The arrangement is looking really good! Now you need to find the holy grail- true yellow acros!

Thanks Mike,
I hear you, not a fan of BN, but this one glows, lol... It's my only BN in the tank, only 4 montis, 1 softy, 1 lps, and a pavona, after that, all acros my friend... Have many frags glued down and under color up, but will detail more on those later. Thanks again Mike !!!

Look at that fuzzy face!!!!!congrats Perry!!!

Matt, he is a little cutie... At soon to be 44, he is my first puppy, so it is pretty exciting times. Over the years I was always moving with the job, have been settled for a few years now in my home, so thought it was about time, he is really for the lady and kids, but has taken up a sweet spot in my heart, so much fun!

Like you, I always have a few tricks up my sleeve, I have a few under color up right now, one is a deepwater, it will be sweet, and it is looking to be yellow. I have a bannanas bannanas lokani from BC in the frag tank coloring up. Also have Rainbows in Spain, and JF Sour Twist doing there thing. The JF Sour Twist is going to be sick, but I need a better lens and filter to get appropriate colors, soon hopefully, in life appearance it is very light neon green, with whitish hues in the base, the polyp color is still kind of not there yet... I also have others, non yellow additions, more detail on frags soon, hopefully. Thanks for the positive words and feedback, still dialing in AF, swiping the glass twice per day, with 0.00 PO4 and 0.2 NO3, this with a current fish stock of 1 tang, 1 large chromis, and 1 large female true perc. As you can clearly see, my immediate goal is re-building my fish population. Not sure if you use the fish v from AF, but my fish are now very healthy with daily addition of 2 drops on one of their frozen feedings, this gives me confidence to move forward.

Damn it Perry! The tank looks phenomenal :inlove:

Thanks Dom, as usual I appreciate your compliments! The corals are still settling from the re-scape, but colors appear to be trending, so hopefully I will have better success this year, thanks again Dom!
 
Thanks Mark!!!

Some of the frags that have not been mentioned, they have been coloring up now. Some with serious potential, the colors on others are really shifting right now, a perfect time to show them before they do their thing...

Hi Perry looks nice. The 6th picture down what is it. I recently got given a frag from another hobbyist that looks very similar.
 
Here is a really bad pic of my piece under way too much blue for a good photo but just to see if you think they might be the same. Its been coloring well since I got it.
 
Thanks for the reply Matt!!! Next time you do a few top downs, shoot a pic of your RP for comparison, if you don't mind

Just wanted to let you know I didn't forget this, the Red planet got really bald looking whe the blue faced angel picked on it and a picture wouldn't show you anything useful. It's getting its PE back and I'll take a pic soon that can be compared to pre- Aquaforest:)

Hey Matt,
Thanks for the heads up, looking forward to seeing your RP and transition... I am very satisfied with the direction of this tank, while I cannot attribute all the success to AF, I think it has certainly helped. The rocks have become very clean, the corals colors at the tips are noticeable indeed. Here is a FTS from this AM...
