    This is one of the first tanks I saw when finding 3reef, haven't checked it out in a long time. It's an amazing piece of work. Love the plates!

    Thanks Alex. And you didn't even see the eye candy yet!

    Thank you. We share many of the same coral affections.

    You didn't get enough sustenance. :)

    For me, the AEFW like two millis (but not the sunset), valida, and whatever species that purple mess is under the setosa. You can see the damage on it.

    Yup, no Pocillopora at all... :furious3:

    All wrasses, minus that Tomini tang and the pair of B&W Ocellaris (my first fish). They frequently spawn and she's quite protective of a 12" bubble; else they're fine. I can even reach into that bubble without harm. (knocks on wood)

    Thanks Cheryl.

    It's not even the same tank now. :D This is a 190, up from the old 120.

    But I very much appreciate the compliments. :thumb_up:

    very, very nice evolved! I just got a nice coral lesson reading through and viewing all of your various species. That hammer you have is stunning along with many others of course. Thanks for the detailed update :)

    It is a dry heat, yeah right !
    That is so strange. Need to start a poll from other sps keeper regarding what acropora their AEFW are eating. I would like to see if there is any correlation.

    Well whatever Acan and LPS problems you had it sure looks like they have resolved.

    Nothing comes to mind that eats Pocillopora sorry.;) At least it's a colorful variety. Rethinking that request for a frag of it right about now.

    The tank is really looking awesome! You scored some awesome pieces at MACNA this year. Makes me wish I picked up some frags at Jason's booth.

    And I'd gladly take some of your Pocillopora once I have the cube set up ;)

    NYA Shin. Great pics. I was expecting a barren wasteland way to undersell the update. The branching cyphastrea is looking great Hunter!

    I admire your patience and ability to identify, isolate the issues, and remedy them so well Hunter. Seriously though, had you not mentioned them I don't think many would have thought you were going through some troubles by the way your tank looks today. A beautiful and diverse range of life, and all of it very pretty.

    What can I say? You are a rock star Hunter!
