    Is your green pocillipora really a Stylophora (cats paw)? Looking good!

    It does look pretty similar to the stylophora. It's a pocillopora damicornis though. nice freebie from rich. lol, i feel spoiled this week, especially with the frags i got from you too Hopefully they do well, just got my new lights this weekend. What kind of birdsnest did u show me in your frag tank? the shape looks a lot different from the one i have in the first pic. Would still like to def buy a frag of that from you.

    I love the new lights, such a big difference. It's a Nova Extreme Pro 6 bulb T5 setup. Lol, didn't realize how dull my pcs were till i hooked up the new ones!

    Can't wait to get some more frags love the sour apple! Gonna wait a few weeks to see how these new ones do. Plus, I think Shane would crap if I bought anything else this week, lol. I can't seem to help myself though! He really liked your tanks btw. I think he liked all the different colors you had goin on. Ours looks pretty dull at the moment. Can't wait till things start to grow out a little.

    the corals look great! if that fixture is new with the stock current brand bulbs you will want to change them out in 6-8 months. when you do i have a great bulb combo for you that will make the lighting even better!

    Yea it does have the stock bulbs. Def want to do a different combo later on though. The se stock bulbs have more of a whitish tint. I like the more bluish purple look.

    are they 54 watt bulbs? cant remember what size your tank was. i do have a uv 75/25 you could swap that for a 10k and it might give you what you are looking for. its brand new never used i bought it for half price from a guy who left the hobby. so 10 bucks and its yours i will never use it.
