Thanks Chong! I like yours too!! ;)

I was proud of myself..I'd actually gotten all of the frags off the sandbed and then I moved the chalices from the cube into this tank, so they're light acclimating on the bottom for awhile.
Got some nice pieces from Dexter last week...the BRIGHT lime green piece is a Goniopora and beneath the Lobo on the right there is a purple goniopora I also picked up from him along with the two big caps. Thanks Dex!!:hug:

The 2 caps from Dexter. The one with the green polyps is starting to color up ..there was a little concern about this one.

My Purple Tang..the only tang in my tank. His name is Freckles :)
** Those are microbubbles..his 'skin' is flawless!!
Pnoyreefer -- please note your 'flowerpot' beneath his mouth. I think it's time I divided up those zoas on there! The rainbows deserve a place of their own!

Red Cynarina from Fali - beautiful piece! Thanks!!!
A word about my 'white' leather...I re-found this piece behind the rocks when I did the upgrade. I put him into a shaded area in hopes of getting him healthy & he decided he wanted to be out in the light. I moved him back..he moved out into the light. I gave up. Here he sits under full 250w MH's and seems to be enjoying himself. He's getting a slight green tint to him (no, not algae...)and I expect he'll be fine again ...down the road.

Lawnmower Blenny..everytime I tried to take a close up pic of something, he'd plop his pudgy self in front of me. So I gave up took his pic & promised I would post it..

:eek: wow....last time i saw this tank it was empty....

This tank is just to show that LPS RULEZ......

That toadstool is soooo Kwel....how is your sun coral?

Yikes!! Thanks for all the kind words folks!!!!!!!!!:flower:

I'm finding it hard to believe it's only been 6 weeks since the upgrade and it's full already:lol:

Hov..don't you remember all the holding tanks with the corals I had in the closet? I had corals tucked everywhere for this tank! The Toadstool is the Tyree LE I picked up from Rich Jackson - beautiful piece..it's about 5" inches across and 6" tall.
My sun corals are good, they were :sleeping: when I took the pic..they're in the lower left corner near the new clam ;)

Randy - all of the Duncans are doing great, definitely enjoying the feedings! Three of the caps are looking good - especially the bright green one :)
Chong - it took the Purple Tang a while to get comfortable and now he comes out begging when I'm near the tank. Not skittish at all.
A- As happy as I am with this tank, I would be even happier if it was as beautiful as yours has turned out!!!!!!!!!
Dex- all of the corals I got from you are doing great, a few of the pieces were put into my cube tank
Steve - my favorite zoa junkie... nothing will ever compare to the color in your tank :spin:
JH.....a 450? :bigeyes2: won't fit down the stairs...damn.


Great hobby. Great people. I'm still in awe.

Learned something about white balance on my camera, so the colors in the pics are a bit more realistic. My photography skills, the camera & lens still leave much to be desired..but I'll post these anyway :)


The new yellow sun coral (Bigbris) & Aog's (Jabol)
Shot the pic about 10 minutes after the sun coral was put into the tank.
