Hey Thanks guys. Like I said, I don't believe there is any real secret. Just plenty of hard work and time. Even when things go bad and you feel like chucking it all in, if you stay with it. In the long run it is worth it. I've had an outbreak of cyno recently and a gold rim tang when over the weir and flooded the basement and at times you feel enough is enough but it just keeps getting better and better.
MKP. Thanks for the nice words mate. We all get that dream tank in the end and then just want another one. LOL
Hi Cheeks (Hi Robbie). Yep, the addition of the kalk stirrer and PH computer really made the corals grow. A steady high PH and lots of Kalk seem to have done the job with the SPS's. I just can't get enough of them. Money is another matter. The purple cap was a bonus. I saw it in a marine shop and it was just a very drab brown. I bought it home and put in under my lights and hey presto .... Purple Cap. Just lucky i guess
Curt ... thanks dood. I always appreciate your input on any of my threads and a lot of this is thanks to you. Cheers bud
Hey Maxx. Hows it hanging bud. Still got the bar work. Well, Lou told me I could go and get the 500Gallon setup if I sold the R1. I went on my bike holiday two weeks ago and fell in love with her again after a long hard winter. So the big tank may have to wait with baby only 7 weeks away now. I know you'll appreciate this. Here is a link to the bike holiday pics

Ray, TD. Thanks for the nice words guys
Vina. how are you bud. Yep, with the baby due in 7 weeks things have been a bit crazy around here for a while and I don't get on RS as often as I should. I normally manage a quick 20 mins whilst I'm at work but you guys are all in bed. Anyway, thanks for the kind words and take care
