Here are a few updated pics from my SPS frag tank. This setup is relatively new, but everything seems to be growing well. Please share your SPS pics as well!

Thanks for sharing, illnino! It doesn't seem like there is much local interest with SPS, huh?

you do get much more bang for your buck if you go LPS than sps...a 2" acro frag can cost you $75 when you can get a 8" neon green eichnophora(like i did) for $75...

I have several other frags too, they are just not really photogenic yet.

Jenghes- I grow a lot of pocillopora damicornis (cauliflower coral) in another reef that that looks similar to what you describe as green bird's nest coral? I attached a picture  below. Is this the same coral as yours?

That looks like my green bird's nest coral.
