as always (except for that one time when it didn't) tank is looking slick man!! Really love that GSP wall. I keep thinking about doing that to my overflow wall but I'm terrified to try LOL.

thanks Kien!!!! I can't believe it's been almost two years since incident. there are still a few corals that am still trying to find again..... maybe you have a few of them that you can send my way!!!!!!! as per the GSP overflow so far so good! so long as you dont have any rockwork near the wall it's all good!

on a side note you got to teach me how to get those very clean photos!!!!!! if my photos are good! yours are amazing!!!!!

Your tank looks great as usual! I have a very similar A exquisita that has also been ID'ed as such. Does yours get neon green highlights on the tips of the corallites? It took almost a year to acclimate to my tank, and frags that I've given away have been terrible to acclimate too.

as always thanks for the kind words Myka!!!! Yes the exquisita does have neon green highlights on the tips of the corallites. This is one of my original frag in the system and I've seen a little bit of the neon green highlights before but not as promenant as now.

It's a fussy piece, eh? Very changeable. Mine was doing real good until I cleaned my return pump near Christmas and didn't realize the darn stag was sticking out of the water by 3".

I know what you mean, there is still a lot more room to improve specially with the color.

hopefully you didn't have your lights on...... the yellow/green acro behind it fades every time i do a water change coz just like you about 3" of is exposed to the air and my lights are on, so since then I've cut my water change from 20 gallon to 15 gallon just to ensure that this coral stays in the water.....

Oh but I did! The tips were out of the water for about an hour with halides baking them. Needless to say, they soon after received a 3" trim.
