Happy 2.5 anniversary! I'm at 2.5 years as well and mine is 150g too. They're like twins separated at birth!

Ironically (or maybe not), I've had people locally refer to me as "Dez" by accident. Ya, that is as creepy as it sounds..

You both do look some what a like. I never met Dez before but saw his image on his journal. If you bought a mini cooper, then you'd be twins.

When you guys are taking your long walks on the beach I can barely tell you apart it's crazy.

Reef is at 3 1/2 years but only cause we moved, my bubble coral is in its 4th tank and is 24 years old this year, just about lost it last year when a hitch hiker crab decided it tasted good.

Was the very first coral I ever bought ( along with an elegance, but I lost that one about 10 years ago) barring something bad happening to the tank I will have this forever, or at least part of it as there is little baby bubbles forming on the sections that were damaged by the crab.

According to a recent poll that coral is older than 1/3 of Canreefers.

And has sweepers to match. This coral has the longest sweepers I've ever seen. It can sting 5 to 6 feet away, if it takes a disliking to another coral.
