Here is a pic I took tonight. Has been going since Aug 06. Getting really, really crowded in there. And ricordias coming into the LRS this week too.

thanks. Lighting might be overkill. I am using a 250wt Icecap pendant with 14k bulb, but a dimmable ballast so the tank starts at a light level of about 70 wts, increases up to 250 for jsut an hour or so and makes it way back down before lights go out. Corals are really coloring up nicely. Seem to like it.

Thanks peef. Just wish the sps did a little better. Their colors went brown when I got them but are starting to come back, a little. One acro I noticed is turning blue, one milli is going green, the birdsnest toward pink and andother acro purple, but all in all they just don't seem to do as well as other tanks I have seen. I just don't seem to have the thumb for sps. I wonder if it could be because of the heavy corallimorpharian load in such a small tank.
They are spreading aver the superglue and onto the LR, but seems to be slow. I know the tank is packed, but I have a 10gl fuge packed with chaeto and no unwanted algae problems.

Thanks all. I can't beieve I was able to cram 4 more rainbow FL ricordias into it yesterday. Besides a few hot zoanthids I would eventually like to make this a full blown ricordia tank. being a 14gl it shouldn't be too difficult.

That would be great. I have had a time trying to get rid of an old water heater and a pile of scrap wood left over from Hurricane Ivan. I also have a white 2 door Chevy Cavalier...wait, I bet you mean corals, right? Sorry, thought I had all that junk out of here.
I probably will be letting most of my zoanthids go at a reasonable price soon, just not yet though. I have some Mohawks and skittles on their way and after they arrive I will know exactly what I will be wanting to keep.
