That is a ton of great looking zoas! You have a favorite?
 
Yeah, all of them! Lol. Right now, I'm pushing towards adding some vertically growing sps that won't bother each other. Cali tort, montis etc... I will update with more pictures soon, I picked up some nice additions from Orlando RAP

By the way, I stop by to meet you and your wife I think it was at Reefapalooza Orlando this year. Great chatting with you both
