Took some more pictures today and thought I would share

first here is a growth comparison
March 9

Today

Frag I got the end of feb. This one tried to go back home glued to Anthonys fingers

This one is a shining example of how tough corals actually are. It spent about 3-4hrs out of the water in a stainless steel sink and then had a cold coffee bath before it was put back in the tank

Sump that Anthony spent his 24hr vacation building for me (Thanks Anthony, It's a huge improvement over the old one

)

and for anybody who has seen my tank and noticed something missing in the photo...this is what I did with all my euphyllias.
It's a 60g cube, I still need to put more rock in there and I'm patiently waiting for my truck driver husband to come home again so he can build me a canopy with vho lights

Hi Marie

Your tank looks great. It is amazing how well your corals grow.

Marie,

I'm literally beside myself seeing your coral growth for such a short period of time. Now my chair is too crowded, so I figure you owe me a couch to surf Canreef on. <grin> Very nice looking tank your growing. Inspires me even more to grow my little frag farm into something like that!

So tell me the truth, do you talk to your corals like some gardeners talk to their plants to make them grow???????????????????????

You'll have to stand in line, he's only home every 4 to 6 weeks and I have a honey-do list a mile long

Hi TomR

I have no idea what I'm doing right but I'm even too scared to do a water change at the moment in case I screw things up

Will this couch do I think I could get it pretty cheap

and yes I talk to my corals doesn't everyone? You should hear what I said to my torch coral after it killed off a 4" square piece of a yellow monti cap. My kids think I'm right off my rocker
