    It is a dry heat, yeah right !
    The euphyllia in the images ( yours ) show appropriate polyp extension.
    Pump/power head flow is so variable, tank size, pump size, location, age of pump on and on and on.

    Long story short, yours looks good. Something about "If it's not broken don't fix it".

    Thanks! Only thing I'm trying to fix is the small dead spot in the back left corner. I think by handing the PH's on the glass and aiming them at the back wall kind of towards each other this will push water to the front as well as wipe away the dead zone.

    Just didn't like seeing snail and fish poop collect on my sand bed since I've been following the rule of do not disturb sandbed(which i'm used to vacuuming FW tanks) But it's cool at night because gigantic pods start eating the poop.



    I have also seen people cross-breeding the frogspawn and hammer corals. If I could somehow do this I would be one happy reefer! But I don't think with skimming and all the filtration that I have what it takes to do that.
