Aww <3 - Hi Cody.

I've had both those colonies for 5+years. They play nice - I've fragged them so much and they grow around each other, over each other but they don't kill each other - it's cute.
RAP is around the corner a little birdie told me - you can fill 'er up soon enough!!!

Super cute! I like the strong primary color mix of the reds and yellow.

So this is Katropora when it was at it's best - hoping to get it back to the glory it was.

Beautiful tank! Can't wait to start stocking mine. I love the Palys in the back corner. How do you keep them from spreading onto the LR next to it?

(BTW, I gave the Loch Ness Monster tree fiddy! He was a nice boy.)

Ha!!!
Thanks a lot. The palys have been with me for ages - I want to say probably since 2012 or 13. They were initially very slow to grow - the one polyp took about 4-5 months to sprout a baby. I have fragged the colony a few times but it has totally run out of room on the rock it is encrusted on. I move it around some so it doesn't really get a chance to attach to anything and spread. I am considering removing it from that spot and will have to find a different place for it or give it away.

I love it very much but I also like my corals to fit in my plan for the scape somewhat.

Back from MACNA. And a good time was had by all. Proud and excited to be a part of the first Women in Reefing meeting.
