UPDATE?

 

[shutiny]

Thanks, but not much changes except that most sps are gone. Here is the last picture:

Most of the sps have been donated to Monterey Bay Aquarium for a new set up.

i was at monterey bay aquarium a couple weekends ago and took the behind the scenes tour and one of the stops was the coral grow out system they had. The lady said most came from the airport when people were trying to "smuggle" them in the country, and the airport gives the corals to them. But i doubt that the multiple table acro colonies they had (most from 8 inches plus!) were from people flying with them in their luggage. I wish they would have put them on display, they had some big clams too and lots of sps colonies. wonder if they were yours?

 

[shutiny]

Yes, most of my sps and lps have been donated to M-Bay for their new 10 foot set up and you may have seen them in their holding tanks. I was told that some already being display in the old 500g display. We have some rather large colonies of lps and sps, a teal blue seriatopora nearly two feet wide.

I had a huge Monti cap that got way to big for my tank. I wanted to donate it to MBA but nobody called me back... I had to frag it which sucked since it was a big piece..

M-Bay has lots montipora so they will not need any more monti, but they are needing more of acropora. Any one have large stag like green slimmer/A.youngii? May be I can help in arranging for you to donate.

 

[DML08]

Darn!.. I got rid on my slimmer about 2 months ago also.. All though If my A. Hoeksemai Keeps giving my problems I may have to PM ya!..

I just love monster tanks, is this one still running? I cant imagine the running costs and maintenane on this scale. I think I will stick to my 100 gallon for know, got my hands full already with it. If you have time check out large tank in Germany of Wolfgang Colesman, one of my favourites.
