On January 5, 2013 I posted this picture of the Yellow Scroll coral. It wasn't doing well at all, but I saw plenty of DNA. Here it is today, just shy of 11 months later. Never give up on a coral until there's nothing left. Here's a view from the end of the tank today. iPhones make me lazy...

Your tank is on auto-pilot, you aren't making any new purchases, you see the same troublesome areas that need to be tended to but have little desire to actually get those cared for.

Two days ago, I posted up on DFWMAS' forum that ...
Saturday and Sunday, I moved the livestock and rock from the temporary tank to the new ones. After mostly everything was cleaned up, the lights were out and I was quietly at my computer, I spotted the 60g aquarium looked cloudy from afar.
