Really beautiful. I like the fact that most/all of those colonies are unmolested..... not all fragged to the nub!

Looking good for sure!

Beautiful colors! Apart from 2 part, what else are you dosing?

Thank you. I used to dose ESV two part and just recently have switched to Aquaforest. Will pass a verdict in a few of months how that is working.

Along with dosing these, I do dose nitrate (ME nitrate) if it’s low and change 10 percent water every week with good quality salt. No other snake oil.

What an awesome tank. I grew up right next to basking ridge in long hill. Do you have any favorite lfs or just buy and trade with other reefers?

thank you friend. Long hill is 15 mins from my place.

I do pick fishes from local LFS. Corals are from other hobbiest - smcooler has some cool stuff...RAP is always a busy time too.

Thanks Ashish. It’s rightly called TCK molten lava. It has very unique branching style. Love it. This one came as a small nub and has grown beautifully to a colony.
