Very nice scape with lots of height variation...

Was not happy with the right side scape so remove the rocks and make a new scape on the right side... Think it looks better.

hack off the rocks of yuma and glue it on top of the rock of the new scaping.

Yellow is actually one of the most difficult color to hold. In an enclosed system,very few sps species has the ability to hold yellow under lower lighting...hence it is very common that insufficient lighting and high nutrient level causes the yellow to turn greenish or brown.

Assuming your nutrient level is reasonably low, the only way to hold yellow is by either exposing it to high lighting level or by the harsh way of introducing ULN method (which is very tedious).

From your pic, the position of the frag is not ideal in terms of trying to keep it's yellow coloration, my suggestion is to place it at the highest light possible, at least it will stand a chance to regain it's yellowish tint.

Give it a try.

Treat others the way you wanna be treated...

Woa Klyve, you really Kwai Tau Chan Luan Ma, completely overhaul your tank. With so much open space, a school of Anthias will look wonderful. Btw, the 2 polyps Nuclear Death I got from you has multiplied to 8 polyps. Looking forward to seeing your SPS mature. Way to go man !!
