I have a social shrimp he came flying out for a picture after I had already took this one haha. Also the red leg crabs and those turbos have completely sifted the top and cleaned up all the nasty already they're little workers the nasserous snails I got are small and lazy compared to the other cleaners.

Nah I didn't make one for it. It was my native tank turned reef. It all happened in a matter if a couple hours haha. I'll take some pics and post them on here for you to see

Well I bought it awhile back like that. So far it has spawned about 20 more since then. I lost count at 130 something heads

Latest update: I have a bacterial bloom going for about alittle over a week now. I added GFO around the same time and don't know if maybe that had something to do with it? I rinsed it real well but it's definitely bacterial. It looks like I dumped in a jug of mayfield. I assume I just need to wait it out? Water changes don't help it. It seems alittle better today though. Also my big clownfish is completely calm until my lights start ramping up then it's like the Daytona 500 starts swimming fast around the tank like he is stressed they have been in for a week now. Anyone have any suggestions with either issue id be interested to hear.

 

[cameronh]

How's the bloom?

 

[Catchemall]

Still blooming cloudy. Haha. It's about time for my weekly water change so maybe it'll help out. Shew I miss my clear sparkling water. So is this normal and is there anything I can do?

 

[Reefaddict305]

That's normal, eventually it will go away and yes the water change will help out a lot of if its too much then try doing water change every other Day for like a week. It's worked for me in the past.

 

[Catchemall]

Awesome that sure is good to hear I want my water to be as pristine as can be and this has been hard for me to have a cloudy tank. I'm still learning. So are their any other phases I need to be on the look out for in the next little bit?

 

[Catchemall]

Our shrimp molted last night. I thought it was cool that his antannae shedded too.

 

[mixedberries]

very nice corals

Nice looking tank. Very smart to take things slow and QT your fish. You might want to consider a screen for the top of your tank. I had a clown fish jump out of my tank before I added my screen. They're easy to make, BRS has a good video on how to build one.

 

[Catchemall]

Thanks I've been meaning to do the cover I need to get on that for sure that would hurt if one jumped out.

Any updates man?
