Haha I missed this while posting. I didn't notice the melanarus wrasse doing that until later I had a good laugh. My remaining chromis swims the tank in massive circles all day like a moron. If I clean the glass he swims right by the magnet... bumps into my hand if it's in his way too?!

Wow...
I have been following your build since November, and have read your whole thread. WOW.
Great job with your basement. Love what you did with, well, everything. I couldn't post comments about your progress 'cause I wasn't there. I saw your jack-posts go up for sale so I knew you had torn down your tank upstairs. Hope the missus is happy and you are ready, or almost ready, for

Your build is STELLAR.
I hope you keep it for a long time.
I am coming from FW and have been researching SW for many months...too bad for most of us that we can't build something as beautiful as yours.

BTW, I love your recent pics
I especially love the lighting of shots 4 and 15
Again...WOW

Woah, I haven't looked at this for a short while and look at that! Everthing is in and even have the SPS going. Nice build! Welcome to the "lots of open space and less live rock" club. I prefer that look as well

You have a lot of frags going there, when those things get big you're going to need to upgrade again! or give them to me :P

keep up the awesome build

thanks guys =)

Yeah I'm going to have to remove some frags I'm sure. Things are more spaced than the 97 but I really like large colonies...

I'm not doing too well with removal btw. I removed 3 corals from this rock. Totally scoured, scraped and cut as best I could. All 3 are well on their way back! Whatever happened to SPS being touchy?

Brett I freaking LOVE this tank! You're set for canreef TOTM once you get some growth! The clean shaven look is nice but I'm sure you will be coated in coraline in no time!

*Cough* If there's ever going to be another TOTM *Cough*.

My saltynuts acro is now almost a mini colony again. It was only a few months ago that I sold the giant colony snapping it clean from the rock, However the little bits of encrustation has sprouted a ton of growth tips. Wait until you have to remove giant colonies out of necessity. Looks great Brett. I think that was my favourite stage of my tank - when everything was just growing out from frags/mini colonies. Everything changes so fast at that stage. I hate the pruning/coral fighting stage - it never ends, unless you have a major crash I guess.
