The Official Asylum Reef Tank Thread

Well, I decided not to go LED.
I ordered lamps and food. Another 300 bucks down the chute. I think I could switch to a hard core heroin hobby and be money ahead.

I have to admit, now that the problems have subsided, I'm enjoying this reef more and more every day. I'm afraid that my beautiful wife may once again be right. I'm starting to get glad we set it back up.

I think I mentioned picking up a few more corals the other day. Yellow polyps were one, and I think the grassy mat is a pipe organ coral. The beige thing with blue eyeballs that comes right out of rock is called a gonapora? No idea how to spell it.

Now if I can get some different red and blue polyps to grow some mats, I'd be thrilled. A couple more starfish, and some pulsing xenia would round it out and I think my livestock acquisition phase will be over. Key word, think.
