+1 when things are going well.... otherwise they can be heartbreaking... Not going to try too many more until I get the 125 going with the MRC Calcium reactor going.... When things are going well, you cannot beat the colors and variety of shapes....
Monti caps are a great way to start, I love those things!!!

SPS are the most demanding coral there is. They require constant stability this means top of the line equipment for long term success. When it comes to long term keeping of these animals it requires dicipline, sacrafice, dedication to there needs. There are a handful of members here who can claim near mastery of these coral. If you decide to try them at some point I suggest you seek out and learn from them. At this point, there are only about three left who can keep a tank like the one the undertaker has in those photos above for any serious amount of time.

LOL there is nothing more rewarding than a full stocked healthy SPS system when it is done right, but there is nothing more frustrating than one that is done incorect.

Well maybe after a year or two of seeing how the tank is going then I might try some. I just hate the idea of killing them because I did something wrong.
