Everything is looking great! I have a friend that lives in Monterey, I think I'll have to make a trip out there and check out the aquarium! And belated congrats on obtaining your license!!
Thank you! Let me know if you do make a trip out here. I’ll send you home with some free coral!

any idea how long that Stylo has been in your tank?
10 months. That one is a ORA neon green birdsnest. It grows so fast. I frag it all the time too. My LFS won’t even take my frags anymore :( lol

oh no! It was sold to me as a “teal stylophora” lol, (the guy made me feel bad for questioning if it was a birds nest!!) mine was the tiniest of frags and has grown so fast, this is after maybe 1.5 months. My MH is already off for the night, this is under the evening LEDs.

Yours looks like a birdsnest to me, but time will tell, if the branches get long and kinda sharp it’s a birdsnest, if they stay more rounded it’s most likely a stylo. Nice growth!

Soo it seems like we are moving sometime in the next few months. Pretty worried about what I’m going to do with the tanks. Hopefully everything works out.

I'll be there next weekend and I'll help you out, I'll take some of the corals with me and when you're done moving, I'll have them ready for you..

Lol that’s not a bad idea! You are a pro at growing coral too, maybe you can get my dang Walt Disney to take off.
