FTS. Seagrass with ulva filling the gap. Splash of red patch reef is getting crowded.



Lots of botryocladia with a flash of blue. The allen's damsels seem to get prettier as they grow.



Closer view of the ulva. See also the fern caulerpa behind and up the back wall. Just above the allen's damsel is the turtle weed at the base of the wall.



A few days ago this area was three inches deep with brown grasilaria. Now its all but gone. Kinda hard to tell but the shoal grass is in front, manatee grass in back. Though I won't miss the grasilaria, I do like having a ground cover between the grasses.



It's still got a ways to go, but the plants are growing in well. The mangroves have about a foot to go to the surface.



Pretty fish.



End view.



Dusk lighting.
