Very nice looking tank Ted. Those are some really pampered corals, because they look great!

Looking slick, Ted ! My cycle is almost over and I'm getting really excited after seeing your sticks grow. Also, the color improvement with the T5's is drastic!

Ted, everything is looking great my man, that pink Milli is looking sick and glad to see the rest of the gems are doing good.

Thanks guys! Now if the Cosmetus would just come out of the sand I would be really happy! Adding one "last" (yeah right) acro tonight and moving the cherry bomb acro a little bit lower to hopefully bring out some more of the deep red and less pink.

Thanks man! Hope all is going well with you. Actually you may have gotten something from Pat a while ago that I'm really looking for.

Got a new piece from [MENTION=259]MMreef[/MENTION] this weekend and love it. Got some nice photos. WCR Rainbow Acro:

Also got some other nice photos while I was at it. Couldn't be any happier about the transition to T5s. Never ever ever ever again with LEDs. I've said the same thing 1000x, an SPS dominant tank can look good, even great with LEDs, but with T5 it will look exponentially better!

Palmers Blue Milli, finally totally blue again:

Thanks everyone, and PM sent Dave. Hopefully today I can get a picture of the amazing Leopard I got from [MENTION=259]MMreef[/MENTION] as well. It finally came out yesterday while the lights were on and zero aggression with the cosmetus at all. I think I found my three fish for the rest of the 8-10 months this tank will be set up!

Looks great Ted! When all of those SPS grow out you are going to need a bigger tank or a good pair of bone cutters!

Thanks man! It's definitely getting crowded, but I left enough space for what I believe will be around 8mo of growth. At that time I plan to have the "gems" shipped to me in AZ and sell off any of the other coral (they are all nice pieces!) locally. I'll probably sell the rock with all the high end pieces encrusted to it as well. I generally don't frag anything unless it's growing into another piece or the glass. Never understood the fragging coral before it's fully grown out thing.

WCR Rainbow coloring up after cutting it off it's encrusted base on the plug:

RMF Extreme Shortcake:

No Name from AAcorals, hoping it gets its red back now that it's encrusted:

ProCorals Rainbow getting its red back. Had nearly no red under LED but after a month under T5 its starting to color up really well:

Lime in the Sky has one amazing baby blue branch and another one is starting to turn blue up near the top:

Nice tank Ted!!!
How do you maintain ALK and CA?

Thanks! Alk and Ca are maintained just using Kalk in my top off. I've been playing with the amount recently because the fans I am using have been causing crazy amounts of evap. I just switched one fan to blow out instead of in and it seems to have dropped the evap level dramatically. With no supplement I drop almost 1.5dkh daily.

The Leopard Wrasse is beautiful.

Can't wait to see it in person.
