Ive moved on majority of the clutter within my tank. All the sps pieces besides my stag.. all the zoa frags and most of the other frags on the floor.. my focus has changed pn this reef.. going to keep very selective pieces.. going for stag growth like sps only..

Plan is to add a dallas and blue stag.. aim is to have the 3 pieces grow out in all branchy directions.

Also got a sweet addition.. a nano sized gigantea anemone.. its about 15cm in length..

You have got some premium over there.
Where do you get your corals from?
Is the bottom painted in black, from the external side?

Do be warned about that ritteri, it WILL kill or damage anything it contacts. The only other anemone with a more powerful sting is a carpet anemone. Other than that, your tank is beautiful!

The stuff in there are so so. I wouldnt call premium.. just very selective with coral type and colours to complement each other.

The corals are soruced from various places but essentially they're form queensland.

The base is actually the blacl foam mat underneath which gives that black look @Franklin Dattein

Shes actually not a ritteri anemone but actually a gigantea carpet anemone. I didn't think we had ritteris within our aussie waters..never seen one for sale before

But thanks for the concern bud! Shes got plenty of room to grow out. Ive dedicated that entire right side for the growth of the gig.

Sorry, it looks all the world like a ritteri. Yes, you do have ritteris there, the REALLY cool, hardy green foot ones. I talk to a diver from around the Gold Coast area and he says he's seeing them moving further and further south due to warm waters.
