Lol. Thanks. I only kept the borb in the 5 for about a month. Then the wife bought me a bigger tank. I sold the clown and chromis before I got the anthias, I just got bored with them & everyone has them already.

 

And nope none of my tanks has sumps. They all have been all in one tanks. I wish I had room for a sump...

 

as far as care...I had to spot feed it when I first got it in for about a month. Now it swims about looking for food so it's very active. It now eats out of my hand and im starting to feed it pellets as well.

 

This guy is very hardy. I know they've been nicknamed the pig once you get it full acclimated and eating. Lol

I hate to be the 1st one to break it to you, but a few of your sps branches are bleaching.

Lol yea I know. It's from running ULNS in the 5 gallon. I guess it was so clean I was starving my sps -_- now trying to find the sweet spot.

Dang, the fact that u do all this without a sump is pretty impressive. How many times a day do u feed the anthias? I've been thinking about a Sunburst or something for my 30 gallon. More pics of everything please!!

 

Oh also do u think the TV stunner helps with coral color or growth?

I feed em twice a day. Sometimes three. Honestly it's all do-able as long as you've got good husbandry schedule and good nutrient export.

 

I notice my colors pop more with the TV stunners. Can't really see it on the pictures tho.
