love all the colors...you are giving me lots of ideas of what to add to the top portion of my 300. Just going to add a few super special sps... which will be mixed reef when I do. Tank is bare bottom, except back right corner has 20 pounds of sand for 2 wrasses...

Yeah. Acros are super happy with 500-700 PAR and high flow and LPS are happy on the bottom.

Incredible! Inspiring for this LPS reefer, some of those close-ups remind me of magic rocks from the 70s, anyone remember them?
can you tell us a bit about your feeding practice? supplements? Remarkable growth here, would love to learn more about your approach for such explosive growth!

In summary, I don’t feed corals. Fishes get quality food (Piscine PE mysis and Nori sheet) daily as well I maintain nitrate at around 15. Sometimes it requires dosing nitrates (ESV, brightwell or ME nitrate are the ones I have used in the past). I also feel dosing little bit of Tropic Marine trace elements helps in bringing the colors out.

Re-Aquascaping is complete. All acros have been mounted on “Tonga” like branches for good flow around them. Large colonies were sold off and I also took opportunity to add some more tenuis and Millies.

Amazing tank. I will be following this.The tank is up and running for two years now and the little frags have grown to beautiful colonies. First a little introduction of the tank.
Tank Spec: Customer Miracles aquarium with external overflow. Dimension - 72"X36"X30".
Lighting: 8X80 ATI sunpower fixture with all ATI bulbs, 1 400 Watt radium 20K and 2 Kessils.
Sump: 150 Gallon sump built by Miracles aquarium to my specs
Dosing: GEO 818 Calcium reactor with Aquarium plants equipments
Export: oversized DIABLO skimmer, GFO, Carbon
The tank has been setup since 2013 June. All corals started with 1-2" frags. The vision is to build a SPS dominated tank with Zoas and LPS on the sandbed. the center arc took me a few hours inside the tank. Feedback welcome. Here are some pictures...
