And, I remember, @SneakyTortuga I still owe you an FTS, although you would be disappointed to see it at this time

I’m IMPATIENTLY waiting! The tank is looking spot on from what I can see! But I cant see much without the FTS cough, cough.

How did the episode with the angel go?

The angel is still in the tank, but he is now trained to eat from a fish trap. The trap is kind of semi-permanently mounted in the tank since August, which is part of why an FTS would look so bad! I've been looking for a home for him for 3 months but no luck so far.

Sorry to hear that. I just checked out your first post again and your tank and stand or just stunning. Figure out that angel problem so you don’t have an excuse to hold out on us. @bubbaque wouldn’t post a fts for the longest for similar reasons but when he did all he received was praise

This one was sold to me as "RR Event Horizon" at MACNA 2017. I have no idea if that's accurate, but I like it

I've been fighting a really bad cyano outbreak in my display, but here is an FTS I took after a recent cleaning. I need to break out the good camera and do a proper FTS, but I thought I'd at least post some kind of update here ...

I have not been moving any coral into this tank since March for various reasons, so everything in there has been growing for 8 months or so. Last weekend I started moving a few more frags over.

Great looking tank. Curious with your user name / avatar do you build tesla coils?

Lol, nothing like that. It turns out "jolt" is a reasonable contraction of my first and last names, and I just liked the picture for my avatar. I'm a software engineer by trade.

I think the ASD Rainbow is happy where I put it on the rocks

Got an updated picture of the Ora bellina? I love that coral and never see it anymore!

I don't at the moment but I will take some. It has been doing well in the display and in the frag tank. One of my favorites!
It's sensitive though. I had three small colonies, and lost 95% of one of them when I cut a frag from it
