Yessir got the blotchy Anthias next week amd the goldflake coming in tomorrow my pair of clowns comes next week as well[/QUOTE where did you buy your fish from

locito277 · Nov 19, 2016

Rick Correa for the clowns and TSM your buddy for the goldflake and Anthias

2 pacific blue tangs a Naso, coral Beauty, and a harem of pink square Anthias. 1 boy 3 girls. Gave up on CBB :-( all 3 passed. Gonna bypass them altogether. Maybe for the 220 eventually. I'll add him first and try to get him feeding. 220 will be a much more relaxed softie tank with gorgonians, LPS, softies and anemones. The 720 is too fast paced for them. Felt bad for the last guy standing.

Thx I really need to get a PAR meter though. I'm scared the light may be bothering my carpet. It gets all hidden and puked the silverside back out today. Strange thing is when the sun comes in from outside or I only run the T5s amd Kessils in blue it opens up. Really strange and has me a little worried. It ate early in the day but tonight it regurgitases it.

I have been following this build from the start and I am so glad everything is on track!

I love those pyramid butterflys!! I just found out about these fish a couple of weeks ago and thought they look wonderful.

Keep up the great work.

Thx Jas. You and I both. I saw them on another thread and got lucky. When I went to pick up the blue carpet in Orlando Sea in the city had two pyramids! Awesome fish and eat everything. Love them

See if one of the LFS will rent you a par meter for a day. Nems are strange. They look great for a few days, then one day they look terrible. Then they look great again. It also could be with the system being what 2 weeks old, is adjusting to all the new changes

That could be an issue as well. It's looking. Ice now since it let the silverside out and only the. Lie lights are on. Once the clowns get here that should also help the anemone out. They get here Tuesday or Wednesday. I rather just buy the PAR meter and have it available anytime. Do they require calibration? Also what model would you recommend?
