Wayne, you just give me a call when you need me to come by with cutters :razz:

I got to visit Wayne's tank today, it looks even nicer in person. Thanks for the doggy bag Wayne! :)

Yes & I am jealous since I used to have both of those same varieties. One of my favorite acropora species.

Brad, Thanks for dropping by. Hope the doggy bag made it home ok. I've made some changes as you have suggested after you left and will be making a few more... just added a mini colony , picked up what I think is a Walt Smith Sarmentosa from Blue World Aquariums. Don't say it....:redface:

Greg, thanks for confirming... once they fill out I'll return the favour. :biggrin:

July update (minor)
 

So here is a new FTS with some minor changes... I've removed alot of the soft corals and opened up the center so that i can add a pillar like rock... not certain what I will do with it right now... next stage is to sort out what sps I want to keep... I've also added a couple dead rocks that I had and filled out the right rock formation.

I was looking at some photos yesterday and that colony does seem to have the same shape. I bet it will colour up nicely in for tank

You bought something you already have? So the first would have a friend?? :razz:

Yep. I am surprised that Len did not pick this up... He has one from CM but I recall the colours are different...

The colours are slightly different... Sarmentosa is another one of those "must have" corals for me. For some reason or another I just don't see sarmentosa often... Except in pics. Anyways, if it ends up being the same guess I'll be sharing with my fellow reefers...:lol:

LOOKING FOR SOME UPDATES....:Banane14:

Haha! I will try and take some new pics later this week.
Late jul and aug have been trying times for me and the tank...:cry:

Had some issue late in July with the profilux standalone doser and had stopped dosing for almost a week ( with exception to a few manual dosing) until I figured out the issue with the doser... The dosing pump for the Mg would not stop... Profilux thought that water had gotten in. Stopped the doser,checked it out and later that week it started to work properly again. It turns out that there was nothing wrong... and it may have had a brain fart moment...:confused: ever since it has been working normal again. My ca and Alk are lower then the norm but I have been gradually dosing extra to bring this back.

Then in Aug, one of my radion light failed... The fan stopped working... Bad luck, I guess...:neutral: called Ecotech, was told that I had to deal with the Cdn distributor. Martin of Modular Led responded to my concerns. From there on it was out of his hands and I had to deal with the distributor on this. Overall, my experience with Martin had been great and he was even empathetic of the situation... I wished my experience with the distributor could have been the same or better...:sad:
About 1/4 of the sps browned out as I did not get the replacement light until almost 9 business days later.
Anyways, life goes on... I am still having light issues and it is the programming of the replacement light... I am dealing with ecotech on this and the people there have been great. I call them between 6am and 7am in the morning before work and we are still working on it.
What the problem is is that once the lights are programmed and when i exit the software ( after saving etc...) it does not go through the light cycle and the lights remains on so I have to manually turn it off at night and on in the morning.

I have picked up a Apex controller and also the Radion TIR lens kit. I have yet to install these items and I will once the light programming is fixed.
I am now also considering in getting a ca reactor down the road as I hear so many great things about it...

Back to the tank, surprisingly corals are still growing ( I had only one frag fatality ( STN) and hope things will be back to normal soon. Sould have pics later this week ( I hope)...:smile:
