Its looking better and better evey day. Has most of its pink back and the green is just starting to show itself again. It was in really rough shape for a while.

I will see if I can get some good shots of the stags. They are getting huge and look really cool. One day I will figure out how to get a good FTS but with the current equipment I have and the small room it makes it tough as I can't get far enough back with the tripod. Some of the progression in only a year is crazy.

Think I have everything placed pretty well now so I can let things grow out for a while. I learned my lesson well about placement of frags. For example: Don't ever place a frag in the front of your tank if you want to see anything behind it.

Picked up a nice sky blue humilis from Karson after the swap to add to the collection. If I can figure out what is picking on my chalices in the display tank, I will be all set. That's right, I am coming for you Poletti :)

Glad it wasn't just me that had problems photographing that godzilla. Thanks for taking some much better pics of my tank Eric.

Wow Eric seeing your new pics and putting it side by side with the one you took in mid July last year really shows the difference. Hard to appreciate the growth as much when you see it every day.
