haven't posted anything in a while.
 

like it said, its been a while so I thought I would post some top down pics.

First one is my Brain I decided to keep, the damage is from a fight with the anemone

the next two are two chunks of a mystery coral I got from Brad a long time ago (one of the only survivors I have left)

This one is one I got from a local LFS that was a goner, it had tiny pinhead polyps on the end of the dead stalks

the next three are ones I just picked up from Safari (they got a new shipment in on Saturday. It is going to be interesting to see how they color up.

Looking good there, Steve.. :)

Nice pics Steve!
That like the look of the last acro.

Thanks, it is all in the "Garage" tank, I started catching fish and moving them today so it now has 1 perc, a yellow tang, 2 chromis and 1 cleaner shrimp.. one more chromis and two more cleaner shrimp to catch..

the next step is to remove the rock from the main tank and put it into a rubber made container with a power head and heater to cook for a few months. Once the rock is out I can bleach the system, clean pumps and do some re plumbing to clean it up under the stand.

then I can move the contents of the "garage" tank into the main tank.

One good thing about having a problem that forces you to start over is it lets you fix things that turned out to be mistakes. :mrgreen:

Did the LFS that you got the "gonner" from still make you pay for it? I''ve tried to convince LFS to let me try to nurse gonner corals back to life, but they always want money for their doomed corals. Its like they'd rather see them die than give them away.

nope, it was donated, I did tell them if it survived and was deicent I would bring back a frag.
