I will probably be comin over early Saturday, and depending on the conditions, I may make it by the time the meeting starts, at least that is the plan.

Nice pics! wish i could frag a couple of those haha!
You are gonna have to get here to do that................ but that would be OK. I am actually on a mission to see how big the colonies get before I absolutely have to frag em, but a little piece here and there won't hurt.

What is the one right above those pictures of the bonsai?
That is the ORA red planet. I have another smaller colony of that. To me ............................. I think it is a millepora. it has been a fairly easy coral for me. And..................... it is just a beautiful coral.

I have noticed a sizable jump in calcium lately. Trying to slowly bring it down but I should probably try another test kit too. I'm still working with the 5% twice a week water change. It's always interesting to see what percentage of water people are changing regularly.
Here's this weeks tale of the tape @ 8AM:
temp- 77.5
sal.- 33
Ph- 8.17
alk- 8.0 dkh
Ca- 415
Mg- 1380
Freakin alkalinity...........................lol.

Looks like a nice ph for that early. Do you notice much of a ph swing during the night or are you running a sump on a reverse light cycle?
I am running a 75 gallon refugium on the reverse photoperiod, that and I am dripping kalk 24/7. I don't notice much of a swing, 8.1 to maybe 8.4 during the whole day, so life in that respect is good.
