Been a while since ive posted pics, back in June actually. Well the tank is IMO coming along nicely. Corals have growns, SPS have turned from brown to having color, Algae has receded etc... I will let the pics speak for them selves. If I had a better camera id take a pic of the sps but they are small and the pics come out blurry.

What cool about that "Rock" Mark is that its actually foam. As you can see from May to now ive added more LR and its all starting to look like its one structure.
