These corals need a trim as they are growing out of the water, breaking the surface:

Excellent work Tony. Its too bad you lost the Echinata. I also had a decent sized colony - I lost it along with my WHOLE SPS collection a few months back. :( I got it from Vince - he might have got it from Jawsee? Mine did very well and started to grow nicely. :( I also lost some other nice pieces - Cali Tort, an identical ORA Bellina, etc etc. All gone mate! :( I still have photos...I will post photos of them once I get a new build thread going.

I will visit you in the next few weeks perhaps when I have some spare cash and feel my tank is ready.

I had two lovely maxima clams; one did get pinched mantle when I first got it, but a dip sorted it out. I had them for two years, when I sold them to my LFS a few months back after the demise of my SPS corals I got £150 credit for them.

I'd like to measure the PAR levels of the Narva Blue and the Aquamedic Whites - see how they compare (if they are similar age).

Well, your tank is doing superb - one of the best in the UK to be honest; and all without bells and whistles (no zeovit etc), just basic good husbandary and reefkeeping skills. Well done mate.

PS your yellow tangs look so nice against rest of the tank! Good choice in fish!
 
Tank is looking great Tony. Seen some nice frag collection up for grabs and will pop over to yours once cube is up and running and by the way that setosa is looking good :).

Not a lot has changed since the last update, a bit of growth, a load more frags on the sand bed at the back from where I cleaned the glass with the mag float and can't be bothered to pick up.

Here's my little clam club and a couple of other shots:

This one is extra stunning:

The Setosa continues to grow rapidly (as do almost all other corals, bar LPS which are slower) here's some photos:

And one more for luck
