I picked the wrong time to walk back into this thread!

I'll have pics of Buttercup soon. We hadn't named her yet but that may pass the kid's approval dunno. Had the lights off quite a bit yesterday in case my new frag was bleaching a bit so couldn't snap a pic.

Here's the fire and ice zoas from Red Coral. Thanks guys.

Here's some 'frags'. The nest was a touch larger than your normal frag. Thanks Kien!

The tank is looking very nice. Jay

Is the last picture porites or digi? It's kinda neat.

Blue digi according to Kien.

I think the left facing side got more light in Kien's tank. The side that sorta looks reddish in lower light...will get more blue.

Thought I'd post a new fts for fun. Tank's running well. Rocks still look a little green but it's the slightest of films. The crabs and snails are doing a great job. The emerald continues to be my workhorse. She's molted a second time and is massive. Twice the size I got her easily. As for the corals every last one of them (besides the newest from Kien) are encrusting to the point that I can see progress on a daily basis.

My main three are still stable:

Ca - 470
Kh - 8
Mg - 1350

Not the clearest shot but it'll do.

Nice Brett, I sense an upgrade already based on me being able to visualize the future of those frags :biggrin:

Thanks! Already being planned and I know you're not surprised =) I'm currently in the 'lay awake at night and ponder the possibilities' phase. That phase drives me insane because I never have any extra money during it.

This tank will be a nem/clown tank when that time comes. The big one is grounded to the basement. My main floors are in terrible shape.

I was in the no$ stage during the whole build and of course the whole build cost way more than expected. I forgot how much corals and livestock costs. But my wife just did the "eye roll" and "let" me "invest" knowing that when the tank is filled, I wasn't allowed to upgrade..... At least you're allowed an upgrade :)
