Holy hell that's put together so beautifully, everything is placed as if you envisioned it. Just making talk but what made you say I want to be all sps dominant? Do you still have some Lps hiding on the other side?

thanks a lot. I do not have any more LPS, I like hammer coral those type of LPS a lot but I need to space out the corals more due to the long tentacles. I do have some zoas.

I'm guessing you live in an Asian country?

 

I say that because it seems that large SPS colonies like this are more common there. Please make sure you care for this tank in a way that promotes it's longevity and the sustainability of this hobby. In other words many stony corals in other parts of the world are or may soon be classified as threatened species and collection banned. It would be great to contribute frags of these corals to others who want to grow them out to keep them from having to be harvested from wild reefs. I'm sure you'll be fragging these guys soon as there's not a whole ton of room left for grow out!

 

Anyways the tank looks really beautiful. I like the centralized "bommie" style.

 

Along with the mixed colors of the SPS it's quite stunning.

Yes. I live in Singapore and our lfs doesnt sell frags. The only way to get frags is from other reefers. Maybe a 2" frag is S$30 while a similar colonies but not fully color up cost S$60-S$80.

I was about to be thoroughly impressed. at first I thought that was all from 5 months worth of growth. I was about to put some serious though into what i'm doing wrong lol

 

Tank looks great man. Really nice.
