Default Operation 'Eradication' complete

So needless to say I've been a bit behind on my up-keep, been keeping up with regular water changes, but have let the garden get a little out of hand. So decided today was the day to deal with the Anthelia and grape Culpera. below are the before and after shots, sorry for the cr*ppy quality.

Before


after



Re-scaped as well, need to grab some more epoxy, wanted to get a little more height for my SPS as well as pull the rock away from the glass. Corals are a little PO'd at the moment, but looks like everything survived. Have ended up with quite a few frags (will be posting them).

Found my new favorite tool, a carbide bristle brush, makes quick work of scrubbing rock

Good job so far. Continue to keep an eye out for the anthelia and caulerpa... they have a way of coming back from the dead.
