    Well I have wanted to change over my 75 gallon tank to an SPS dominated tank. I have finally accomplished that. It is almost all SPS with some chalices and a few other random corals. I had to traded in my blue throat trigger, coral beauty and lawnmower blenny. I also just purchased two new clowns that caught my eye. A semi picasso and naked percula. Well here are some pics.

    It is a dry heat, yeah right !
    A rather large change for a months time, congrats.

    Do you know the name of your favorite coral by chance, I have something similar but no ID to go with it.

    The tank looks excellent.

    Which picture were you talking about. The first one was a green slimer.

    I had all of the SPS in my 60 gallon cube and was just waiting to move them over when I thought it was the right time.

    Yeah sorry it was the first image of sps. I kinda of figured it was a slimer. Does it have long polyps, is it furry. I thought I had a slimer but no so sure now looking at your images and others.

    Oh and how long did you wait to make the transfer? I will be doing something similar but do not want to make the move too quickly (need the tank first though).
