    Update time!
    Here are pics of the Baboon Butts ( forground) and the safecrackers (background)

    I have mounted the plugs on their side, attached to rubble rock or dead coral. Hopefully encouraging space for future growth.

    My polyp count for the two frags is, Baboon Butts- 16 and Safecrackers - 16

    The third pic has the Aussie Invaders. they are the squashed looking plug in the middle.
    Polyp count for the Aussie Invaders is--12

    It looks like I need to go back and get a pic of the Almond Joys. There are 4 polyps of those.

    Things I have done to the tank are gone to one circulation pump. MP60, added some Kent Tech M, and mixed a little brew of Kent marine buffer and some calcium chloride. Also put a grate in the sump to hold some chaeto I'm hopimg to grow, with a small no light on at reverse schedule. Bobbie got me an awesome Desjardini tang from Sea Dwellers in Angola!
    There is also an emerald crab, and i'm starting some GFO in an aqauclear 500.

    I have no fear of losing my life - if I have to save a koala or a crocodile or a kangaroo or a snake, mate, I will save it.

    Update time again! I switched everything to the other side of the tank. Somehow the bulb got splashed and the glass on the bulb broke! The lamp still was burning, but it seemed unsafe, so I shut that ballast off.
    I did do a 20 gallon waterchange also.

    On to the good stuff. Polyp count!
    Aussie invaders 29

    Baboon Butts 22

    Dexters 29

    Almond joys 11

    Egg Drops 50

    Safe Crackers 23

    BTW counting the egg drops is a real PITA!
