How long have you had your CBBF for Mark? I love them but have never had any success keeping one alive for long unfortunately...

Thanks

Just about 4.5 years. I have another in my shallow tank that is coming up on six months or so :thumbsup: The key for me are the small white feather dusters and arctipods, but even at that, they are not an easy fish.

Fantastic photo Mark, I love the deep rich colors. What is the coral that is behind/left of the tort? Beautiful. As far as CCBs, man I think I'm a 5 time loser, just can't seem to keep them alive.

I love Cirrhilabrus jordani wrasses. They provide so much color and activity. Mark I see what looks like a big sunset monti in the background. Have you had any issues of encrusting montis growing over other corals? Any tips on how to keep them in check?

Thanks Dan, They are great fish and I would like to add a few females back to the tank once the ZEOvit settles a bit. As for encrusting monties, I have no idea what I am going to do with that piece. I have moves two pieces out of its path and I have no room. Its now on three diffrent rocks and even thinking about the corals in that area on those rocks gives me a migraine :hmm3:

I'm beginning to have the same issue w/my sunset. On the northern front it beginning to encrust over a chalice, eastern front over a Cyphastrea and on the southern front over some candy apple reds.

I cannot believe how much money I have spent in the past month. I totally forgot how expensive this hobby is. I should have added up all my expenses before I set sail on this journey. I did it on purpose as I know I would have said no way to coming back had I known exactly how much everything would be. Oh well, you only live once.

Never add up how much you spend on a hobby! it takes all the joy out of it!

No lie dude, no lie. My wife would be outraged if she knew how much I spent on my tank. Not really a good time to spend money considering CA's shaky economy. Ah well, I always go against the grain.
