Any new updates? My new tank has almost the same dimensions as yours, how is your flow and lighting?

The tank is doing well, I had some LPS die off but I didn't lose any whole colonies just a bunch of the heads. Most of my LPS are recovering at this point, I think the tank was a bit too clean after the transfer but I'm not really sure why the die off occurred!

Here are a few pics under deep blue lights!!

Very nice set up and nice custom radion mount.

Do you know what the name of this SPS is? I have a very similar but no-one seeps to be able to know what it is.

Nice looking tank!

I don't it's just a random SPS from YR... It's doing well though!!

I also finally got around to putting in a bigger return pump, running my reactors off of my Ehiem 1260 was leaving a bit weak in the turnover rate. I moved up to the Ehiem 1262, not much of a change but just enough that flow (turnover) is so much better!

Picked up some turbo snails today, and also a tiny little Rose Bubble Tip Anemone. The little guy is at the top of the rocks doing well today. I also have just noticed this week that I have some baby brittle stars, first time I have ever had those!!

I also started my vinegar dosing a few weeks ago and I already have to clean the skimmer daily!!

This along with increasing my Radion's intensity is bringing about some nice changes to color and growth in my tank, I waited way to long to raise up the intensity of the LED's.

I should have some pics and maybe a video soon!!

Looks good. All those corals will fill in nicely.

Looks like your doing well. I agree with tweaks with corals
