simply amazing growth, jonathon!!! how do you keep them from encrusting over each other? or do they sting each other creating natural boundaries?

 

[Jbanks]

Thanks Doug! I try my best to group like species together and frag back where I have too. So far, so good!

Looking good bro. That Blue tort in the 2nd to last pic wouldn't happen to be one you got as a frag from me a while ago would it?

Hey Chris! Thanks Man! You keep the bar High around this place! LOL... That Cali Tort grew from a Frag given to me by my buddy Frank ("tatoofr" from RC in Oceanside) shortly after I started my tank in 2009. It was from the bottom of his beautiful colony where there was no light and it had NO color. Looking at his colony, I knew it would turn out really nice one day. No sure where he got it from though..... hmmm.

Thanks Bro! I picked that piece up at Manhattan Aquariums. It was sold to me as an A. caroliniana, which I had been looking for for some time.

Welcome aboard and Thanks!!!

sometimes I wish they could grow a bit faster.. My local yearly true frag swap helps a lot. Two Sundays ago before these pics were taken, I pulled about 30 frags out of the tank for the swap.

Haha, nice.. Now all you have to do is prune frags and enjoys the tank.. Dont we all wish to be able to do that some day.. Its like interest, sell frags money go back to the tank for all the bills we pay and hopefully enough to get a frags here and there.

 

[Jbanks]

supporting the habbit. LOL! That would be really nice... Haven't seen those days yet! LOL..

Insanity Jon!!!! The corals have grown out beautifully. Im just curious, is your lighting this blue in person, or do you not have the white balance set correctly?

 

[Jbanks]

DUDE!!!!! WHat's up Rich! Hope all is well man.. Thanks Bro.. I actually have a piece from your teal stag colony that you sold to Harry Lopez.. My Lighting is pretty blue, but when they're all on it has a 12-14K look to it.. the pictures are very accurate..

Bro, So when are your coming back in to the fold???

 

[jackson6745]

I won't be back for a while. Too many things going on to care for a tank again. I still lurk through all the reef websites though. Keep up the good work! I look forward to your next update batch of pics.
