Macropharyngnodon Xenojoulis female

Attached are the original pictures I took when we go them in July 2009. The Male (in green) was sold to stoneriff (Jesse) and I have had the female ever since - that's one heck of a QT :)

Glad it's doing well - I know the radiants are enjoying their new home :)

Hot looking! Is this a pocillopora or stylophora?

nice shot of the eggs what lense did you use to get that macro shot and do you have any of the mother that laid them?

HGH.. now those are fighting words. !!!

Who needs HGH, when the corals are already growing well.

I too am amazed that I managed to outgrow a tank this size in a year. Upgrade.. now that may be way more than I can afford, since it might involve being thrown out of the house.

I think randy and I have foiund the key to a successful tank... AEFW !! Once the corals grow to a certain size and they get hit with flatworms they grow faster to stay ahead of the damage the flatworms may cause. How is that for a hypotheses. ?

Seriously, I did get the dreaded flatworms and I am living with them. Other than a few initial corals that became a victim before I realized what was going on, I have not torn down my tank to rid of them. If you want to see the mother lode of all AEFW eggs here is a picture.

On the bright side of things, I can finally trade with Randy !!

I hope that I did not miss this, but is there a link to the build thread where Sanjay showed us how to build the pillars or islands of rock? I thought that I read some where that he had a thread on that. If anyone knows where that is, I would really appreciated it. I looked in the DIY and did not see it, but then again, it's late and could have missed it. Sweet tank! I am setting up a new tank and looking for new ideas. Man, did I find some!

Very nice! How did you keep all the SPS growing and thriving? Mine turned white under my T5 lighting and I think my tank water is too dirty for SPS also.

A very nice honor Sanjay - congrats!

I especially liked this quote
The majority of the coral in my tank have a story and a connection to people, places and friends I got them from and serve as repository of memories.
