Wicked photo Brett! That Salty nuts acro is one sweet looking piece, all of these wicked looking SPS tanks are making me regret parting with mine.

SWC Extreme 160. Cheap and awesome!
Funny how that works some times, any noise coming off of it? My API BM 250 is driving me CRAZY, the one impeller makes the most irritating vibrating noise (and of course it's right next to my bed).

Yeah without growth tips the coral (mine at least) is pretty plain looking. I totally love the growth tips though and as I get more of them I love this coral more and more! I'll need a pile of zoas in the new year so maybe I can snap a branch off of it for the visit =)

Thanks me too. My only regret with the scape is that it's a pretty tight formation and my frags are mounted pretty close together but I wanted lots of them lol. I can weed out the non performers I guess. That and if I pull out for a straight on FTS it looks like all I have is rock haha. Patience sucks!

Looking great! What's your dosing schedule look like? I skimmed back earlier but was wondering if anything had changed.

Thanks I'm still dosing BRS 2-part just a tiny bit more than when I moved into this tank. Used to be roughly 6mL of Ca and 8mL of Alk daily and now it's 8mL of Ca and 12mL Alk. So I'm barely dosing at all you could say lol. Reef Crystals has much higher levels than I target. I shoot for 420 and 8 and RC contains 480+ and 10+.

*thread hijack*

I'm jumping on Snappy's hijack as well. Here is my albrolhosensis. Originally from the Coral Master himself. It's tough to take a picture of it cause it's sort of shaded by my Blue Nut acro and it's deep in the tank from both sides. Everyone comments about how blue it is, electric almost.



This is where there was a square end when I originally got the frag. It was almost a frag of a frag that I got and that square end didn't grow for the longest time instead it sprouted from the side.

Dez your Nuts do look blue after all. Now I need to look into why mine are purple. Can these things bruise?
