Great growth, I'm either gonna have to send you a few of my frags to grow out in your tank, or am going to have to sell all my equipment and copy what you are using. I am always amazed at the growth you get in your tank.

2 new frags to add to my collection, a montipora setosa and the pearlberry acro from Oceanic corals. The Monti gives the word tiny a whole new meaning (and I thought the superman digi was small

) but if it grows like everything else in my tank I'll have problems giving it away by the end of the year

That pearlberry looks cool, and I don't for an instant believe you will have trouble finding homes for excess growth, you have some stunning pieces!

That Pearlberry looks like it could use a good fragging already. Can I bring over my clippers on the 10th????. Your sandbed is a little cluttered too, can i clean it up too?

No clippers but your welcome to come and clean the sandbed... (note to self, make sure all the corals I want to keep are up on the rocks by the 10th)

I refilled my calcium reactor tonight, that's 5lbs of calcium reactor media in 3 weeks and 5 days beating my old record of 5lbs in 4 1/2 weeks...I wonder how much live rock I have in my tank now

I've also cleaned up the sand bed so the fish can swim around again

I have a hard time getting a good pic of this coral, I bought it from JL last year as a brown coral with potential, it didn't fair well in my tank for months and I thought I was going to lose it...It's fine now

My overflow on the left side in dire need of cleaning

The camera hog, I have a lot of pics just like this one

Hey look!...right there!....in the last two pics in post #168 you can clearly see some bare rock

5lbs calcium=1lbs coral growth
