Softies and LPS. This pic is 6 months old now but you get the idea. I am slowly 'remodeling' the inside of the tank. A lot of these corals have since gone to good homes and I am gearing up for the 'great coral purchase of 2006' where when my wife finds out what I spent she will prefer I sleep beside the tank for a while. It will be worth it .



That's a colt coral on the left up high that I got as a 4" frag. It is massive now and I can't frag it fast enough!

Full tank shot (it's only 5 months old)




For some reason photobucket.com wouldn't allow me to show my picture right side up. I appologize.

that is a Sarcophyton elegans (yellow fiji leather). Here's another picture:



I have since moved him higher in the tank and he is thriving. He is one of the corals I am keeping actually. My bicolor blenny and my yellow goby love to hang out in him. Here's a picture I snapped tonight actually of one of the fish doing that:



HTH!

That yellow watchman goby looks very comfortable with such a large chair .
