Ahhh. Been busy y'all. It's coming down to the last few weeks to prepare for my baby girl to get here. Been running around cleaning and organizing and fixing up the cars and installing stuff. Figuring out this new video camera. Lol.
There is good news and bad news. The bad news is that the Alabama grape monti is showing signs of rtn now. The good news is that the palawanensis and the pink birdsnest are starting to show signs of growth. I guess you can't keep them all, especially in such a small tank.

When is the wife due? The whole taxidermy thing may come in handy in 15 years or so!

Pink birdsnest, pretty much right after I first got it. Since then, the tips have actually grown to points now.

Montipora palawanensis - ... all of these pics that I am posting are semi-old. Some of them are already showing signs of new growth.

Valentine Damicornis. This coral is still doing well. It's actually turning pink on the tips under my new bulbs. no noticeable growth though.

Orange montipora. Yeah, the pics don't really give the correct colors at all. It's actually glowing orange. lol It actually has a significant amount of new growth and is filling in some of the dead spots.

Haha. Your already trying to spoil her huh? We'll see how it goes! I hope she likes fish! Lol
Don't worry about the loving fish thing...kids are naturally glued to fish tanks when they see one, the mystery of what they are/what is inside them attracts them from birth.

My birdsnest is growing well. The broken tips from shipping have all healed and formed new peaks. The side of the frag has started to grow 11 new branches and I count six new splits at the tips of the grown out tips.

The montipora is growing really well. I'm keeping my alkalinity high. And it's even growing well underneath the plates. I guess the barebottom tank is lightin it up underneath really well too. There's only a couple of spots that aren't filled in yet. Time though will heal all wounds.
And just for fun
