Thanks for the comments. I am a little obsessed with LPS, especially elegance (since I actually have five of them!) As for the question about the Duncan., I recieves it about two years ago as a 4 polyp frag. It now has about 50 polyps on it, except when I get frag happy! The elegance on the left I have had for about 4 years and has about quadrupled in size in my possession. I feed them heavily and I attribute that to the fast growth rates.

Thanks,
Mark

For anyone that is interested...

I run a fairly simple setup. I am a firm believer in maintaining good water quality and proper lighting, ect.

The tank is a 75 gallon with a rubbermaid sump, skimmed w/ a modified ASM G3, lit by 1 DE 150 watt Phoenix 14K and 1 DE 250 watt Phoenix, I run carbon/phosphate remover continuously, I currently supplement w/ Seachem products. I keep a minimal fish load (2 A. percula, and 1 C. tomi tang) and perform 15 gallon water changes bi-weekly using Reef Crystals. I target feed all LPS with brine shrimp and squid (they have tentacles for a reason right!). I recently purchased an Aquacontroller Jr. and a Tunze calcium reactor which I will be adding to the tank this weekend.

Thank you for your comments, I will try to post some other pics at a later date.
