    That's awesome and I'm thankfully (no offense) you're keeping them to yourself. :eek::D

    I love the use of the panduit, that's the route I'm going to head towards. It looks somewhat easy and straightforward for the a wire monster we create under a pile of water.

    On my way!

    Yep, I couple screws and zip ties for the wire and you're golden.

    So my tank is exploding in growth and color right now. I must have 50 new 1/16th inch branches on my pink birdsnest right now. My millepora has about 5 new branches starting and my valida and montipora cap have really colored up and are showing tremendous growth. My recenent frag additions are encrusting, my paled out pocillipora(s), red planet and green birdsnest are all beginning to color up again.

    Things are looking great!

    What coral should I add next? I am targeting Acropora specifically.

    I have:

    A. prostrata
    ORA red planet
    ORA rose A. millepora
    ORA pearlberry
    Scripts blue A. millepora
    pink leamonade
    Ponape birdsnest
    pink birdsnest
    green birdsnest
    purple tip A. nana/A. valida
    Green A. aculeus
    red Monti cap.
    purple Mont cap.
    Green slimer
    garf bonsai
    green Pocillipora
    purple Pocillipora
    Cali A. tortuosa

    I have alot of green right now, looking for some red (red planet will take of this in time), blue and purple.

    Any staghorn types that would cover this request and fill the upper space of the tank?
