Hey guys. Yeah, everything is ok. I've been spending more time with my family lately. I got a little burned out and I'd be lying if I said that the fish coming down with velvet didn't add to it. I've lost the Hippo tang (yup, the very same one that made it though CP the first go around), my blue star leopard wrasse and my yellow eye kole tang. The rest are doing ok, though I'm a bit worried about the purple tang since he seems to be sulking behind a pvc pipe for the last 2 weeks. I've got an update on the tank though! I've had a doser on the tank for a while and things seem to have leveled off. The zoas are starting to open up more and the corals seem to be doing much better in general. The aptasia problem seems to be ebbing for now, but this nasty algae is starting to get out of control. I've added a sea hare and several turbo snails (even though I hate them), hermits and astrea snails to the tank with little improvement. I'm so close to adding the fish back to display....
leds only and a little blurry, sorry
The QT. Copperband, pair of clowns, black cap basslet, purple tang, achilles tang, diamond goby and cardinal in residence.
The display with the leds and the MH on. I actually really enjoy the tank with the MH on and since they are only on for 2 hours a day, it doesn't effect the temp of the tank or the house at all.
Oh, and you like that really awesome bicolor frogspawn? Me too.
There is also a new green carpet anemone on the far left side. He moved a bit from the front of those two little rocks to now being behind them but it's still visible when standing in front of the tank but obviously not in this picture.
I really hope this isn't the same thing.
