    So far, just been getting used to it. Biological keeps everything at zero. Keep my salinity, calcium, and alk in check. 10% WCs every week.

    Used some Melafix to help my Coral Beauty with fin rot. Reversed it and now she is not 100%, but growing new fin. Ick went away after adding the Hippo, 6-line, and blue blenny.

    Added some green star polyps, cany coral today, feather duster, Galaxsy coral, and frog spawn. The frog spawn is already bleaching, hopefully will make it. Only a small one for $20. The 2 cany corals I got today were $120.:eek:

    Real happy, and everything is growing well. Fish are healthy, and corals are all growing and puffy. I'm so happy.

    Let's see some close-ups of $120 worth of caulastrea. Nice tank pics.

    What kind of Zoas are those next to the caulastrea in the first pic? Very nice tank by the way. I truly love the 90g tank. I've said it once and I'll say it again, it is a wonderful size. Excellent work. K+

    Don't know off hand. The PO had a bunch of polyps and a pipe organ and the brain. I just got done removing a bunch of clove polyps. They were getting out of hand.

    In general, whatever he bought I like. Bright red, orange, green. Some yellow and green, and some orange and green.

    So far, the 90g is working well. Obviously I want bigger, but didn't know anything to expect with expenses. So far, it has been very manageable. There are lots of polyps, but I have plenty of real estate. I will make room by thinning the polyps and adding more corals. Got all the fish I want now. Only wanted to add a Flame Hawkfish and jaw fish, but now that my ick is gone from the last 3, I'm going to cool it for a while with anymore fish.
