Some Majano love!! They look happy as heck :) Tank looks great too, a little bit of everything in there.

This one is a @Tamberav appreciation post for contributing these beautiful anemone accents to my tank! I lost mine several years ago in a tank crash, and I am excited to have them again now.

Well folks, yesterday I went to the LFS just to see what they had in stock, and before I knew it I was remodeling my tank and trading in a huge coral colony to make room for a new addition!

I didn't leave home planning to do that, but this Magnifica is huge and in perfect health, so I jumped at the opportunity. I think I have all the colors covered now - red, orange, yellow, green, purple here, and blue when the Gigantea is big enough to come upstairs.

Also, some of the nems were looking droopy in the morning, so I changed the carbon. Just leaving a note so I can start tracking how often I need to do that...

Life has been pretty busy, but I feel I need to update this, if only so I remember stuff later. Let's see...

Got a new BTA.
Rescued an LTA.
Moved all of my hospital basket anemones into an isolated segment of my sump.
My Chicago Sunburst split.
My green BTA & blue gigantea were looking rough, and my Riterri took a walk into a powerhead today (really thankful for the guards I installed). So I did a water change and changed out the carbon.

Quick update, I moved some corals out and moved some to the frag tank, just enough to bring up some of the anemones!

It's a little taller than I wanted, but the rock on top with a BTA can go back to the sump if the BTA moves. I'm blasting it with lots of flow, so hopefully it will be "encouraged" to move soon.
That is gorgeous!
