Which is it?

I'd love a Tort, Garf, and probably a Fox Flame.

I think I'm getting close to needing to be done. Maybe a couple torches to put with my Indo Gold, maybe a few more Blastos, Favias, and Gonis, some sand corals like a trachy or plate or both, and just a few more less light hungry sticks.
Trachy or Wellso would be my choice.

@tbrown My bad. TSA for the Acro . Notwoodyarmadillo would be proud of my level of stupid here. Candlelight Stag.
Riptide has a couple I've looked at that are similar. Very "Garf" like.

Some new shots. Nothing too exciting got the replacement light up and running . It’s fan working perfectly so hopefully that’s solved.

I was going to tear down my Fiji cube 10g so I can set up my 25 IM lagoon as a frag tank, but I realized I am a bit away from that at the moment. I decided this morning to temporarily keep the 10g where it is, pull the sand and turn it into a frag tank. Which I desperately need... or do I? MTS is bad with this one..

Some new pics. Most Acros still alive, not super happy, but I knew I was taking a chance adding them so fast. Now that my light has been replaced(first one had bad fan) hopefully that’ll help as well. Cleaned up a few rocks yesterday . Have a couple small turbo snails as well as a couple Cerith and Astrea .

Here’s the post from the SBB thread. Easier to just add it as a quote.
Photos! As I said earlier the nano got a lot of attention today. Split the corals between the tanks. The Kermit Octo went in the nano. Also so did the shroom. All Acros went in the nano. Moved stuff around so that the left side was all new ones plus a couple slightly older near the back. Took out the Sicce powerhead. So here we go-

How's the light working out?
Funny you ask. I was just about to post on the SBB thread that despite my issues on how the defective one was dealt with, I’ll wholeheartedly endorse getting them to any one. The customization of the settings is easy when you get the hang of it and the spectral coverage is easy to see at least in terms of vibrancy. So a big

How are your Phosphates doing? I can't keep any in my 40g cube or the Fiji cube I just set up as a frag tank. They say corals have horrible processing of phosphates in the water column, but mine seem to be doing a very good job of it.

TBH I haven’t checked yet. Considering all that‘s going on with this I really should check. The funny thing is I can’t seem to keep them up at all in the larger tank, but then again it IS pretty packed with coral. I’ll check tomorrow a few params including that and post the results.

Lots of stuff going on. Did a major cleaning. I have feeling that’ll be going on for a while. Moved and mounted 4 of the Acros. Did some other rearranging as well. Post is quoted from one I put up on SBB thread. Probably should’ve done the reverse, but oh well.
Got some new pics. Decided to mount a few of the Acros.

My Hectors Goby decided to hang out and be visible for more than 30 seconds. I probably should look into at least another passive tankmate to make it feel more comfortable.
