    A FTS from a couple weeks ago. I must admit it is amazing at how fast some of the corals grow once they get a foothold. My Purple Stylo is just exploding in terms of growth and all the montiporas are completely fused to the rockwork with new growth. If only my acro would grow so fast :/

    Thanks! I am basically done for a little while adding new corals and fish to the tank so really time to just let things grow out nicely. Want to buy a house in the near future and I already have ideas for my next much larger build.

    It is a dry heat, yeah right !
    That looks fantastic.

    Acropora are just slow growers.

    Yeah, I went too far, too fast with fish and am in the process of deciding which are going to go. Good decision to ride it out a while and let things settle in.

    That's a nice setup! Can't wait for my tank to have a more lived in look.

    Very impressive! I'm sorry I razzed you about the Steelers....rest assured that the Bengals once again, have disappointed...

    Your tank really is looking very nice. I hope to get mine to a point where it can look like that!

    Fish need a lot of hiding places they typically hide at night, it would depend on how many fish you plan on getting and what kind of fish you plan on getting.
