    I have been strategically placing corals with gowth in mind. Not only space but how they will look when growing. Especially with my montis.

    I appreciated the close ups Tatted, thank you

    I totally agree, you have been extremely careful with the placement of corals , its going to look great as they grow and those gaps start to dissapear

    I "feel" Ya on that aspect

    a 6 inch space between 2 x SPS corals, is space enough for another SPS frag

    I have tried to do same as you with my current set up
    maintain approximately a 6 inch radius around each of the SPS I put in there

    i'm a massive fan of this tank, especially how well everything has been planned. can tell its going to be awesome when everything grows out.
    i think my tank will almost be that size (if i ever get there!) so this is particularly inspirational.

    can i ask how you got your rockwork to hold?
    is it just realy well stacked?

    Thanks for the kind words

    All my rock work is stacked very carefully (no puttys).

    I am really happy the way it looks.

    I will do my best to keep this thread regularly going with pics.
