Nice ones! The blues in the top one are DEEP. That second one is just happy to see me.

No idea what the acans will colour up like, they have green faces!
(No I won't use the microthingy word, which bright spark came up with that change!)

I love interesting growth patterns. It will be cool to see how it changes its growth to your lighting and flow.

Settled quite well after the dip, I'll get a wider pic in a bit.

24 hours old, I take a lot of care with them, I avoid one or two polyps where I can and delicately glue the base flesh, I use plastic tweezers which help me not shake because I need to concentrate on pressure.
They don't go until there is new base flesh and at least 1 new open baby, 2 - 4 week turn around generally!

The care you give them shows!

Thank you, they reasonably much cover the physical running of the tanks, power excluded.
Talking of the power that is excluded, ... the first part of upgrading to this was having solar panels fitted!

Ok, new acro, feel free to chime in on a proper ID, this from the front, from my desk view it points out over open water at the mouth of the gorge!

More blurred but you get the idea, compared to above pic, pocilipora (spelling) placed yesterday, more light and more flow, seems ok to me!

That is a most perculiar shape of acro.
How could it grow such a stem with only some polyps at the tips?
Rare find...

It is a branch mounted horizontally, all the new growth is up.

I decided to try making my own zoa domes from 2 part epoxy, I got 16 out of a pack first try, the mould thingy will do 24 at a time, next time I will stretch things a bit!
First one in, it had a 48 hour air cure first!

Fleshing out slowly, so far so good.

This is precisely why I enjoy a 48"x24" shallow tank. TONS of swimming space.

what about 72" X 24"

People that have followed for a while will know I have "mood swings", apologies for being slow to respond on journals, stuff on my mind, the tank is fine!

"mood swings" being proper English for needing to run to the liquor store!

I take 3 times the dose most people get of my anti depressant to function on a daily basis, the tanks really keep me semi sane!
