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.

just to keep this post going, here are a few FTS taken mid year. A handful of the larger colonies have since been removed to make room for some of those SPS in the frag rack. As the holiday is upon us I will have some time to play around again with the camera!

Stunning beauty. We can all only hope ours look half as good one day. Yours proves what can be done with minimal aquascaping for sure.

Between you and Brad, you're going to have me with only two large pieces of Pukani
