Finally got around to taking some photos of this tank. It's now been set up for over a year, a few weeks ago I moved the entire set up into a slightly larger tank as I wanted a clear back ground. The new tank is around 7 gallons now. I am going to start a new thread soon in the members section as it's no longer a pico tank. I got myself a new pair of black ice clowns on the weekend while I was on holiday, they're beautiful and they look fantastic. They won't be in this tank long term. I have a new tank I am currently planning to set up. I want to remove a lot of the smaller frags from this tank and either let a few of the smaller frags grow into smaller colonies or get a few really nice pieces. I'd prefer to have a smaller number of larger higher quality corals.

You should just save the pics to your computer and then use the Upload File(s) button near the text box. Alternatively you can put the following - replace ( ) with [ ]

Thanks Leo, I just tried that but it says "broken external link"
I uploaded this one photo but it says all of the others are to large to upload so I'm not sure how to go about it.

There is a little arrow button with various options for ways to post the photos on various social things. Nothing too useful. It might just be easier to upload the original photos from the file they are in or from your phone by the "upload file" button in the post box. Then you don't need to link to stuff.

Looks fantastic! Not too crowded, just right. Love the pic of the cowry - they are beautiful. Does it eat any of your LPS?

And what is the drink bottle in the back used for? Are you propagating something?

Thanks very much guys!
I've added a few new corals over the past week. I'm going to set up a frag tank soon to move the smaller frags to and let them grow out. I want to have a smaller number of larger colonies in here.
I really want to get a nice chalice, does anyone know where I could find a good quality chalice?

Thanks Agent M, I love my cowrie, they have beautiful shells. It hasn't touched any of my corals, I believe money cowries are reef safe. The worst it does is knock a few corals off.

I did have a mini maxi in there that I was recovering, it had just started to colour up again and it was doing very well. It crawled into my wave maker a few days ago though and it didn't make it.
