Just the Tip! 36x24x12 45g Reef

Just love it, X! So nice and clean.
BTW, I finally got your old Apex programmed and running. (Thanks Mark Bianco)
 
Oh yeahhhhh, forgot to update this. I woke up this morning (afternoon, but don't judge me) and had a "mother's intuition" moment and ran to the tank. Glad I did, cause one of the anemones was sucked into the tunze! AHHH. This is why anemones suck haha. Anyway, I unplugged it and moved the powerhead to the sand over by the other anemones. I don't think the anemone is hurt because he was actually inflated and tentacles out inside of the powerhead, and he didnt splooge anemone juice all over the tank. Im going to throw some extra carbon in the reactor today, and possible replace the phosban as well.
 
Anemones are doing well. Im 99% sure they are all bubble tips (E. quadricolor). A lot of the more bleached ones went underneath the rock, presumably to hide from the light, but who knows. These guys slimed up a LOT the second night, and it all got caught on the gorgonians, so they aren't looking great still. Ive been manually blowing them off with a turkey baster hoping I can get it to open back up so I can feed it.

I am going to need to do a water change soon, and I put up new lights. I got a 6 bulb tek light fixture (thanks Carlos from Southside Corals) and put it up yesterday. Ive always been a fan of T5s and it allows for more spectrum options while sucking up less energy. Win-Win.

 
There have been LOTS happening in this tank. Algae bloom, new corals, new fish, new inverts... everything. I will try to get pics tonight :)

Just been procrastinating with cleaning the glass.

You know the longer you don't clean the glass the more you notice your coral grow when you do clean the glass lol
 
Wow...hadn't seen this thread. Love the rock work and choice of corals!

Great job...so whose tank is doing better, yours or the roommates? What were/are the differences?
 
I had time today to glue the new additions down. May I introduce Sungonian Island!
They aren't opened all the way yet, but they were very skinny at the store so I had a chance to try to rescue them all. Each colony has some dead spots (some more than others) but I think they are doing much better so far.
