    image.jpg this is not a build thread, just showing off the new tank/aquascape. Took me a a total of 10 hours or so to get all this done. Now I just need to get the rest of the frags off the sandbed...

    Thank you, I'm a big fan of tonga branch rock.

    That looks awesome. This is a new tank in addition to your larger tank? I can't even imagine managing multiple tanks! What frags are you putting in there?

    Thank you, this is my upgrade, I went from a 34g cube to this 50g breeder with 20L sump.

    It's all Acro frags, with a couple mini colonies, and some miscellaneous stuff, gorgonian, acans, montis etc. I plan to glue many of the frags to the branch rock and see what happens.

    It is a dry heat, yeah right !
    It's going to be really awesome once it grows in. You certainly have great placement for sps, kind of the point right.

    Looking good man. I agree, once your corals start filling in its gonna look even better. Nice job.
