lol, no, I said there were no SPS guys that needed any frags :) Which you can clearly see is true with both these tanks. The corals do look strangely familiar though :)

I had a yellow, purple, sailfin and an achilles that lived together for years. Then they decided to go at each other to the point the yellow and purple had to be removed. Sometimes that's the only...

I ran an Iwaki 70RLT on a huge beckett skimmer I had built. That lasted about 10 minutes before my GF freaked at the noise and threatened my life. Never got to use the skimmer :)

It's always tough to ID acropora, there are close to 400 species and they all grow differently depending on many factors. I'm sure someone will have a good guess, but in my tank it would be the "blue...

I believe corals, in aquariums, get enough light that they don't need to be fed. They have no weeks of diminished sun due to clouds, sedimentation, etc like they do in the wild.
