I keep hoping my husband will get interested in it (aka, more willing to invest in a larger system). He thinks it looks cool but that's about it. If he took the our kids to buy me a gift they would probably come home with a seahorse or tang or starfish...that would be totally incompatible...sigh 😔 maybe some day.

But a 20 for the new clown (and lots of new corals) would be fantastic!!

Haha, they wanted a fat head anthias :p, but the owner of the lfs they went to knows me and my tank (pretty much the only store I but coral from locally, and has been for years) and told them flat out no . And an added bonus she has officially demanded a trio when we build our custom tank, which is cool.

3 big tanks ATM and they just revamped their fish system too. It's been awhile since I've been up to your neck of the woods though, the 2 up by you are my other 2 favorites. I've heard BTR has steped there game back up, need to check in on them again

Little late on this topic but my bf just loves this hobby too! I got him into freshwater and I've noticed him peeking over my shoulder when I'm working on the saltwater and I know he wants one now! It's a cool hobby to do as a couple.

Photo dump time

The new merleti is starting to come around.





Acans





Really love these, the first acans added to this tank, and have almost tripled the heads.



A different angle than I've posted before



These have exploded lately, new polyps sprouting up almost daily



And these were a few I took for the POTM, now to figure out which to enter.









And the duo





And of course, FTS

Being a clown :p , she's hosting the mag cleaner pad in the back top right corner. Somehow she knows that's the best spot to hide from pics
