Will have to take a pic of that kenya tree frag tonight, it's starting to put on some size, although it did take a bit of a hit when I crashed this tank.

Cheers all, I actually lost all my SPS frags when I crashed this tank. Lost all my lps too aswell as my clowns. I have new sps frags in there now which are showing some decent growth

As for coralline it took a while to take off but as soon as I started running rowaphos and got the phosphate down to 0.0 on the hanna it started taking over. I have to scrape clean my tunze every fortnight as it gets clogged up so bad wit corralline growth

Also went and picked up a tunze 7096 I bought off ebay for my 4ft, turned out to be at reef direct which is a local coral seller. Couldn't help myself and grabbed a couple more sps frags while I was there.



And a tiny green monti



Couple extra shots while I had the camera out.

Fts pretty much just using it to grow frags out at the moment


And my clam which survived 2 days at 13degrees

Mate randomly came by last night with more frags he wanted to offload to make room to cut more. This will end up in the sump of the 4ft when i shut this down and hopefully grow out to end up in the DT one day.

Really shitty phone pics

I found this fts on my misses camera. Must be from a couple days before the little crash. Looks a bit different to now. You can see how much my clam and huge fluffy has grown

Looks great! Was just talking to the missus about a flame hawk for her tank ... how do you find it?

Flame hawk is an awesome little fish. I got warned that it would eat my shrimp but he never even took a second look at them. They perch themselves on rock's and watch you on the outside

Have got a couple new pieces over the past month.





And if you look closely there are a few brown sticks in there which are slowly starting to color up. They came from a mate's jam packed sps tank which has no more room under lights anymore so he gave them to me to see if I could color up. Which I'm pretty happy with at the moment
