Love it! Keep up the good work, sir.:love2:

This has to be one of the sickest shots I have ever seen. Amazing. Simply amazing.
Thanks very much you guys - much appreciated. I am glad you liked the reflection shot. Funny I'm having some challenges taking the surface reflection shots in this newest rendition of my reef because the rock is lower than before and since most of the corals are still pretty short there is a lot of area between the surface and the corals so the angle needs to be greater to get both up & down in the picture so I am not showing as much reef in the shot as I had hoped.
Interesting you are asking about that piece - I lost most of it a little while ago but it was about 9 inches across. Not sure what happened to it - I was away with work when it RTN'd.
It's a crazy upside down world
Reflection in this shot is blurry due to a fish that made ripples on the top but I still like the shot - kind of abstract
This picture is 100% reflection off the surface - kind of interesting
A bit of a different angle from the first one

Cleaning the back glass wouldnt have made a difference. Your tank still will be amazing.

aww sucks, but judging by everything else, I think its safe to say that its not your husbandry
mine is still growing at the tip, but it is still having deadspots at the base
Thanks Wayne - my wife told me she likes it better with the back glass dirty, says it looks more natural with the coralline but I like the depth the blue background gives.
Thanks Darryl, very kind of you to say that. In the future don't wait so long between visits. :smokin:

I've come to expect I'll suffer some losses whenever I go away. Some hurt more than others.
Is this a Hyacinthus? Amazing!
Yes & thank you. This variety has been a slow grower, got the original piece in spring 2012.
Thanks, what fish do you have that are polyp nippers?Very nice ... polyp extension almost makes me want to remove the fish from my tank ... well, almost
My SPS grows well, but I get far better polyp extension in the frag tank than in the display (they are connected) so I've largely concluded that something in the latter is a nipper. Probably the Potters or Flame angels, though a couple of my Tangs may be involved too. It's trade-offs, I suppose, but some of your corals are spectacular - well photographed too!
