Nice stuff Des! That last one your pink tip purple mille? Mine's not even really visible where it ended up but not for long. It grows so fast it's going to eventually tower up from behind I'm thinking.

Yes, that's the pink/purple mili. I have no idea what to do with it. It's about touching the glass at 8 different places.

Dedicated loftOffice tank. Just a little cube for it to dominate =)

I'm curious if you've made an even thinner magnet scraper than the last one I saw to get in those tight spots!

Man....love the look of all those big colonies.....but they do create their own problems sometimes....I had a millie that I stuck in a hole in a piece of rock that I had on one of my overhangs....it was mounted when it was a wee colony and as it grew into a large piece it started to shift the balance of the whole overhang....I ended up having to redo part of the over hang to keep the rocks from shifting...

Problem is I have no water source over there in the winter (even though it's a 30 second walk). Walking buckets of water in the winter can't be fun

About the magnet scraper, it's still about 3/16th of an inch thick, I just scrape off the coral now with the magnet....now they all have flat ends.

Dez,
Questions about your DE MH bulbs.
I know that you use those cheap China bulbs, but how often do you have to change them out? I ordered some today. Hopefully they are good for my tank/corals, too.
Thanks Lenny.

Hi Lenny, I responded in the other thread. Hope this helps.
