    Well I haven't really posted in a while so I thought I'd update everyone on the recovery efforts.
    I'm back from 2 trips to see family and it's time to start spending time on the tank
    I spend 5 hours on the tank on saturday. It's starting to look good. I was able to have a friend hold my clams, frogspawn, and Hammer so they look good and are doing well. I had a green with purple rim Cap survive and it to is doing well. I was able to frag my blue acro and it has some growth.
    I picked up a beautiful Kole Tang on Sunday along with a Favia sp (Pineapple coral)

    It's a slow road back but I have a line on a bunch of SPS frags I will be getting Aug 6th.

    I'll post pics as soon as the little bugger Kole slows down enough to actually get a pic

    Jason

    Good to hear Jason. Your tanks were always beauties, I'm sure they will bounce back. Kole Tangs rule! Post a pic of that pineapple coral sometime. :yaknow:

    What happened? Is this the tank that did not survive the move?

    I like the colors. What are the requirements for a Pineapple coral?

    Typical SPS stuff. I going to target feed it for a bit to see if I can combat the tissue loss at the bottom. Moderate light and flow. They are some what aggressive so I'll have to keep my eye on it

    Cool J. Good luck. What are you going to feed it?
