Thanks Jimmy, my patients can't believe all the coral are alive. Most say they thought it was plastic and fake. Lol

Last I checked it my phosphates were .06 with the hanna meter. My nitrates were about 20.
Plastic...haha...that reminds me of a funny story maybe I'll tell you in person one day. So, is .06 your target range? I'm going to have to try to stop by to check out your setup and practice when I'm up that way visiting the in-laws. From the pics you posted, your office looks as impressive as your tank.

I was trying to raise my phosphates to somewhere around that range. I'm trying to dial things in with my feedings. Let me know if you'd like to stop by. I don't have a big office but I made really good use of the space. I have 5 ops in 1250 sq feet.

Real nice @iani. That negative scape looks really cool. Is that a white tail bristle tooth tang I see?

By the way, how do you keep that left side rock work from toppling over?

Thanks, yes it is a white tail bristletooth tang. I have three tangs in the tank. Besides that tang I have a yellow and a gem.

The rock has a big base. Its really stable how I built it. See the post here. https://www.bareefers.org/forum/threads/red-sea-reefer-peninsula-650.27562/post-405335

Tank is filling in nicely. Interesting that your clowns hasn't hosted the frogspawn yet. You should post some side-by-side growth pics of some of those sps...

Pretty decent for ~1 month BC Aquatic-man table.

That is good. Eric, since you are so good at it you can put together some more comparisons.

Oregon tort slow as ever, but it's encrusting from the looks of things.

Some of these were obviously taken at different angles/perspectives, but the growth/encrustation is noticeable.

Thanks Eric, some of these pieces to me have only recently really taken off. I imagine in a month it will look much different.
