    Looks good, like the new scape. How's the pinktail trigger behave?

    Thanks a lot.

    The pinktail is fairly peaceful. it doesn't eat my shrimp. it sometimes chases new additions around a little but nothing major. I started introducing new additions by cupping them in my hand and releasing them at the bottom of the tank near the rocks, this seems to work. If i drop anything into the tank he thinks it's food so u have to be careful there. He nips my stylophora but no other corals. he also nips my live rock. i think he does these two things to file his teeth down. He moves around the sand a bit and small rocks.
    He is a great fish and i love having him. he has a lot of personality and lets me hand feed him. i think he would be a problem with sps but i don't really plan on having many of those. I have him with a yellow tang, lawnmower blenny, fairy wrasse and a pair of clowns without any problems so far.

    New bulbs

    So, I recently changed out my bulbs and I'm very very happy with them. I love the color and the corals really glow. I got Wavepoint bulbs; 1 reef wave,1 blue wave and 2 sun wave bulbs. Anyway here are some pics. Tell me what you think.

    All bulbs on

    Thank you.
    The zoas are more of a mint green than cream.

    Thanks.

    You know we want to see pics of the new bulbs over the tank and how they make your tank look.
