Thanks, yeah the acros have really taken off. I lost the male orange spot filefish serveral months ago after having him for around 3 years. He got some sort of infection on his tail. I have now had the female for close to 3 years and she is still doing very well.
 
Nate, the open shallow canopy you have on the main tank (and stand) ,, where did you get that or who made it for you? I am POSSIBLY upgrading to a 200 DD (lawdog tank here), his is mounted in wall. I run Vegas and Hydras and plan to hang the lights using the Ai Rail Kit like you have. But I LOVE the shallow open canopy you have.

A friend of mine made it, however he is out of the woodworking arena.

I will pm you the name and number of the guy who build my frag tank stand, he is a professional woodworker and could certainly make the canopy you are looking for.
 
Stylocoeniella Swaying this morning, the video doesn't capture the color well:

Love the styloC's. I'm trying to nurse one back to health in a smaller tank. Polyp extension not that extreme yet but good. Mine is just a boring brown and green, I need to get me a fancy one. :D

I have 6 or 7 varieties in my tank and they all seem to have varying degrees of polyp extension. The one in the video by far has the longest extension, there are a couple that are more mid range and a few that have short polyp extension. They are a fun variety of coral imo.
 
I did some rescaping. Gone is the giant blue tip stag horn and in its place is a new shelf rock that I intend to cover with SPS.
