Tank report...Things are all doing very well. knock on wood. Some pictures of new and old. I have been going a bit over board with adding corals to my tank. I need to do some serious trimming, but I guess it's always a good thing to be saying that.


This a piece I got off Brad, believe it or not the base is assuredly green but the rest is red.



Some kind of favia from chowder.



ponape birdsnest is gotta be the most nicest birdsnest of them all.





Strawberry short cake or what I am lead to believe, looks more like a strawberry lime cake.

I have been going a bit over board with my reef purchases and the worst part is we are still in summer....

Tank has been running fairly stable except for alkalinity consumption. I have been supplementing with RX6 duo calcium reactor, large kalk reactor plus manually dosing and still I have problem keeping up with it.



I have recently traded in a few large volley ball size sps colonies to lfs hoping that will curb the up take but I am sure some thing else is gonna grow in place of those colonies, or new arrivals like this one.

Rich, your tank is gorgeous and looking better everyday! I don't think it is the corals in display tank that is running your Alk... I think it is your frag tank that is doing it
