Thanks Matt. It has turned a corner but still has a long way to go. There are lots of corals still under performing.

Thanks very much. Back to doing water changes most weeks and still dosing. One day I will break down and get a calcium reactor.

Thanks Mark, I still have lots of issues in the reef but at least it isn't as embarrassing as it was

I used to have a pretty large colony of this stag but lost it and it's on the rebound growing from a small frag I saved. The branches were about 10 inches tall on the mother colony.

Merry Christmas to you and your family Greg. Going over old pics of how you set up your rock work/ aquascape. Will definitely be taking some ideas when I finally start my tank next month. Thanks for all the inspiration and wisdom.

If I'm not mistaken, that should be the Divided/Blue Star Leopard Wrasse (Macropharyngodon bipartitus)
