Like what has been said many, many times before. CONGRATS...and well deserved. The red table you have is amazing.

I am now determined to find one for my tank. Thanks again for sharing your reef.

Stunning...
I just started my new reef (it is half the size of yours) and yours is my inspiration...

It must have cost you a fortune to keep this amazing reef.
Could you tell us what is an average monthly cost?

Thanks, Moshe from Israel.

Moshe. Thanks.
It costs me around US$600 per month.
When you come to this stage, money is no longer the subject.
It doesn't mean that I am rich but it is the indication of how crazy and obsessional I am for this hobby.

upsetter. Thank you.
I dip every of my new corals with this one. Strongly recommend.
Just do it one time. Or you can dip it anytime you notice predator on that piece.

Any chance you have ever taken some par readings on your tank? I am having trouble with my sps bleaching and burning from my lights. I currently run 4-400 watt 12K Reflux bulbs in Luminarc reflectors and it "seems" like too much...I have a 420 gallon display (96"L x 36"W x 28"H. You have alot more light than I do and your corals are like nothing I have seen before. Do you think the huge amount of flow has something to do with it?

Sorry, I never take par readings on my tank.
What I can comment is, I use mogul reflector but you use Luminarc reflector.
So the focusing point is totally different.
My light is not as strong as yours in the same area.
That's why it can cause your SPS to be burnt.
Flow may be something but not much.

So do you think it might be wise to cut back to 250 wattage?

Why don't you lift up your lighting a little higher.
I think it would help.
