Yeah, caps look nice from the top eh? I should have placed it closer to the bottom of the tank - oh well.

You have had some great growth! All in 10-12 months too! Great job.

I don't know if I missed it somewhere but what are you doing for calcium/alk? What do you dose or what is your maintenance schedule like?

Here's one but it's couple months old. Since this shot there have been some re-arrangements in the tank and the lighting upgrade.

Default Update

Well it's been a while and I spent all evening yesterday tidying up the tank so this afternoon I decided to try and get some decent pics. Not much has changed with the tank. I added a frag section in my sump with a 24 watt (x2) GLO HO T5 light, I always seem to be accidently fragging my corals . I added another Koralia 4 to get a little more flow but that's it for equipment. The other thing that's changed is that I've jumped on the KZ/Zeo wagon. I not running the full system by any means I've just selected a few products to try out and so far I'm impressed with growth and color changes on some of the colonies in the tank.

Here are a couple of growth shots, pics of these corals are about two months apart.



No good pics of the colony on it's own, that's it on the right.







These two corals pictured are a couple of my favorites
