Starting a 240 Gal Cube Tank

After looking at some old pictures I realized my Photography skills have improved a little. Here is a growth comparison of a Acropora after 4 months.

Great shots chet. The growth and color difference on that Acro is insane. Great work!!

Thanks everybody, it's exciting to see stuff actually growing. I always had horrible luck with SPS so it is a good feeling to see them thrive. Now if I can just figure out my flippin camera I'll be good to go. I took some top down pictures that came out pretty good but I was moving too much so they aren't as clear as I'd like. Here they be.

I know exactly what you mean... seems like I struggled for a while and now I am having success... it is a good feeling.

Definitely awesome!

what did you do to change how the sps grew in your tank? I mean what would you attribute you new found success in sps to? Really, the difference is stunning!

Thanks for all the compliments. I actually had some small bleaching occur to a few of my SPS due to a really low alk level. I haven't had my calcium reactor up and running and I think that caused the problems. I added a bunch of new coral I bought from a local reefer. I will get some pictures up soon.
