Added some son coral. Hopefully they open up.
 
Dendro's and Sun Corals are awesome especially when you have them as large colonies like the ones in Steinhart aquarium.
 
I tried dendros once. I was committed to feeding but my shrimp was committed to stealing all their food. If you don't have a shrimp, don't get one. Besides trouble feeding it bothered them and kept them closed up.

Yea, I had the same problem when I had my 72G. 2 cleaner shrimp's would always fight for the food. Not planning on putting a shrimp at this point. But in this hobby things always change...lol..
 
looking good Bud!!! I am headed to Phan Thiet tomorrow. I will come back with a bunch of Zoa's. Wish I could send you some. Love the Dendro's! I would love to keep some but I am scared of their feeding demands...

Wish you could send me some too :) :) :)
 
Looking really good! You'll have to post updated pics every month or so to document the growth. Really like the "no frag plug" look.

Just read through your build thread. Good read and nice work!

I never caught what lighting your are using in the above pic? T5s?

I saw you got some Kessils a little after this pic was posted. How are you liking the Kessils?

Got a little impatient and added a little too much corals from the start. Didn't go as planned. Started feeding the tank too much and my phosphate went up and came the algae. Fish didn't make it. With the picture above I was using 2 PAR38 and was surprised on how well it did. The kessil have been doing good with all the corals that I have in the tank now. Just waiting for things to settle down until I add more stuff. Thank you
 
Some of the Z and P that will be going in.....

I believe I have the orange with light green in the center, not the emeralds. They look drab at first, but surprisingly when you only have actinics on, they glow. They grow pretty fast. Do they have a name? I just call them orange zoas lol.
