This one? Not a great pic -- the eyes are brighter in person. Mycedium sp., M. elephantos, I think. About 8 months ago it was two spots of flesh on a giant skeleton given up for dead by a LFS, so I picked it up cheap. It has recovered nicely; I chopped off most of the dead skeleton because it was too depressing, and now it has caught up with the edges and is starting to build "up" eyes.

Thanks for the compliments, everyone! I'm debating some major changes, so I wanted to document the tank a bit with photos. I haven't been taking pics lately except for babies.
 
Oh, DUH! The *dish.*

That's a clay flower pot bottom. The clowns lay their eggs on it. I just peeked and their eggs are hatching right now. It's so cool to see so many tiny babies! This batch, alas, is coral food.
 
hehe....that was the *dish* I was talking about.

I think it is terrific that you have such great luck with spawning. =)
 
I love the 'rockwork' on the back wall!!! That's a GREAT way to cover up the back wall - better than painting or paper I think ... :)
 
Rockwork on the back is cool but... Is it only on the left and right..
I see cords ....
Not sure if Im a fan of the complete rockwork on the back anyways..
makes the tank look smaller

Nicole,

Very nice..I never got to see the tank before I left SoCal. What big changes are you planning?

Keith
 
Not cords... reflection. I forgot to turn off the lights and those are my curtains you see reflecting off the acrylic. The back is painted black. In person I think the faux rock wall makes the tank look deeper, which was the goal. If I had covered the whole back wall it really would have made it look shallower, and the tank is already pretty narrow.

Keith, I'm thinking of converting to a semi-reef. Not FOWLR, but closer to it. I need something that takes up less time tinkering; you can almost hear my tank sucking up the alk and ca (fewer stony corals), and if I could not have to pluck caulerpa all the time, that woud be sweet. Problem is the caulerpa is on those branches with all the zoas.

Also, I need to get my subordinate male assessor out of there. He keeps challenging the top male and it's going to get him killed. Last time I tried to catch him, I drained the tank to the sand and STILL didn't find him.
