I am seeing more acans in your zoa garden than zoas :P

I wondered when I was going to get called out on this :)

 

I've added more zoas since my last update but most of them are still single polyp so a FTS would look the same, acan dominated! I think watching everything grow out is my favorite part in all this.

So far my zoas are:

 

Pink Krakatoa

Deja Vu

Tyree Orange Rainbow

Mean Green

Candy Apple Orange

Candy apple red

Armageddon II

Mandarin Orange

Frozen Frog Eyes

Sunny Ds

Eye of suron

Pacman

Golden Maul

Rockefeller

Rasta

Ring of fire

Tubs blue

Super saiyan

Blue eye girl

Hawain pe

Salted agave

Speckled fire and ice

Green Bay packers

And Mohawks

 

I have about 12 more to add but im in the middle of nose surgerys so I have to keep my hands out of the tanks as much as possible.

Tanks looking pretty good. Once those Zoas start to spread it will look better.

Thanks! This time next year if all goes well it's gonna look nice. Most of these are slower growers so we will see.

 

I added a Yellowhead Jawfish yesterday. I'll probably add either a wrasse or mandarin down the road and that will be it for fish.

 

I'm also still debating on either bio pellets or macro algae in the sump. I don't have a large area for macro so I'm not sure it really helps with nutrient removal, the only benefit would be the reverse light cycle (I think)

For every 50 pictures I take...

 

I hated shutting it down to be honest and now it's back and running there's a few corals I could kick myself for getting rid of. I'm happy to have gotten rid of a couple fish I never could have if I didn't break it down so dam if you do darn if you don't.

 

We still may move so I'll just cross that bridge when I get there

I've added a few pieces and I've lost a few pieces, Goes with the new tank I guess. It just sucks it was two nice torches that would have been sweet once they grew out...

 

Im far from good but the camera skills have improved :)

An Orange one and a Neon green with yellow tips. I think my chalice was too close and I didn't catch it until it was too late

 

Looking good! What kind of torches did you lose?

I was going to say, your other euphillia look alright.
