Great looking tank...
thanks, Mark. Maybe I'll take a FTS (full tank shot) tonight of the kitchen side.
I fragged the heck out of the living room side this past week for an upcoming URS "garage sale" event and it looks like a cyclone destroyed my corals HOWEVER fragging does have it's advantages: I've glued many many coral frags all around my aquarium and it should look truly incredible about 10 months from now.

What you don't see is coralline covered glass, Jonathan. I hope you are taking notes.

Gary, it looks great as usual, even with you harvesting corals recently. I can't believe it has almost been a year since I saw it in person.

Time is flying, eh? Marc, you're right- I purchased one of those blade attachments for magnets and I was finally able to easily remove some nasty coralline a few weeks ago. That stuff had burned out the pads on my magnets- I should have gotten the attachment sooner. Now I have to get new pads. Only until it was too late did I realize there was a slight amount of green fuzz on the panes of glass, but I went ahead with this last photo anyways.

Hi, Chris. Thanks for the kind words.
Reducing nitrates from 20ppm is advisable but also have your friend check his levels of Mg (magnesium) calcium and alkalinity. Also make sure that no fish are nipping LPS- I had to re-arrange some LPS when I introduced my Emperor.
Thanks for getting back to me. I'll pass on your advise, which I hope will help him out.

Good on ya mate

Chris
