    Thanks.. the Naso wanted a close up and hogged the camera. Last night we got the GFO online and sucked out the cyano, so it is looking really really good today.

    It is a dry heat, yeah right !
    Really nice tank, the fish are exceptional. The back wall is so clean, you must be dedicated. You have so much room to place corals on the scape. All the corals look really happy and healthy. Is that the pocillopora frag from your last system? Nice color to it.

    Coralline, that is the Stylopora from my old tank. Here it is from there after it was hacked on a bit.

    truthfully , teh back wall isnt that clean. i do have some GHA that I am fighting a bit with but it is all pretty much out of sight. I do occasionally take the magfloat and clean the back wall in teh middle. Stay tuned. im going to do some growth shots.
