And this is a two tone acro, the tank brace is right above this coral so half is shaded and is producing an interesting colour effect

LOL, I wondered how long that would last

The piece that I got from you has doubled in size and growth isn't as tight as it is in your system. From what can see, those branches that are a bit more "stretched out" are white with vibrant purple tips and green branches. It kind of looks like a desalwii that Greg posted in his reefcentral thread. I've been trying to get a photo for weeks but I need to find an acrylic box to get some overhead shots.

I have reached the half way mark of my resolution to not mess with the tank for a year.

6 months to go left to go, there may not be any room for fish by then though

There is some serious coral wars happening

The potters are doing wonderfully well....when I saw them eating my sps I knew they were going to live to a ripe old age in my tank....after all aren't all annoying fish hardy?
