Thanks guys! I few people have commented on its color before. Isn't this a common-as-muck monti cap?
Nek, IMO its red.. the second pic probably captures the color most closely.
attaboy, that's a good question. Actually its in the middle of the tank under the glass brace. If you click my website below the first pic shows the full tank and you can see a shadow in the center of the tank (I hate it). Its mainly getting light from 4 VHOs and maybe a little light from the halides (currently 250W 10K Ushios).
Cheers,
Chris

newkie,
growth is just amazing on that cap
i was looking at your 3/02 and present pictures on your web site. Seems like the march picture and current picture are really different. 3/02 is much more crowded and a bunch of the leathers and SPS are gone (or repositioned). Did you pull out a lot of live rock? trade?, frag em? RTN losses? give us a synopsis. I am always curious when some things are growing spectularly, but the reefer is also making lots of changes.

Yeah, I was on vacation and things didn't go well and then had to move the system across town. I decided to part with the wall look. Also I was tired of overcrowding, I never planned for success so when things really took off I was fragging a lot. Right now I'm trying really hard to resist adding too much (I'm sorta failing
). The idea is to have half the amount of corals to allow them room to really grow out. Its kinda weird now, because my tank looks so much less mature, but I think it will be an awesome look! The sob story is here and here.Yes, it started out even smaller than the first pic. It was literally just a "flake" of a coral in the beginning. I got it from http://www.coralsandbar.comscot said:

Hi Newkie,
You can go ahead and send people my way if you don't feel comfortable shipping frags from your mothercolony.
I talked to my friend (who I got your original piece from) and he's going to make me some frags on Sunday. I'll have to do it on a piece by piece basis for people since he can only make so many frags.
Thank you,
Rob
