Awsome zoos, I like your halimeda, it gives a cool green color that most reefs don't have.
Thanks...the best part of the halimeda is the fact that it was a hitch hiker and i didnt have to pay for it...

i bought them only having 3 polyps...i had awesome growth in the first month with 3 new polyps growing...but since then there has been no new growth...i have had them for about 3 months now...so doubling the polyps in 3 months isnt bad i guess...
the baby polyps are getting bigger but there has been no new polyps grown in 2 months...

filtration? i have a 55 thats about 6 months old hope mine looks like that someday nice tank

Thank you for the nice comments...this tank has taken my a long time to get it to a point where i would post pics on the internet...i have posted pics before but i am proud to post them now...this tank has cost a lot of money and time...so it is great to hear comments like that...
i have it all oldschool for filtration on this tank...no sump, no skimmer...i just have 85lbs of live rock and a simple wal-mart HOB filter to run carbon...the secret it all in the water changes...

Great tank. Any issues with the galaxia? How about a close up pic of the galaxia?
Thanks!
i had a slight issue with it and my acan but i moved the acan and i havent had any issues since then...it is only a 3"X3" piece of galaxia so the sweepers are only about 4" long...the sting is very powerful on the galaxia...i will get a pic later on tonight and post it...
