I used to have a 12 gal. aquapod, and since upgrading to my 55 I have decided to go with all sps/lps and zoas. One of the few holdovers left from that tank is a rock of turquoise blue palys that is absolutely stunning in actinic light. Unfortunately I just don't have room for them in the tank, and in the process of moving around some coral I just threw it in the corner behind my rose bta. Man, that thing spreads, drops frags, and they attach to the rock fast! If I put a small frag of them close ...

I'm been reef keeping close to decade and had strange experience this last week.

My last tank lasted 6 years before losing power while away. I have slowly and carefully restocked tank. I had 4 tangs in system in two different connected tanks.

Blown76mav, I can relate to because a "71" ...

So I was "this" close to getting an Aquapod 24 yesterday. A close friend of mine was breaking his down and put it up on the local boards for sale. He didn't name a price so that is probably why I wasn't turned off of the idea completely to begin with. Of course he said for me to name my price and of course I couldn't because I'm sitting here thinking ... "you could be an awesome friend and just give it to me ". In the end he offered to trade my very favorite ultra wide angle lens for the tank ...
