I broke down and added a piece of dry rock to the scape. I just have to many nice fraglets that need to be mounted.

What are the new frags?

The 2 acros that I mounted on the new rock are both from Jason Fox.

JF hyper ventilation millie and JF Tripping Tenius

I just saw that he posted the hyper ventilation millie on his site as both of these were yet to be released yet when I purchased them from him at our local swap. He has the hyper priced at $125 for 1/2" to 3/4". Good lawd! I didnt pay anything near that.

The slimer is preparing to be epic. Love this classic acro!

Just saw the video, and very impressed with all the choices made for fish, coral and aquascape!

Thanks for the great compliment. I have steadily weeded out the poor choices I made in the beginning and have just gone with a lot of classics that make up a nice SPS dominate, but yet mixed reef.

SSC is looking delicious!

Great color since adding it in April.

Excellent! How do you get such great PE and colors?

Thanks! My buddy really floored me with these photos.

I will attribute the PE and color to quite a few things:

Lighting-2 400w Radiums w/ 4 T5's
Ecobak bio pellets
Heavy feeding
Stability with dosing pumps and kalk stirrer.
