Wow! Night pictures are hard to take. So grainy. Anyway, he's feeding! So hard to see but those feeder tentacles are out and his mouth is wide open.

Torches still make me panic. May yours grow very well!

Thats a nice bower
I really like the Bower. It has some cool colors. Yello outer band, red inner band, and then a nice sweet mint mouth. It's called a Winter Soldier Bower.

I've been wanting a Blue Raven forever! Honestly though I prefer the Matcha Latte... And I almost didn't buy it because it was drab.

I adjusted the flow so I moved the Green Alveopora back - it was whipping in the current.

Old project ended (75 has been transferred to the 125) and a new project begins! I made another rock piece today (this time with frag plug holes). I figure I'll use it to get the rack that the Blastos are on or the Gonis so they're on "rock" instead of egg crate. I'm probably going to make a couple with more holes since this one only has 3. If I use it for the Gonis it'll have room for one more, if I use it for the Blastos it's full... I plan on more Blastos and I plan on more Gonis. I could use it for the Alveoporas and have room for one more... Then use the one the Alves are on for the Gonis and have room for two more and make a 5 or 6 hole for the Blastos?
