It's not the best but its mine, this tank is proof that even though sumps are very beneficial it is possible to run sumpless and still maintain a nice reef. I will be upgrading to one next year though when I do my tank upgrade. But I've had this 55 running for 6 years now. Sorry for the bad quality imageshack.us/a/img197/5775/img0137jt.jpg

Started having issues with cyano and hair algae as you can see when my ro unit got broke, had to use my tap which is horrible. Now that I just got a new one it should start clearing up CAN'T WAIT

great looking tank I have to laugh and think Edward Bernays would be so proud when I see someone in LFS with a sales rep "that has never had a tank" is saying you need this and you must have that. It's nice to see a 6 year old tank running smoothly without a truckload of expensive equipment under the hood.

What is the green coral next to your (green bay packers) zoas? It's in the third pic you posted on the middle left...also what is in the 2nd pic, bottom middle? it's whitish looking with green mouths? They're a cluster of circular shapes? LOVE it!

The first coral I've had for 5+years I've never been able to get a positive ID people tell me it's goniopora even though I don't believe it because the polyps are very different but I've never seen another. The second I believe that you we're talking about my favia brain.

I love them BOTH! The brain takes the vote, but they're gorgeous! Love your tank!

Can you get a better picture of the one your trying to identify?? It doesn't look like goniopora, it kinda looks like a cup coral but hard to tell in the pic.

I was just doing some extensive research and I finally found a picture of it. It's listed as Goniopora ciliatus
