    Yeah it's a fight to end all fights :). I noticed the pom pom has slowly started moving across the Monti and then the Monti began turning white at those points. The Monti is now 75% white and "dead" I believe in those areas. The only red left is on the right portion of it. The funny thing is my lovely ginormous pom pom colony has also started to wither and die off. I don't mind as they will bounce back as I had soooo much all over.

    I'll def take some pics tonight of what is left.

    A few quick pics I took yesterday. I opened up my scape just a tad in back, to show off the hairy mushrooms that have been growing back there. I gave the whole tank a good scrubbing too after this, too much algae :). I also Joe's juiced some majanos and an aiptasia that I had found a few weeks ago.

    My Rose BTA's are growing out of control! FYI if you click the attachment thumbnails you can view these much larger:

    Thanks for the kind words guys, hmmm I'm pretty sure the tank + stand cost a little under $600 with tax. I know the guys at my LFS, so they cut a little off it & also came and filled it with pre-made saltwater free when I was setting it up.

    Here's a link to where I was researching which dimensions I wanted before I had it ordered: Saltwater Aquariums, Fish Tank Supplies, Aquarium Products and Reef Tank Equipment - Perfecto & Marineland Reef Ready Tanks

    I absolutely love the tank, great build quality, perfect dimensions for a smaller apt. but loooove the depth & the shallowness of it.

    Feel free to PM me if you had any questions on it.

    That thing has really taken off since I last saw it. I like the coralline boarder, is that on purpose?

    Haha, I wish I planned the coraline, I can't stop it from growing so fast, I'm always scraping it off the sides and front. The overflow and backwall are totally covered with it. It's my coraline frame :)

    @1.0reef thanks!
