I've come to see first hand lately, just how much keeping ones hands out of the tank can lead to good growth. LOL... on the last pic..
 
thanks sue, she is a sport, i know i used to be like a mad scientists with my tank ,and had troubles all the time, do water changes every other week 10-15 gallons. and test every other and make sure the equipment is working.
 
Isn't that the very rare Acropora "phylla-yur-buttis"? I hear they can grow well in low light locations and are an easy coral to "rear" from frag to full colony.:razz:
