All of the pictures before this discription are from the tank setup through to present day. I have lost two or 3 pocillaporas which for some unknown reasoin i cannot keep or grow out.
The tank has had a few problems such as random bleaching of corals , and i tore down the tank to get rid of a flame that had a sweet tooth for my digitata's. On the other side of the coin all corals have shown steady progress.
I will post pics shortly of their arrivals and their present day conditions to show growth over the following months...
As far as fish i currently have 1 fire fish (had 2) 1 YELLOW TANG 3 anthias (lost 1) 3 bar gobies (lost 1) 1 maroon clown 1 3 stripe dam 1 pajama card. 1 lawn mower blenny.

lol wow been a while since ive seen this lol will Ill say that a good number of the corals are no longer with us... but just the same a good number are ! have added a good amount of pieces since. so i will go through my list and up date.
10/17/09
started dosing b-ionic 2 part, really hoping to see a coraline explosion !, have notice a pick up in my coraline algae growth. Also droped in a mercury therm. today. replaced the 150 MH in october, decided to go with a 14k bulb over the usual 10k, well the bulbs fat tony sent in fixture were 20k but xtremely white.
Also switched out the T5 bulbs as well.
Added a scripps and a sixline.
