Behind the scenes....AV99's grow-out system. Local SPS hardcore collector for well over a decade. I will post pictures of my dream display tank soon. It's almost complete after many years in the making with total water volume  exceeding 1,000 gallons when complete (display is 600g custom on-sight Reef Savvy build).

AV99's grow-out system (its very old school but works for me).

Many more pictures to follow. At last count, I had well over 200 different SPS in grow-out. Only the best of the best will make it to my display tank.

That skimmer is just a baby. Give everyone  a look at your new skimmer to wet their appetite for your new system.

Love the updated pics Tim! That Orange Passion looks like it needs a trim...I think we’re going to have to discuss that. Looking forward to next week!

My favorite is the Raptor. I don’t know why that isn’t more popular with folks. I think it is truly unique and beautiful coral.

Thank you, Brian! I will make sure to send a nice frag of the Raptor your way when you are ready for it.

That is an awesome skimmer! You have more flow in your skimmer than I have in my tank. That old school bali green slimmer is very unique!

By invite I was able to meet with Tim and check out his collection. All I can say is WOW!  Per the pics below, Tim really took care of me. Filled my whole frag rack and half of another at more than reasonable prices. Colonies so big I had to frag them up. Unbelievable colors under my hybrid T5/LED’s. Can’t wait to see how these things do.
Thanks Tim!!

Thank you, Gary! Green Slimmer is nice and will get very large too.
