Beautiful March!!!

I especially love the 7 pic, that is a stunner for sure. All of the corals look awesome, so congrats, looks like you have the blue thumb :)
 
March tell us a little about how your keeping those corals\
Triton testing?
Zeovit?
Coral food?
fish?
Are you getting any growth or are they just staying the same size?

Wow. What is acro #9

acro number 9 is a plana! one of my favorites. Its pretty cool that it actually has a natural white to it without being unhealthy or bleached

Those look great! But, you seem to have forgotten the full tank shot [emoji6]

here is a quick and dirty one I'll take a better one

I have the matrix pretty high up I will take a side shot
she is getting lots of light

nitrates are undetectable
phophates with hanna checker 0.02 right now

keep both in check with small daily water changes (3-5 gallons)
 
Wow, another great looking Canadian tank. I still think there has to be something in that water up there. Corals are really colorful and healthy looking and I really like your scape/rock work. Hard to pick a favorite but I do like photo #9. :)
