    I'll keep that in mind. At this point with my reef tank I'm more concerened with color than growth. I've got some nice colonies that started as tiny pieces that are big but I'd rather have them smaller and glowing. It's gonna be weird switching from halide to led though, I'm a bit nervous. I'm looking at 2 of Xr-15 pro for the 75 gallon.

    An excuse to set up another tank! On the serious side - I sell out of the frag tank (for the most part) the grow out tank are frags I want to grow into colonies and then move into my new display tank once up and running. Eventually I want to swap out the 75 for a 120.

    So little update. The 60 has now replaced the 30. Winter has paused the stand build. Its okay though - doing it right. Everything seems to be doing very well. through trade I just picked up some really high end sticks and yes a few more chalices also a couple of off the charts acans.

    I will get some pics up.
