looking good. Any changes your making from your previous set up?

Hey, looking good. Glad to hear things are improving.

Any changes you made to see these improvments. I have been having issues also, somewhat along the same as you. any advice would be greatly appreciated.

One day, when you are ready, and once I to am... I do want to come over and restock my tank with your beautiful coral.

Good to see things are turning around for you Greg. I too have been having issues with hair algae and cyano which a year ago I had never had anything to do with, and it ended up costing me a few colonies.

Sigh, your "recovering after a traumatic 2010" still looks better than what I've got. Got some nice stuff there, Greg!

By the way, what's that first purple and green guy?

looks like a A.secale to me

Looking good Greg! We should start up a 2010 support group

Yeah 2010 has been a rough year for my reef.

That purple one is an Aussie piece and I think A.secale as well.

Thanks but a long way to go yet and a support group sounds like a good idea.

As mentioned dip everything no matter how much you trust the source, accidents happen.

Thanks but as mentioned it is on the mend but has a long way to go. I just strated the bio-pellets but I am using for just a nitrate reducer and not a ULNS.

Have a great day all, and I also agree with another post. Greg's recovery also looks better than my tank. Just not fair!

I recently saw a signature on another board that said.......There's two types of "reefers".....those that have had a major crash and those that haven't...................................yet!

Been out of touch for awhile so I am not sure what that even means.

Its such a sweet coral. Seems like alot of it has been coming in on these aussie shipments.

I'm sure you still have some sweet treasures lurking in your system. Always enjoyed coming over and finding something cool every time
