just curious what size tank is it and how much flow do you have.
I dont wanna have a full tank of SPS I just have about 4 smaller colonies now and probably wont get to many more. nothing like you got.

That is way over crowded. Fortunately for you, I run a non-profit coral shelter and currently have open slots that can help with your situation.
Looks great as usual

oh ok..right now I got about a 25x turnover on my 75..I am going to probably get it to around 30x or so. I guess that should be good.
LOL its really funny seeing how good your tank is doing. Makes me laugh even more from that idiot at the store telling me I need like 10,000pgh or a 100x turnover in my 75

First off, luv the tank. Nice job. But I have to ask why you didn't put in a Monticap? I think it's so cool to see acros growing through a monticap. my LFS has one, looks like a spike through a dinner plate... I'm not sure about the survivability in the long term, but it wasn't intentional on their part. The tank just started growing acros and montis all over and everywhere when they changed the lights and added a new auto suppliment solution. It's gotten so out of control the owner is taking the upstarts out and selling them as frags...

thanks bigarn i can always count on u for some nice comments!
zman1 luckily ur non-profit lol just send me ur address and the info ill send some corals ur way

05xrunner..... one thing u will learn is there are many different ways of doing things and everyone will say there way is better lol.... IMO if u get ur flow to be aroud 30x's then ur fine..... 100x's is pretty insane can be done but ud have to be barebottom all the way!
salth20addict... thanks thats very kind of u i always enjoy snappin some pics as the tank progresses i started out not knowing a thing 3 years ago with my old tank and this is what i have today
integral9... i have one monti cap its the orange one in the lower part of the second pic.... i had issues with my salt back about 5 months ago and montis would not live for a thing..... im not starting to get some more montis i wanna get a purple and a green rimmed purple one next.... then some nice encrusting montis .... i agree those huge montis swirling around look awesome!
