"Lagoon" pics
 

I thought I would share where my tank is at, since I got a heck of a lot of help from people on this forum! Its about 4 months old now I think, although I have had all the livestock except a few fish for more like a year. This was really just an upgrade from a 90G I guess. Mostly done now except for a little bit of stocking and finishing off the doors...They will be painted black.

Well its really not a true lagoon but pretty much as close as I actually want to go...

This is about how much macro algae gets pulled out of the tank each week...sometimes even a little more.

Cool pictures! Like the puffed up puffer shots.

Stunning colors, great tank.

Wish i was closer for some of that throw away algae though :(

Yeah I hate to throw it away...If I wait long enough, I can collect enough to trade for a credit at a LFS but it doesn't always work out. I have to be careful to keep the Caulpera happy and that usually means pruning it often. Its also so aggressive that I need to prune it just to make sure other algaes can get nutrients from the tank.

I found a few of these green mushrooms one day...not sure where they came from but they have multiplied like crazy and are getting pretty big. I hope to add more and more corals as time goes on. Only stuff found in lagoons though and only pink/red or green colours.
