1350 Gallon Reef

I remember thinking when he first started this build that it seemed crazy to have no budget restraints and still limit yourself to 3 feet across. You guys have done an amazing job though it looks fantastic!

I recall reading that Peter was sourcing premium stuff and not really starting with frags so it's hard to tell how growth has been. Have you seen a lot of growth under the Orpheks?

Actually, frags are premium, we have been buying maricultured pieces from tangerine to grapefruit size. They come in washed out and we do what we can to colour them up.

Don't even bring up the 3' across thing It drives us all crazy that it isn't 4-5'. That ship had sailed before I came on the scene, and Chingchai had warner him too... well, next tank

Growth has been really good, especially in the past month. A colour improvement was the main difference we saw. I will dig through my pics and try to find some before and after with dates, but give me some time. The staghorns are the fastest growing, with montipora & millipora not far behind.
