Very nice. What kind of lighting do you have on the 20 high? And are you upgrading to a 40 breeder?

[steely185]

It's a 150 watt sunpod with a phoenix 14K. The 20H is running a koralia 2 and a 3 with an AC30 (only has chaeto in it). It gets plenty of flow. No skimmer or sump for the tank. It has 7 different SPS corals with 2 more coming this week. Everything is doing great.

I have the tank and stand for the 40 breeder pictured. I plan on loading up on the equipment (15 gallon sump, mag 7, mp20 and probably a 2x150 sunpod) for the 40 breeder in the next month. I hope to move the 20 to the 40 by early August.

I should be adding about 4-6 new corals this week so I'll update some pics later. Space is a premium but frag racks will handle some corals until the move.

[E.intheC]

that looks really nice. I am actually about 98% sure I'm upgrading to a 40 breeder as well. Also.. I'm thinking of temporarily using a 20 High while I try to sell my 30 cube.. It takes up too much space right now, and there's a move coming up.. lol.. we have almost the same plans.

You have quite a nice frag collection

[steely185]

It keeps growing too. Once it grows in things will look really good. I'm anticipating a tank move so not much is being permanently attached to rock for now. Thanks for checking it out.

[Reefer07]

I like....some good looking zoos.

[steely185]

Thanks for the comments. It should be an interesting week since we have a frag meet saturday. I'll have to see what I can add.

[steely185]

Picked up a frag of Tyree sunset montipora and superman montipora today. I should have somewhere in the neighborhood of 6-8 new types of zoas/palys and a mint chocolate montipora frag. Exciting times. Love frag meets.

[steely185]

Green crosettes. They are pretty nice with the purple and green.

[steely185]

Just wanted to post a few new pics.

Keep in mind its point and shoot camera, top down, no pumps on so the camera can focus. Enjoy.

very nice Dan!!!!!

[JMBoehling]

Yep.. Looking very nice.. Keep it up Dan!

[vetdog]

looking good man. everything looks really healthy

[steely185]

Thanks for the comments. Everything has been doing great and growth has taken off recently. Thanks to the tank size there is no dosing of any sort, just weekly water change. I'm just looking forward to moving it to a 40 soon. I should be adding some tricolor acro, a paly colony and some jokers in the next day or so.

I still want to pick up a frag of red planet and ORA green birdsnest soon.

I've been amazed how quickly the Garf Bonsai has grown. I had to glue the frag after it arrived and it has quickly based over the glue. I recieved the frag on the 22nd of July. It had a branch and the main frag glued on opposite ends of plug. They have have met in the middle with the base growth since arrival.
