    It is a dry heat, yeah right !
    Tanks looks really great silor.

    Chromis add a lot of color and activity, very under-rated fish IMO.

    Is that a blue sponge on the rock in the left corner?

    In my experience less intense lighting makes RP, more red on the branches and a greener base.

    Yea the Chromis are great had them for about 6 months and they school and go everywhere together,
    That is blue sponge i have no idea how I got it but that rock was in my sump for a long time I moved to the display about a month ago and that sponge started turning blue lol ... It was very brown..
    I'll move the red planet down and see how it does.
    Thanks

    Very nice acropora, beautiful colors and great PE. Nice mix of the acans garden, zoanthids. I really like red mushrooms.

    Gorgeous clam.

    Cool tank, sailor. I like the aquascape. It opens up a lot of room on the sand bed. Some montipora would look nice growing off the sides.

    Chromis are a great addition. Nice colorful and active fish. I wish my yank was big enough to house a small group of them.

    Corals are looking great. Lots if growth and pretty colorful too. Do you dose the essentials?

    I like the clam. It's. A squamosa, correct?
