Thanks man , we get asked that a lot but it doesn't at all I even asked guest to tell me if it did as I figured I slowly got use to it lol
But the verdict is it doesn't

One major design flaw on my part though , corals at waters surface look cool but only until your return pump dies while your at work xmas eve , corals were in the air all day we didn't lose anything really but did get me to think about getting the controller hooked up to it.

Yea but in that really big fish tank the tide goes in and out and corals are subjected to air and that big bright light they all survive

And I thought my tank was overcrowded. Based on today's pics, I can double my corals and still be okay. Good to know.

Looks totally awesome, btw.

Thanks Anthony

We are trying to group corals based on knowing how they act and grow , for example the scoly and lobos only have feeders on the large polyp and are small at less than an inch , it would take a few years for these pieces to grow into each other and the feeders currently only have access to the bottom or skeleton of the piece above it .

I worry about the bubble as it almost touches the scoly but I only had the bubble fight with it the first day it was in , since then it doesn't see it as a threat most likely because of the angle and flow direction , this will likely change as the bubble grows large and fast though so at any given time the scoly can come off its glue and small tower.

We're going to fill in the gaps tonight with zoanthids and then we want to finish off the stand skirting And doser shelf in the next couple of weeks .

Got some good news last night as I noticed that the pink lemonade acro has covered its base and colors are almost back , this is the first real signs of improvement since dosing too much Alk thinking it was vinegar so I may add back more sps , right now it's only a couple acros and a montipora setosa in there the rest are patiently waiting and healing in the frag tank lol

Also finally got confirmation that our Pom Pom crab is still alive and doing well found it's cave last night Under a chalice and until now she's remained pretty elusive lol even snapped a blurry pic lol

Happy new years everyone!!!


Denny and Ruth
