    Looking stunning @Ravs

    They have grown!!!

    I see you run quite a lot of blue on your tanks, how's the algae with so much blue?

    Yep, I keep the blues on most of the time, The BGKF enjoy it and happier to swim about, so far no algae but i think the Flagtail keeps that under control. They are growing very quickly even the Severums are about the size of my palm.

    Thanks Ravish,
    Glad to hear that

    Will see how it goes with my new lights being so blue

    I have added a Flagtail there too but he is still smallish...
    All your fish are in amazing condition

    Appreciate the kind words Maria, I have the ZP-4000 which is only about 35W, maybe that's why there hasn't been any algae yet, the 7300's are 200W, I'm not sure if that could contribute to algae growth.

    Yup, I don't notice how much bigger my Rays have gotten.
    But often friends of mine come round who I haven't seen for a few months and they comment on how much bigger they are

    Yes, When my niece's come over they get shocked at the size but they still look the same to me.
