Just thought I'd share a few shots of my glass box.

Thanks for the kind words everyone. As requested by fishdoc11 here's a full tank shot. I'm not big on doing FTS as I just can't get it to look right with my limited photo skills but hopefully you can get still the idea. I prefer top down shots as it shows the colours better.

Hey, thanks again for all the encouraging remarks.
Ok here's a few more coral pics.



I have high hopes for this wild Aussie Monti since it has started to get some colour

Thank you.
My lighting is comprised of 2 Aqua-Medic fixtures, both 72" in length. One I just got a few weeks ago & is straight T5's, 4x 39 watt Fiji purple actinics.
The other fixture is all MH hqi, 3x 250w 10k's & 2x 150w 20k's.

Thanks, my main display is 130 gal and with the sump, refugium & frag tank plumbed in it's roughly 250 gal of water capacity. My chiller is set for 80F so the average temp is between 78-79 degrees. SG-1.025, alk-8dkh, ca-420, ph-8.1.
Thanks for your interest.

It's OK I guess, if you like really great colors and amazing growth tips. To each his own...
