    Is that a pavona up on the very top? If you ever want to make a trade I have a few mushrooms/rhodactis and palys/zoas that I dont see in your tank. I would love a little piece of the fiji leather and maybe the pavona? and/or some different zoas.

    Not too many LPS dominated tanks around these days. Can't wait to see your tank grow out some more...

    Nice pics!

    They are working really well actually, definitely worth the $25. It definitely helps mask the white/yellowish hue from the bulb and leaves a nice crisp color. And the corals, especially green really pop.

    They light up the entire nano, so approximately 14" x 14". I don't have them running now since the tank is in a temporary location, but I believe they were like 8-10" above the water. I'll get a measurement next week.

    With the way my rocks are arranged there are some areas not heavily hit by the MH, in these areas the blue is VERY apparent and creates a cool contrast. Once I get the tank settled in its new home next week I'll take a pic with and without the LED on, and one with just the LEDS.

    The yellow coral in the upper right? That's another yellow fiji leather. Slightly different color than the other one, cant decide which one I like more. Always looking to trade, especially for some new mushrooms. The fiji's are growing really well and I am going to need to frag it soon, so I'll let you know when I have some frags ready.

    Thanks! I am really busy with classes so I wanted a relatively easy to maintain tank (i.e missing a water change wont result in a disaster), but something that still looked interesting. I'll try to post a new pic every week or so to track the growth.

    Thanks. Now I look I guess it is another leather. Looked brown to me though. It is blocking the powerhead in one of the shots.

    I have a couple purple bullseye mushrooms and green tonga shrooms that I can think of right now. Maybe more if they split soon enough, and some zoas or palys that are doing well. Keep me in mind when you do frag it

    Yup, made a few changes since the last pics though. Gave away a bunch of frags that were crowding the tank to allow some things to grow and added a few other pieces. Thinking about taking a few pieces from this tank to add to my nano contest tank too. I'll try to get some updated pics up later this week!
