Nice tank. Did you add both clowns at the same time. Wish I would got two.

[MtnDewMan]

Yes, they were added at the same time ... over 13 years ago

how do you get the sps frags attached to your live rock like that. do you use adhesive. i picked some up some glue from the logical reef but havent got a chance to try it out. if you could help me with any tips/tricks i would greatly appreciate. i am trying to fill in some steeper spots on my reef and the clean up crew constantly knocks the pieces down if i just "sit" them there, they really need to be glued on to the rock or something. thanks in advance

Chuck,
Beautiful pictures.
What is that bright pink Coral in the fouth picture? A small birdnest frag?

Really nice. As stated before the aquascape is simple but awsome. I like how it allows for lots of growth. Sometimes we become so consumed with the stardard rock wall look. I like to see something different in a tank. I say this because my last reef ended up to be just a rock wall. It was still awsome but just did not look very natural. As with my tank It will be cool to see yours in a year when the frags have grown out more. You are way ahead of me with your growth though. Very nice clams too!

Thanks everyone ... It is coming along slowly.

The pink piece is a frag of a bird's nest ... nice and pink.

That coral with the clown is a candy cane. The clowns call it home basically.

I use mainly super glue gel to hold down the frags ... for larger pieces I will use two part epoxy such as aquamend that you get at home depot.

Carla,
You will have to get a few books and read. Online BB is great for specific questions, but learn the basic of reefkeeping require more efforts on your part. You can either learn from a good reefer near your home, or else get several great books and read it. Then if you have any specific question, you can ask us.
Your question as above cannot be answer online here. Read and read and read is what you need. Because not all coral is the same, read about specific corals and their requirements. Then provide the condition they need to keep them alive. There is no easy way (or this is the easy way). You can buy the coral, then try to leard about it as it die. I don't recommend this method.
