That's a great looking colony of people water zoas. Those other look really nice too. It's nice to see true colonies and not 5-6 polyps being called a mini colony.

Thank you @tupes that was my first zoa and just counted them, there approx 140 polyps. You are absolutely correct though.

Thank you @bontrager I currently have a maxi jet 600 as return which will soon be upgraded. I am running a AI prime which I am making a video on my schedule this week to share with everyone and also have the aftermarket IM acrylic filtration basket. There a Hydor 425gph inside I believe. Second to smallest of the Hydor line.

Yess!! It's getting a little too much though... don't want to cut back also lol... maybe put some non photosynthetic corals underneath

bontrager · Nov 20, 2017

Very nice. Can you tell us a little about the quantity and "type" of "live rock" that you have used?

Very nice! Can you tell us about the "type" and quantity of live rock in your IM 10.

Some non photos would be sweet. I got this frag holder but there’s other types too on amazon, it

looks sweet and was able to pop a frag right in!

This little guy I also got recently, I knew it was a mushroom but didn't know what kind since it was honestly about 1/4 inch big and it's grown to be a pretty awesome Ultra Rhodactis Mushroom!! Can't wait until it's bigger!!

Love that pic!! The aquascaping is perfect! What is your maintence like for the tank? Water changes, do you dose, etc.

Right now I solely rely on water changes. I'm using Tropic marin bio actif and love it!! But I've added a numerous amount of frags to the tank which I will show soon and a my senior corals are huge so I'm shopping for a skimmer. I love my tank it is a challenge on a day to day basis and I learn a lot on how to keep the right parameters to make everyone happy! Thank you for your comment.... also I just won the tunze osmolator ATO from our contest so I will also be doing an unboxing and instalation video on my YouTube channel coming soon! I also keep daily posts on my instagram

Nice looking tank? How is your growth with the AI prime? I have the same tank with a Kessil A80 on it and I am not seeing much growth with it. I am thinking of swapping it for an AI Prime HD.

I've had my tank for almost 2 yrs now and some of my original corals I've taken out or traded except for my birds nest and cap. I would say that growth isn't bad with the prime knowing that they were only 1 inch frags when purchased
