Now that just looks great. I'm really curious to see the long term effects that you and Ace end up with and what your corals look like and growth etc.

Looking good Mike!

I think your pics will come out perfect if you use a tripod

Wow! Your tank is really filling in nicely! Love the Blue Green Chromis. They are a favorite in my tank.
