hate to hear that about the Achilles. All to common!
 
Since my last update a lot of new corals and a few new fish have been added. The tank has now balanced out and I am getting good growth and great colors. Pics to come soon.
