Every time I wipe down the acrylic I knock chunks off of everything. I'm in bonsai mode now, pruning the colonies into pretty shapes so they don't overshadow others

I know who to hit up when I need an awesome frag pack! im sure your casualties/leftovers are pretty awesome!

Any updates on this beauty?

The tank is officially coming down. Had a messy alk swing that upset the balance and the wife and I are moving across the Bay. Got everything back on track, but too scared to try and move it all so close to the alk swing. Glad I was able to share pics with everyone. Here are the last few shots. Going out with a bang. Should have something new set up within the year. Time for a fresh start.

Some hot CAR morph

Cornbred Rainbow Crush

Some candy morph

Don't see this one very often - JKR Shockfire

Twin Spot Watermelon Psammy

Pink Hallucinations

SC Orange Passion

SC Purple Poison

Craziest Scoly I've ever had

Burning Ember (just red scoly)

Some would say I have an utter Chaos problem

I can't get rid of them

Another no namer

Sorry to hear about the alk swing rich. Your tank and corals are all spectacular for sure. I'm sure it's gona be tuff letting go of it but think of all the extra tike you will have-what u gona do with yourself, lol

Hey also I kno u have some pretty sick shrooms. I get people hitting me up weekly about selling my shrooms but I don't have much for sale lately. So if u want me to send out some feelers for you I'm more than happy to help u unload some of your brotha man. They mostly local reefers so no shipping hassles

Eventually. I just can't handle moving it again and worrying about a second swing that wipes out what's left. When I do set up another tank I'm going with a bilevel set-up. Starting 100% from scratch

When you say bilevel do you mean like a drop off style tank?
