i just looked through this whole thread and i can say you just got me hooked on sps. those pictures and your tank are incredible. :bow: :bluenod:
i have a question about the softie tank you have. so you use that more for exporting nutrients right? what kind of coral do you keep in there to achieve this? i was thinking about doing something similar and it appears that it is working well for you.

Thanks glad you like it.
In the softie tank I have a variety of mushrooms, rhodactis, GSP, xenia, leathers - toadstools, devils hand, fingers, cabbage, colt, kenya tree, etc. LPS - Bubble, torch & candycane coral
Here is an old poor quality pic but you can get the idea....not much to look at.

The top one looks like it may not be Seriatopora_hystrix but rater Seriatopora_stellata. Hard to tell under actinic.
The second looks to be Acropora_granulosa.
Greg does sell corals but not in the states

Seriatopora Hystrix (recently morphed from blue polyps to a mix of blue & mostly green - still healing up after it's last fragging session.) & ORA Hawkins Blue echinata. I wish I could, sorry.

Frankie Hard to tell under actinic.

Lighting for both these pix was actually 14K MH. I seldom take actinic shots.

BigAl07 Road Trip?

That sounds like a great idea.:redcar:

Twilight on the Reef

As mentioned I seldom take actinic shots but here is one of my blotchy anthia out for an evening swim.
My lighting for a sunrise/sunset effect are a T5 mix of Fiji purple & reef blue bulbs.
