    Very very nice proreefer,

    Great growth and coloration. Congrats on saving the piece. It looks a lot like mine when I got it. It's encrusting nicely and showing good vertical growth.

    I am sure it will take off well under that lighting.

    I like the peppermint shrimp image lol

    Well Bob no FTS, multiple bad things happened right after this image.
    Tank sprung a leak, probably from all the moving, not in a good spot either. Rock structure did not hold despite super glue/underwater epoxy and ties. Need to drill some of it.

    Any whooo. Last decent image of the RP and the obligatory polyp shot.

    Thank you for asking though. :)

    Looks great and that has to be the fuzziest RP I've ever seen. Hope it's still around and doing just as well.

    Thank you. :)

    Unfortunately I just went through moving everything for a third time. Still looking at upgrading though.

    Yes it's is a fuzzy creature, why my sps do that I am unsure, good flow, adequate O2. The RP is alive and well and still growing strong, they are the hardiest corals.

    Thanks for the kind words HollyG. :)

    Thanks Nismo for taking a look. :)

    Seems like I have been sorting it out for months now. I am due for a break in the coral/tank luck department about now. ;)
