Duckhams' 75G Reef Build - Eurobraced/BeanAnimal

[Duckhams]

Over the years i've tried the aip-zapper, super glue tombs, kalk paste, biological options, but the best method i've found is manual removal with a sharpened flat-head screw driver. A matted filefish also works wonders but they'll also go after every other type of anemone in the tank too. A sharpened screwdriver and aggressive coral cutters are my weapons of choice.

Just picked this up the other day. Pink with yellow eyes, blue rim chalice. Its about 5"x4" after fragging it up.

It looks awesome under the Radions! Though not very happy right now after being fragged and dipped.

Things are really starting to look good. The difference in growth from the Kessil's to the Radions is very noticeable. My zoanthids are covering over their frag plugs so fast I could frag them all again after just a month. The new pink chalice I fragged last week has already encrusted over and started growing at a shocking rate, possibly rivalling a hollywood stunner!

I got a new chalice that has really interesting colours, it's sort of purple/blue with green dusting and pink eyes, it's my new favourite! The rasta's I got from Kooka (thanks Phil) are already growing fast, 2 new heads!! and an old Seasons Greetings monti is coming back to life and sprouting little red polyps all over the place! I thought it was a goner, but new lighting seem to resurrect it.

Thanks to everyone who's come and picked up some frags and helped me empty the old system. Hopefully I'll have lots of new frags soon!

I just got two beautiful colonies but im unsure of their exact ID. I think the yellow/blue tip colony is an tenuis and the pink/purple colony is a microlades? Both are from Australia im told. Anyone have a more accurate ID?

I had quite a specific hit-list of SPS that I wanted to keep in this setup and im pleased to have been able to get most of them. I added a couple colonies this week, which im super pleased with. I picked up an Acropora Microclados which is a pale pink with white polyps right now, im hoping it's a strawberry shortcake, but until it colours up a bit im not sure. It looks awesome as is with the white polyps, so it's win win however it turns out. Here's my current acro list:

Acropora Yongei (Bali Green Slimer)
Acropora Microclados (possibly a Strawberry Shortcake, yet to colour up)
Acropora Granulosa (Northern Lights - love this one and its huge at least 7" across)
Acropora Tenuis (Blue Ice Tenuis)
Acropora Caroliniana
Acropora Carduus (Mr. Pacman)
Acropora Hyacinthus (Red Planet)
Acropora Secale (Grape Vine)
Acropora Robusta (electric green but instantly browned out in ReVive coral cleaner)
Acropora Plana (Purple Highlighter)

Im really finding AquaticLog helpful in keeping track of my tank parameters, the app is awesome and really easy to update (I should note that I am not a sponsor of, nor am I sponsored by AquaticLog, I just really like the site and being able to explore other members tank photo's, very inspirational). I know Apex Fusion offers measurement tracking as well, but I really like the photo profile options in AquaticLog. It's a lot of fun seeing your system profile photo log! This is actually where I first noticed Albert's (notclear) tank, it's a pretty awesome system.
