FarmerTy 215-gal No Water Change SPS Tank

Very cool how the urchin uses its tentacles to try to throw the eggs away from itself.

Yeah, I thought that was the coolest part of it. My male urchins release gamates all the time so when I saw my first female do it, I thought it was the same but then noticed the rhythmic, coordinated pulsing of the tentacles from the center out that I realized it was different. Then I noticed it was eggs being released and realized I had a female in the mix. Nature is so cool!

Haven't been able to play much with the tank lately because I've been swamped with work but I did finally get a Samsung Note7 replacement... Say hello to my new LG V20, my 3rd new phone in 2 months. [emoji19]

I got to test out the camera tonight. I'm pretty happy with the results.

While not my fastest grower, here's a time-lapse collage of my RCA Baton Rouge growing and also coloring back up since I added the fish back in.

Big boy is back in the tank. I wanted to let the smaller angels and tangs get acclimated before releasing him back in. He's grown quite a bit in the tub... Looks like a manatee swimming in my tank.

He also went back to his echinata snacking ways. He took 2 or 3 small nibbles off my colony.
