Merry Christmas everyone. Also thanks for the kind words guys. It's well appreciated after all the hard work that goes into maintaining the tank.
Here are some shots taken earlier today. Hope you guys enjoy them.

A measure of a successful reef tank is when the corals run out of room to grow sooner rather than later and start competiting with each other... Look at the SPS growing on the bottom glass, that nuts!

Thanks guys.
I use a doser (http://reefdosingpumps.com/products/sentry.html). It's very easy to set-up and make adjustments too. Also, I don't have to worry about over dosing with this sort of method. Some people like to run their units when their lights go off to help with their PH during the night. I dose 24-7. For ALK I've been using the BRS Soda Ash (http://www.bulkreefsupply.com/store/...aquariums.html). For calcium, BRS Calcium Chloride (http://www.bulkreefsupply.com/store/...aquariums.html).
You guys already know that water parameters are important in maintaining a healthy reef, so I wont bore you with that. But the 10-15% weekly water changes, 2x 400Watt Radiums, and running a CO2 scrubber is what's giving me that killer growth.
