FarmerTy's 215-gallon SPS Tank

Tims Corals are the best

Keep that orange crush High for the orange to come out in the tips

The orange crush is a coral I wouldn’t have picked but am glad I have

I was pretty happy with the pack. Thanks for the tip on the orange crush. I'm going to roast it! How high is high Justin? Would 400-500 par suffice?

I have it in 400 with a ton of random flow and the orange showed up

its right above the Atlantic blue tang

Crack-a-lackin man!!! Love the new additions and the frag tank is going to be so much fun!

Glad all those gems arrived well for you my friend. It was a pleasure getting to know you better over the past month here on R2R. Your photography skills are amazing. I appreciate the camera & lens recommendations as well.

First off, got this amazing frag pack from Tim (AV99). @aquavista99

Notable ones that have my eye right now are the diabolic Pac man

And RMF Unicorns mane

And super excited to get an old classic... Aquascene icefire echinata.

I can't wait until they all adjust to the system and color up even more from the shipping/fragging. Chunky frags and a pleasure to deal with... I was extremely pleased with my order and will always keep my shopping to reef2reef sellers. I've had the best experience with them versus Facebook sellers in general.

Full list of frags:
RMF Diablo Mille
Diabolic Pacman
AV99 Rogue Envy
RMF's Unicorn Mane
AV99 Orange Crush
Jared's Red Matrix
Aquascene Icefire
AV99 Sunset Envy

Second, I've been busy with adding another frag tank! I got another low boy tank and will be allocating half of it to my growing high end BTA collection. I feel bad keeping them in a cramped box so I'm setting them free in half of the new frag tank.

Are you torturing those acros by sticking them with the nems? Seems like a harsh punishment.

I thought the same, lol. They were growing to fast for Ty so he put them in there to slow them down a bit.

I don't forgive easily... They'll do their time in the box and with good behavior, I'll let them back out again. It'll teach them not to sting their neighbors.

Hence the 2nd frag tank. I need some more frag space!

Green corals are fed to the anemones.

I'm glad I wasn't born green in your tank Bubba!

Yikes, Bubba scares his corals into being any other color than green. That is how he gets those amazing colors.

Your frags u got look sweet! That ice fire enchitas has awesome growth patterns, one of my all time favs that I’ve also lost.

Wow! What a great break! I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday break as well. Gave me a chance to get away from the tank for a bit and clear my mind and come back and attack it with a full head of steam.

Lucky to have him locally!

I'm excited about the aquascene version of the ice fire... Similar to the tyree's but a bit more colorful, at least online through pictures I've seen. They are sensitive so I'm always worried about it making it.

Here's some of his other stuff I didn't post yet. I can't wait until they color up in my system after shipping.
