    The angles a little different but nothing I can do about that. This one never was popped off the plug and hasn't completely overgrown it so it gets bumped around a bit.

    Aww so it'd be poor taste if I post pics of the red caps? LOL JJ Well not joking about the caps. They've completey covered the plug and tripled in size in 2 months. Over the last 2 weeks I've watched the biggest chip form what's going to be a very nice dish shaped plate.

    Thank you. I'm extremely anal about the big 3 and water quality. Not to mention keeping the splash guard on my lights crystal clear. I really don't know what I'm doing though because everything from softs to sps is growing very well. That LPS behind the digi was a four mouthed frag 5 months ago, it has 15 now and the Duncan I just added last month already has grown 3 new mouths I can see, don't know what's growing on the back side of it.

    LOL. No magic ;D. I just do what I said above plus I don't mess around inside the tank unless it's absolutely necessary, like if a pump stops or some emergency like that. I watch the currents when I feed and note flow then research the needs of corals I want before putting them in. If they aren't happy with the spot I pick it may be a month before I'll move them unless they start to show signs of deteriorating.
