Reefbum, You are now officially known as "The Reef Wisperer" :lol: Amazing!

 

[ReefBum]

Thanks again folks. The tank has certainly matured a lot and I think I am getting to a point where I will have to do some significant thinning.

Impressive!! How often do you clean all sides of the glass?

. I clean the 2 sides and front every day with a magnet and what I can reach on the back panel with a scraper. Every 3 months I clean the coraline on the edges of the glass and back.

man, i would love to see that in person sometime... your tank is awesome dude... i know its been brought up previously, but i would love to check it out sometime, it would so be worth the drive...

anyhow, great job bro... a great example of what patience, hard work and diligence can do for a reefer... wonderul, absolutely wonderful...

Thanks! Just let me know about a visit... I always like to show off the tank.

 

[ReefBum]

Awesome. Insanely awesome. What is the coral in the upper left corner? Looks like a huge echinata...

Thanks. That coral is actually a Turaki.

Thanks. Not sure about the growth pattern but perhaps it is flow related....tough to say with so many variables.

+1 for progress pics. Amazing how much these things grow! SPS has an amazing way to transform the tank aquascape from two simple pile of rocks to a garden of rainbow!

I hope to see more people posting progress pics like this. This would help on planning and aquascaping future reefs. And of course, the sheer joy of seeing a reef mature and grow. Definitely aiding in the daydream part. ROFL...

Your tank is right up there with Peter's and Chingchai's. Even though, its on a much much smaller scale, the quality is outstanding,

Cheers

no offense to Peters work or his team (he has an amazing set up)....but you can't compare. Its apples and oranges. I mean Peter hasn't been in this hobby very long.....Reefbum has 2 TOTM and has years and years of successful SPS keeping. It's pinnacle really in proving he has mastered this intense hobby.

I respect the talent of all three guys you mentioned but this Keith has stood the test of time and won.....just look at his aquarium....its bursting at the seems with growth.

Very nice of you to say....the great thing about this hobby is that there are many tanks out there that provide inspiration to other reefers. Each tank has a different personality so the possibilites are endless.

Mr. Bum, that is simply spectacular! I just used the new shot for my monitor wallpaper. PLEASE tell me that's permissible!

Can't stop oggling. Reef porn of the highest order.
