Those stags look great Mindy! I hope I can get mine into a similar state down the road

Thank you, it looks like it is on the mend now. I did forget to mention that I add 10 Mexican Turbo snails in May, and about a month ago I removed all my small snails (Cerith, Astraea, Ring Cowries) and added 8 Scarlet Hermits. The hermits won't bother the Turbos, but they will eat smaller snails. I think I'm going to add another 8 Scarlet Hermits. However, I was impressed that the Tang that died was completely cleaned up when I got from MACNA, so the clean up crew is efficient indeed!

Thanks Brett. How are you trying to improve color?

No. The lights are still 2x250w SE Phoenix and 2x54w KZ Super Blue.

Thanks Kien! It is a long road when it is so far gone.
