Sweet tank, is that a carolinia or a lokani in the pic posted at 3:14 above?

Maybe?? Its an ORA that Ive had for about 6 months or so. I love it cradled in the Alternative reef piece, it will surely outgrow it but for now its gonna stay.

The acro is a yellow suharsoni, a second piece in lower light is much more green.

looks great but whats up with the frag plugs under all the acro colonies???? is that for easy removal or something???? i would plant those suckers down man there awesome haha...1smile1

The plugs are a result of me removing all of the acros from their original aquaculture bases. I didn't want any flatworm eggs getting in. Once mounted I gave them a nice Levamisole dip which knocks out flatworms and redbugs.

So far it appears to have worked as there is no sign of either nasty.

I really like this one, I can't get the green in the corralite to show up very well but its still cool.

Tossed this carpet in and it settled right in the front where I can enjoy it. I'm gonna put in a few more in similar locations and hope they stay put.
