Hi Jimmy, yeah its a sunburst its has a cool split though some of its tentacles have the inferno colors the others sunburst but its been sick for the past two weeks
been a while since I've updated. Basically the tank has gone through some hard times. I lost all the fish to brook, My sunburst has been looking small and kinda sick, its a really bummer everything else in the tank is growing well and looks good. I did find some stray voltage, I added a titanium grounder and it took care of the problem. As a far as the nem goes, Ive been researching and Im getting just about every different answer. Some say lots of flow others say no flow. Some say feed every day others say don't feed at all. Only thing that I can say might be affecting it is that I switched salts from tropic marine to RSCP, It did put the tank through a little cycle. Im assuming that it will recover because it hasn't lost any of its color or moved so I assuming its not terribly unhappy. Its been fish less for three weeks now so ill add some fish soon. Thinking about two clowns, a sunburst anthia and a potters angel.

Update:
Well I finally added fish, I added a flame angel, Bi-color blenny, and Stunburst Anthia. The flame is great I love watching him, he is still afraid of me though runs every time I go to the tank. I was really digging the bi-color, it would perch on all the corals. Found him behind the tank yesterday though lasted about three days haha :rain: The sunburst hides all day, I do see him occasionally swim around but for the most part he hides. I hope he gets a little more comfortable with time, he has amazing colors.
As for the coral, its all doing really good. Ive kinda have everything organized, all the euphilias in one area, mushrooms, polyps, chalices all kind of have there own area haha. One thing Ive decided to do is does Red Sea Products, I've pretty much purchased all there supplements. Reef Foundation ABC, Reef Colors ABCD and, Reef energy AB. Ive been dosing for about two weeks and I wanna say Ive noticed a difference but to be honest its to soon to tell. My goals is too reach there recommended levels for LPS tanks Which are as followed
CA 440
KH 12
MAG 1340
PHOS 1-2
My Levels before dosing'
CA 420
KH 8.4
MAG 1500
PHOS undetectable
My Current Levels as of today
CA 440
KH 9 (gonna do this one super slow don't want to kill anything)
MAG 1400
PHOS undetectable
I plan on changing my water changes from once a week to, every two weeks. That should Lower Magnesium levels and up PHOS a little
On another note, I found out that Advanced Acrylics and Clam Mania won't be attending MAX. I was planning on purchasing a ATO res and nice clam. Kinda bummed about that. Anyways enough ranting heres some pics (NO FTS because there was a glare on the screen that I couldn't get off)
I fragged up this Chalice if anyone wants to trade, Its really nice (purple with blue streaks and pink eyes)
I also fragged up a My MIAMI chalices if anyone wants to trade its the chalice on the left
All the previous picks were taken with all whites on, no blues
This is with some blues on

Newe70, IMO kessil is a much better shimmering LED! I have two tanks next to each other, one with a A150 and the other with the hydra. The A150 looks so much better.. I've been lookin into the new 360we which I might just switch over to buuuuuut kessil super failed without adding their own controller to control the color and ramp times. That's why I went with AI to begin with and that reason only...controllability. Maybe later when I get an apex will I make the switch, so if you have an apex already I'd get the kessil!
