Thanks.
I agree it is too crowded now. I was planning on moving some corals to my prop tank but haven't had to the time yet. 
The finger coral along the top is now eight years old and is in five or more parts. It grew from a very tiny three inch tall coral with about five little fingers on it.

One 6/1/06 I changed out the Euroreef skimmer for my old Precision Marine bullet skimmer. The Euroreef just wasn't cutting it. After a few weeks to a month, I only had a few ounces of skimmate from it. It also seems that my Ozone unit is working better with the PM bullet than it was with the Euroreef.
