WHAT!!! I was a joke! I thought this was for real:lol:
I am glad you guys like the yellow stripping. I think it kinda gives the tank balance no?? It may look uncomfortable in old tank but Buddy (the fish) loves to give high fives with his tall fin. For flow I stuck a power head in front of him, so all good their. For waste control I have insert a tube directly from the source so it all gets exported!
Liveforphysics came by to help me set up the new algae filter. its a 1200 gallon bin...I think he got a little carried away
and here is a pic of Luke helping....boy here sure does like his algae!!
I will get some more pics up a little later

LOL Great thread. I didn't know the Canadian Reef tank went that far south of the boarder. Could you please explain your rock placement? It seems you have figured out how to recreate the the natural lines you would see on a mountain road after a mudslide.
Cheers my friend, people have worked years to achieve what you have.

After much research I can say with some certainty that the rock is Labrea asfaultinsis with an encrusting yellow P. stripeacornis. It is a very slow grower which can be expected to have a growth spurt annually in the spring. The rock is a poor choice as it is subject to pothole disease and can actually become rubble in a very short time. Good choice for the P. stripeacornis though it is quite hardy accepting a wide range of lighting and can do well in temperatures ranging from -20F - 170F.

Have you found in your research that P. stripeacornis has a tendency to color fade over time?

Only if not properly cared for like exposure to high levels of UV and lack of proper supplements.

Thanx Kevin!! What do you attribute the growth spurt in the spring to?
