thats the comboray running :) the other one is just used for actinic lighting haha. im looking at the orphek atlantik LED lights for my new tank project (the Mantra SS will only be temporary till i get the altantik lights) if i cant source those lights, as it seems i cant find any available in Aus, then i am considering the illumagic blaze. your thoughts @chimaera
Tank size reminder?

from what ive read, the orphek atlantiks are a great little unit! strong enough to grow anything! seriously considering buying :)

thanks guys! i'm going to be a little more careful with coral selection with my new tank set up :) so some pieces in there may be up for grabs when it comes time to get the new tank stocked. not sure if i want that torch for instance in my future tank.

finally home! tank is a little dirty on the glass but otherwise ok. some of the sps corals seem to have bleached a little while i was away but they're still growing. my zoas have grown also but are now extending upwards like mushrooms unlike what they were before. any idea as to why?
i also found what seems to be a little bubble tip anemone growing on one of the rocks :) ill take a picture of it soon so you guys can verify for me.
cheers
