Seriously though, looks good!
Thanks.
I actually get anxious when it's time to take pics, they never come out the way I like or really show the tank as it is. But, it's required to track progress, so I take a couple here and there.
Maybe I'll bribe Wayne into getting some macro shots one day.

Pic is def enough dude !

Growth is coming along very nicely and color is good enough to see on my end, even with my aging eyes

Keep up with whatever you're doing and you're on your way to a TOTM

Maybe it's all the fodder/death feeding the corals

I'm gonna chalk up your success to MHs, and a lack of number-chasing

lol I think much of my troubles with this tank was listening to popular practices and thinking maybe I was just too stuck in my ways. I tried the dry rock thing, and the QT thing, and nothing worked out well.
I've reverted back to my reckless ways and so far, things are turning around. Just did a water change and hung out looking down on the corals, and was really happy with the color, PE and growth.
I need to get PO4 back in line, but once there, hopefully everything sprouts up!

Ok, right, I have a tank journal. Hmm, updates.

As most know, currently wrestling with a pair of Moorish Idols. Added a baby Majestic to QT, wouldn't eat and lost it. I've also added 5 Talbot's Damsels, really neat little fish with lots of color. I'll try to kill them one day, but not today.
Added a UV unit today, was given it and figured why not. Playing with the Tunze scraper magnet thingy lots lately, cool little toy.
Things are growing, nutrients are dropping, tank life returning to what it once was. Overall pretty happy.
I can't get Kien to come to my house for pics, so no fancy macros, just the same old FTS, a little older.
