But not jealous of my tacky disco ball?? You have no taste :face-with-tears-of-joy:
Can I just hang my chilli like that under a cave? My fish then have a night club :rolling-on-the-floor-laughing:

Infact, now I’ve mentioned it one of my chilli’s has vanished deep into a cave

The other is just insanely sulky and I think I need to dump more detritus near it.

My most expensive torches I’ll (hopefully) ever own. I promise those last 3 are different!

Some updates!!

My big red goni is now in this tank, let’s see him get huge!

This leather is starting to show its potential in size for sure, it must be 6-7 inches in diameter.

I got myself MORE acros! Obviously. And I also glued my chilli’s down finally, they’ve just been hanging out in caves and not really been their happiest.

These torches are just glowingly toxic. My Torch of the Gods and Holy Grail!

These are amazing photos. I love closeup shots that show off the textures as well as the color contrasts.

Yeah I thought so. A friend had given me ac$100 GC they weren’t going to use so that pup was free. And the tweety bird was only 3.45 after GC I had. The Goni is one of the few yellow ones I’ll have. I have a highlighter but it’s more day glow green/yellow. And the tweety was used in a “give a new name to a wysiwyg” contest for a 30 buck GC that I won. Here’s the name I came up with.

For now, a video of feeding the Gorgonian! Think I need a couple more of these, they really do help the transition from Softies to SPS.

What coral type are Gorgonians? Softies or SPS?

Flashback Thursday! The 4 foot tank and my favourite Angels. I keep looking at a Watanabei at the LFS, I’m waiting for the day I pull the trigger…

Did some redecorating this morning. New Riptide corals had come in yesterday. Moved a larger Goni to the left side and put an artificial frag rock in its place with new Gonis . Couple pics from yesterday with other newbies.
