nice corals, reacotrs, skimmers, checkers, salt and water quality. Too lucky.

Well it's not here or setup yet so not quite there on the water quality lol

I'll post up pictures of the coral manana

Should be exciting to get all of the new birthday stuff set-up! Keep us updated!

Both reactors are up and running, GFO for a day, and Carbon for 2. The canister has been gone for 2 days now and the tank looks great. My checker comes in tomorrow as well as other goodies so I will report on the phosphate levels. But for now... Pictures!

My clown has really healed up, he was helping me take photos of my frags


Not quite as big as Erics maroon was when it would play with his mushrooms


Close up of him (you can see his little spike by his eye sniff sniff he's growing up so fast!)





Now for my new best friend, my hoevens comes out whenever I am around, he even plays with the magfloat when I clean the tank

Helping with frags as well

Love the close-up of your clown, and the first hoeven's shot! Glad to see that everything is doing well and looking good! Hope the reactors work out for you!

Oh, and the red grape! Love that too!

Good to see that you finally got a couple nice shots of your Wrasse Nick: He zooms around like crazy.

Thanks! I'll have to take some time and try to get a better one of him though!

Picking up some coral tomorrow it will be a long trip but worth it :D:D

Can't wait to see the new coral! Super excited to see the Red Dragon!

Oh the infamous Red Dragon. Hope your trip is going well Nick

Just got back about 30 minutes ago it was a long drive but it was worth it. Jeff gave me amazing sized frags at reduced prices and threw in a free ORA Pearlberry! They are currently dripping, but I'll post up some pictures in a bit

Wow some beautiful corals Nick, I especially like the dragon, slimer, and pink mille

Wow! Love the colors!! They are going to be even that much prettier once they acclimate!

Thanks! All of them started extending their polyps by the end of the night I'll see when I can get some better photos!

Some quick pictures

score!!!

Thanks The guy couldn't have been nicer. He messaged me before I made it home to make sure the ride back went well, and has messaged me the past two mornings to make sure the red dragon was doing fine. Top notch seller!

Looking good! The Red Dragon colored up well!

Yes it sure has! I'm very happy with it

Cool Picture of your starfish Nick, I like all of his sucker legs going every which way. Is "Mr. Starfish" his name?

He's pretty fun to play with, I love him. I'm still deciding, but it my be Mr. Starfish.

Love the starfish pic! Definitely a good one for PotM!!!!

Macro!
