    Thumbs up Definately well deserved!

    That is amazing what you have done in 1 year Naser! Your approaches are simplistic and obviously working for you. The only question I have for you is calcium related, Do you have a Ca Reac.? or use 2part or drip Kalk? Other than that Awesome Job! I love the caps!

    Thumbs up Congrats!!!

    I agree with everyone on the simplistic approach and always felt that words like "keep it simple,stupid" were the best advise in the hobby
    Again,congrats and I couldn't think of a better choice,it is remarkable to have this kind of growth in one year without fancy gadgets ;)
    Kind regards,

    Gene.

    Wink Congrats

    Well done Naser
    I am totally stumped at your before and after pic that is unbelievable growth for one year and your not using a cal reactor Amazing you must be using a lot of calcium supplement because thats a lots of stoney coral growth .
    Well done your tank is awesome

    Great Job!

    Can you post some pics of the fish?? I think Scopus tangs are great looking and don't know too many people who keep them!

    The swirls on your caps are terrific!

    Very nice! Love the color and growth form of the capricornis. Looks like you may be needing a bigger tank in a year or so from your growth rate

    I think he will need to have one sooner than that, unless he drastically frag his corals. 6 months max.
