I’m having some growth spurts. I think finally having my temperature stable helps. Here’s the SCOP again with at least 1/4” of growth in a month.

Ahhh busted! I’ve been looking at lagoon style reefs on IG tonight and trying to decide where I’ll put the corals. One is by Martin_s_k - you have to check it out. I like how he has some softies and Lps incorporated beautifully. I got the minimalist idea of the small panel next to the wall to hide the overflow box and pump backs.

I will check him out. Sometimes I wish I could have LPS ( angel, Idol), but other times I don't. LPS is all the rage these days, but man some of them are expensive for they are. How long do you have until you have the systems ready for these corals?

Been following him for a while too. That has to be the cleanest reef ever. From the main tank to the sump to his equipment room. Everything is clean and organized.

They say 4 weeks on build time, so I should get it in three weeks. A couple hours to glue it together and I’ll start filling it with water the next day. Followed by 5 or so rock structures. Corals probably a month after that. Depends on the algae outbreak. All my rock has been sitting in tubs without light for a couple of months so it would be best if I didn’t add it all at one time. 3 months from now would probably be where my guess would be so April 22. Let’s see how close I am when we get there

It is incredible - so clean. I could have a room that clean too if I didn’t have property and boats and stuff to take care of and maintain all the time (which I also enjoy...) The display tanks I am pretty particular with keeping tidy. The sump room not so much. Organized and clean, but not something that I care to showcase much. It’s like a mechanical closet to me, but for fishy stuff. Maybe someday...

That is not very far away at all! having those rock already in tubs is going to be a huge benefit for sure on time for the corals.
Holding you do that date!

I know right? The only time my stuff looked that good was when it was brand new. It went downhill from there. lol

I'm learning my new rig: Canon EOS RP. I tried letting it do it's thing with auto ISO setting, but after getting these up on the PC I see that I need to drop the ISO waaaay down and set up a tripod for deeper colors and less grain. I'm pretty stoked to have a camera that is a little more modern than my v1 5D. I'm using the K setting to 10,000 with these, but will try to work with the custom white balance once I become more comfortable with the settings as it is. It's pretty spot on with the colors though which makes it more fun to not have to spend a bunch of time in Lightroom adjusting stuff.

Wow, beautiful @panic! I just received the Lemon Peel in a Battlebox, and after seeing this picture, I am even more excited about how it will grow out!These two are very similar...
