I must say I was wrong,when you took out your live rock,I felt it would hurt the tank. I am so glad I was wrong,SPS look great as does the tank. Thanks for the Vid. and all you do for your reef brothers. Mike

Amazing,as always ching!
Thanks for the video
It looks like,in some short time corals will outgrow the tank...and for a tank this size it's something remarkable,to say the least

Every video gets better and better sir. As always a lost for words. And the under water camera tops it off.

Amazing Video!! What a wonderful creation. Thank You!

Do you see any difference in growth or color of the corals using the LED's versus the VHO's?

Also, what bulbs are you running in the the Metal Halides now?

Well, that was more satisfying than my dives off Cuba last week. Seeing it up close and personal certainly made me appreciate your wonderful creation even more (if that was even possible).
