Amazing tank Marvin. What did you use to hold up your frag rack? Magnet, suction, or something else?

Well, you've done a great job. I know at least one of my friends that is a big fan of your zoas.

I've actually stopped collecting zoas and have been concentrating on growing them as well.

I've got a nice mixed tank of zoas and SPS now.
One of my favorite corals as of late:

I'm sticking to my less than 40 zoas morphs personal limit.. LoLz..

Less then 40, heh.
Man, mgny is on the same kick himself! I actually promised him a piece of this coral for his tank. You want a piece? It really turns a nice pink, yellow, green when it grows bigger. That is just a small frag.

Take a look in this picture, you can see a larger piece to the left of the blue millie. This piece has more of the characteristic colors of this coral.
