It looks fantastic! I love the colors and the contrast with the back wall and painting.

Thanks a lot. I didn't like the apple green at first, i thought it was too bright but now I do :) I didn't paint the whole room though, just two walls, the other two walls are a lighter green.

Just a quick update to the tank, everything is doing quite well and corals are colorful again and growing quite well.

 

Love this guy! Been growing 3 more heads :), one more on the other side.

Thanks :) I'm really loving it, i love how it's so meaty and puffy. I believe it was called Cherry Red Blasto, the one behind it is a Peter Pan Blasto (red skirt with neon lime green center). You got dibs when im fragging, but not sure how yet...lol.

Man I had a frag just like that, but it died during a bad period inside my fusion 10g. Your tank is beautiful as always!

Sorry to hear that man, I lost many during my bad time too, missed my Bird of Paradise birdsnest, it was the best piece i had back then.

Yeah, we all loose some nice pieces here and there, but whatchagonna do?. Learn from my mistakes is what I do. I would say that almost all of my coral deaths were completely my fault. Like the time that I scraped off my 100 head xenia colony off my glass and nuked my beautiful screaming green birds nest and purple haze colonies! I never thought about doing a water change when I saw all the goo that the xenia expelled. It took me like a year to grow those colonies and I destroyed them in less than a week. Duh! I was so mad at myself.

I'll remember not to scrape the xenia, but I have them on a separate rock. Usually when I see something weird going on, like the water become cloudy all of a sudden, i change out the carbon bag first then 40% WC asap.

been busy but took a minute to catch up and wanted to say ... glad your tank survived and its looking nice!!

Thanks for catching up! Yeah im glad to say everything is starting to look good again.

Took these shots while doing a WC on Wed. These guys have been in the tank for the longest time, only recently they are starting to grow and color up.

 

Purple Rim Monti Cap, already starting to split a few places getting ready to swirl :)

cant wait to see that monti spread... looks awesome under that lighting

Me too. Who say you need fancy light to grow SPS!

Tank is really terrific... I had one of these a while back, and the dimensions are probably my favorite tank size. But mine was never this splendid :)

Thank you!

Love the monties

Thanks man! The starburst cap has already colored up, i see its turning more red from the pale orange when I first got it.
