I still need practice on shooting pics through glass and funky lighting.

Great aquarium. What kind of lights do you have? Looks like your corals are growing nicely.

[CoryDude]

Nice purple cap! You should be proud of your tank's progression.

IMO, get rid of the green star polyps while you can. They'll become a nuisance to you after a while.

[wkada]

Very nice. That purple cap looks really bright.

[dustint21]

Very nice! Is that a 40 breeder? I like how deep it looks!

[Mr Cob]

Looks great! I personally like the Green Star Polyps, but they are best maintained on islands.

[Joshua]

Looking really good Bruce. I like how that purple cap is growing nice and flat.

[puretexn]

Lights are 1 250w mh, and 2 t12 VHO's that I switch out weekly between super actinic, aquasun, and actinic white.

Tank is a 46 breeder

I like the star polyps. I mounted them on the wall so they can cover the back glass like ivy does in the older style homes. (I know they can get out of hand)

Everything is growing like crazy once I started using the home made 2 part cal/alk dosing and mag.

Still need to work on my camera settings.

Does your Foxface act all emodepressed all of the time? I.E. running and turning black whenever you get close to the glas?

[rebelprettyboy]

[puretexn]

Tanks for the kind words guys. (I still hate Joshua for getting me into this addiction) j/k.

My Foxface is a pig. When I get close, he comes up to the glass wanting food. He eats shrimp pellets from my hand, and also attacks the nori while I'm trying to put it in the clip. Little booger got some sting in them spines, almost as bad as getting poked by a ray. lol
