Hi guys,

I am Maga, I have been a Marsh member since about 2010, mostly lurking, although I have met many of you buying corals and visiting your beautiful tanks :). I have started my first saltwater tank in the Spring of 2010, and have been keeping between one to four sw tanks ever since, I currently have two 65 gallons and one 20G copepod/amphipod farm. My main DT tank is a LPS-dominated reef-in-progress, as in the title. What brought me to the hobby was the love of Banggai and when I saw a Banggai photo on the cover of Mike Palette book I decided I have to try it :) I have been breeding Banggai at some point between 2010 & 2012, want to do it again and I am setting up a tank dedicated to it, but my Live Aquaria tank-raised Banggai pair is still juveniles. Also looking for a male Banggai for an adult female I have in my main display (LPS reef), if you have an adult Banggai for sale or trade please let me know, I know how to sex them. I am participating in the Marsh grow out and the blasto frag I will get this Saturday is going to this tank. That is how it looked a couple weeks ago, looks different now, I am still in a phase when I re-arrange things a lot ;). Parameters are in the sig (top), it was officially re-started in the beginning of this year, but most of the rocks and some fish have been with me since the beginning of 2010.

-Maga

Yes, exactly - that actually motivated me to start this thread. The blasto frag will start in the sand near the front glass, so I can easily observe it, and later we will see.

It was very nice to meet you, too, and thanks for helping me out with coral emergency! The blasto frag is nice and puffy, happy in my tank. We are celebrating my son's birthday today, so probably will be no time to make the photos, but looks like we are off to a great start :).
