[FONT="]Tri-color Valida looked like it was dying, then the death stopped, but someone bumped it and snapped it off the frag plug and I can’t find it.[/FONT]

[FONT="]The Bubble Gum coral bit the dust. I don’t have good pics of the Anomone, it just chills out on the backside of the LR, seems to be doing fine.[/FONT]
[FONT="]I didn’t get pics of the Red Caps, but they finally took hold and are growing a little.[/FONT]
[FONT="]The biggest news is that I made a decision to forego the miracle mud refugium in favor of building a turf-algae filter, and doing away with the skimmer and filter socks completely. This should solve the phosphate problem (not really a problem, but there) and give the corals a nice boost, along with eliminating one pump which will help with the tank heat (which gets up to 82 some days, even with ice bottles). Plus I won’t have to clean filter socks anymore. Yay!![/FONT]
