    Fantastic tank sir. Thank you for sharing.

    Coral list? :lol:

    But I am a bit curious about your fish stock (I spy a clown pair, sixline, lyretail, and some banggai cardinals) as well your equipment, specifically PHs and skimmers.

    Wow. Stunning. I really like the aquascape, and the craft paper substrate is definitely original. :)

    that is definitely a different setup that I really enjoy admiring! You inspire me to do something different for my tank. Please show more pictures, especially from a distance to see how we would view it.

    Thanks for sharing!!

    Its really nice to have people appreciate the tank and the effort as much i do, so THANK YOU!
    I am actually planning on buying a house in the spring(hopefully) and what i've been thinking about lately as far a new display would be a 96x36x24.. ha but i don't know if that's a pipe dream at this point.. we shall see what the future holds. ha

    thanks!

    ask and you shall receive.. These pictures are from quite awhile ago right after the tank was set up so the corals are kinda unhappy from the new tank parameters.. but it gives you an idea.

    It is a dry heat, yeah right !
    There is a large what appears to be tabling green acopora in a couple images, but it's too far away for me to make an ID. Is it the Humillis?

    Your list is so awesome.

    Anyway, your tanks are beautiful! Were these colonies all grown from frags? I hope to have a tank as nice as yours one day...

    Yup, its a Green humillis. Very underrated, beautiful coral. It was actually one of my very first SPS i ever bought.




    Thanks, and i'm sure you'll have one even better!

    Up untill about a year ago i had never bought anything but frags, I recently bought a few mini colonies but 95% of the large colonies in there were all grown from 1" frags;D
