My First Marine Tank (Deep Dive)

A little late but welcome to the salt life!

Thanks reef!

Coraline Algae had now started to grow [emoji3] pardon the crumby photo for the time being

Here are some more pics of the corals.

Found a 1/4 of the Christmas Monti had briopsis on it so I did a bit of surgery on it

Used to think the silver and orange/green chalice I had was rubbish until I looked at it in closer detail and found a great appreciation for them

I agree. A good example is the YouTuber reefbum who a year ago promoted dosing stump remover directly into his tank for coral health to raise nitrates and #yolo a month or two after his tank was rekt. Everything is going super well thus far; diatom bloom has subsided now and all the SPS and LOSS corals are growing well. Have added a lot more corals and some cucumbers, urchin and a nice clam. Will post some progress pics in a couple weeks [emoji3]

As soon as I put a cucumber in my tank he spat his guts all over the tank. Was not impressed

I put a tiger tail (cucumber) the tank, haven't seen him once. Put a normal black sausage one and he just cleans sand all day [emoji3]

I haven't seen mine since day one, I'm not sure if he's still alive. I brought a sea urchin (ernie) and he's the bomb, always in sight moving all over the tank plus that rubbing together thing they do with their spines,it looks like he's cleaning them. He's just great to watch.
