    Everything looks like it's doin pretty good. Congrats.

    I have a 40 breeder at the moment with many of the same stuff you have, even down to the same type of zoas. lol. I too have a 55g and have been thinking of switching over many times. How do you like your 55 setup? If you have any experience with a 40 breeder, how would you compare the two?

    Thanks.

    Haven't updated this in quite a while, but tank is still doing well. I have fought the urge to constantly add things, so I've really been able to enjoy watching a lot of growth. Below are some photos...

    Been a while...

    So... it has been a little while since I posted any updates on my tank.

    I have def. experienced some AWESOME growth and I have added a couple things as well. Even took a crack at fragging some corals because they were overgrowing there spaces.

    Livestock I've added:
    Orange Montipora
    Staghorn Acropora
    Pink Birds Nest
    Blue/Green Sympodium Polyps
