If I'm lucky, my rebuild tank will be 1/100 as nice as your tank! You're tank is phenomenal. But you're probably sick and tired of hearing that.

Where the heck do i start?

Crazy stuff that tyree undata is amazing the cali torts are amazing the tub's purple navini amazing. WOW

A few weeks ago i asked John who had the nicest tank in the area and your name was the first to come out of his mouth, now i see why

That purple simplex is a real stunner tim. As always thanks for sharing. On a side note, Im also diggin how in amidst an 90% sps dominated tank that echino just demands attention

100% eye candy though

Looking good! Every time I see pics of your stuff it always seem to be better and better!

Holy WOW Tim. The 20K and aminos have have really shifted your tank. I think I am going to have to come by and have your tank tested for color enhancing supplements? I will need you to sign an anti doping waiver.

Lookin' good Tim! That aquascene's unknown is amazing! So I guess you like the aminos then...

 

[tfp]

thanks for the props guys . whats really cool about it all...these corals were all grown from small frags to begin with.

i've had to clip and restart many of them over the years though but the system is thriving right now. (great, i probably just jinxed).

i do believe the aminos are helping.

i think that aquascene unknown might be a vermiculata. i vividly remember getting it as 3/4" frag from james when he just got back from one of his whirlwind LA trips. it was wild and gets nailed with a ton of flow (even more otw) and doesnt grow bushy/clustery like a tenuis.

Tim thanks for shareing.I fell it's very necessary to see other peoples tanks so that we can see different styles of aquascapeing ect.

My favorite by far is the atlantis' purple simplex.WOW!John has one(or something very similar) in his big tank and I could sit there and stair for days!

Thanks Ed

 

[KEEPERZ]

Good stuff Tim-that simplex pick gave me goose bumps

 

[mpoletti]

Tim- These colors still do not do the corals justice. Can you snap some shots under just halides for us? I want to see the difference all those VHO's make. If you have time, of course

Hey Tim! It's looking great as always.. You had the monti eating nudibranch? (s) I was at Your Reef today with some large cap frags. They said they could not take them because they recently had an outbreak and did not want to risk it. Trippy! Anyways... I have a nice colony of that nodulating green cap I got from you about a year ago. I was gonna trade that in but if you want it, I will just kick down that piece. Unless of course you still have some. I was told that the nudis would eat caps as well as monti digi. BTW.. The caps are way too healthy. The growth rate is becomming a problem at times.. Pretty sure I dont have any nudis as my monti digi's are fine and so are the caps. All four kinds.

 

[boviac]

Awesome & Impressive as always Tim.

[MrMikeB]

very..very cool! As always, I bow to your reef mastery.

The undata is spectacular! I have a little frag (approx 1/2 in) that I can only HOPE one day grows up like that baby.

 

[Unarce]

Lookin' good!!!

 

[tfp]

thanks for the props guys

keeperz, can you tell where i fragged your piece from? its recovered nicely.

mike, that undata used to be HUGE...like 6" diameter until i found the nudis.

my approach to ridding my system of them was super aggressive and almost drove me out of the hobby late last year.
