Been a little while since I updated. New acros seem to be settling in. The Walt Disney and rainbow milli are starting to get some more color and my Vivids rainbow has grown over the sides of the plug. There are a couple of spots that now have green on it! I'll hopefully be starting on my frag tank this week, finally! Also signed up for the secret Santa this year can not wait for the pairings to start, it looked like so much fun last year!!

Man those are some beautiful sticks!

Thank you! I really need to get some lenses for my phone, the rainbow milli is more yellow and pink to the eye.

Ok I don't even know where to start for this update haha. I have been buying and selling frags like crazy over the past couple of weeks. I picked up 6 acros that are brown that I don't know the names to and need some loving, a purple Stylo, 8-9 Ironman mushrooms, 2 rainbow Yumas, a yuma that looks green, a frag of zoas that haven't fully opened yet so don't know what they are and a big chunk of reverse superman monti all for under $100!!! There is 1 SPS that I can't figure out what it is so hopefully I can get a better picture of it tomorrow and maybe someone can help me ID it.
I also woke up on my day off to find my filefish snacking on some of my zoas, to say i was mad would be an understatement. So I quickly caught him and put him in my QT. I sat staring at the tank for a little while trying to think what my next step should be with him. I decided to post him up free on my local Facebook group. I found a local reefer that has been going through a tough time medically and lost a lot of his fish in his FOWLR system while he was in the hospital. So now he has a nice big 75 gallon FOWLR almost all to himself, and the joy that the local reefer gets from him turned my whole day around!
Ok ok no more talking. Now the good part, PICTURES!!!!

Wow! That is a haul! You are on your way to nice coral filled display. Well done with the file fish too. Nothing better than taking a disappointing problem and turning it into a positive for someone else.

I'm excited to see how the acros color up, I do sit here now and wonder where I'm going to put them all

That’s a good problem

Ok these are the 2 that I need help with. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

Just updated my phone and they now have a pro mode for video. Not the best video but thought it was cool because you can see how much flow is on the milli and how fluffy it is!!!

Looks awesome! I read through the first page. It’s crazy that this all started with a $5 frag and a gift card you won. Goes to show how good that marketing is! Thanks for sharing it!

Lazydayz · Oct 31, 2020

Thank you @Bleigh! The marketing is good. I think this community is better though, there are so many beautiful tanks and helpful people that you can now achieve anything. I never thought I'd be able to keep SPS, or even coral for that matter.

So far I haven't had any aggression issues. I'm not sure if it is because I got him smaller then the clowns or if I just got lucky.

The SPS are doing great, the reverse superman monti is colorful and happy. I'm pretty sure the WD has gotten bigger and the Vivids rainbow has color showing on the base. I also cut 2 frags off the ASD Rainbow Milli and 1 off the Blueberry Stylo. They are happy and looking great!
