Wow, amazing colors. Do we get a fts?
Thanks all for your kind comments. I'll do some more pictures including an updated fts along the way.
Hey John, yep it's a red dragon, one of my favorites. . I got a very small frag about 6 months ago. I now have five . It grow fast and breaks easy . Took me a while to control my clumsy hands and put it places to avoid fish bumps. The one in the picture is a midsized one from the groupl

You have so many nice things! I think if I could grow corals half as full and colorful as yours I might just quit for fear of back sliding 
. The depth you are able to create with the different growth forms and colors is absolutely wonderful.

Thanks Adam.
Once I get to keeping everything healthy, I like to play with the artsy side of it . That's challenging since not all the animals I want to be neighbors play well together and then some fish,etc move stuff around. Sometimes a year or more of effort to get a coral to grow can be wiped out by a fall or a sting.
I'm always fretting about backsliding,testing ,observing, tweaking gently or making a small change in equipment or technique to make things easier. It's been a very good 5 plus year run . I want to stay in front of things.
When I was working I was a total quality type, both as a practitioner and consultant. . One of the keys to that management style is continuous improvement and seeking out opportunities for improvement. In other words celebrating problems you can identify and solve and thus improve . I used to say; there is no neutral;only forward and reverse. So, I keep pushing forward but slowly and very carefully to avoid backsliding.
Thanks again for your comments.

Crabs 
Crabs
Recently I had noticed tissue recession on a few of my sps colonies. I tested my parameters and everything was in acceptable ranges. Then I started looking for AEFW but didn't see any. Then the other night after working a 14 hr shift came home and turned the lights on a there on one of my valida colonies was a little hairy red crab with blue eyes digging into my coral. I ended up killing it trying to get it out. The next day I found a other one. Killed him too. I checked this morning didn't see any. They decimated my garf bonsai and my acropra nana. Hopefully they will recover..
