And the odd corner today appears to be a large purple sponge?

What are these guys? I have seen them for a while, but best photos of them so far...

Interesting critters; they appear to be a tube worm. The one on the left looks bivalve, but they are obviously the same...I'd err tube worm.

And the odd corner tonight is named, starfish island...

Love those micro brittles filtering the water!

The Wrasse is doing better. Still "taking breaks" throughout the day, but much livelier and eating better. I am cautiously optimistic that he will pull through.

 

[jabberwock]

I am really happy to report that the wrasse seems to have made a full recovery! He is even back to cavorting with little blue.

And the odd corner...

Close up of "the tuba"

Now it seems the wrasse has attempted to floss...
I am not overly concerned as I am 99% sure this is some algae, and will hopefully work itself out. He is still eating and breathing fine, and swimming around la di dah.

Nothing like keeping it interesting...

 

[jabberwock]

After a week away from the tank, the "floss" indeed worked itself out. I was greeted by a good bit of glass algae... The clear bits are where the limpets have grazed.

I scraped the glass, and an hour later went back to check on things, and I was like, "Why is the tank so cloudy?" Turns out the limpets were feeling frisky. This is newly observed behavior.

I thought my urchin was eating my Favia, but I moved it to the bottom of the tank and it is doing better. Spilling over the frag plug...

And the odd corner tonight is a newly emerged feather duster... About the size of a dime.

The Wrasse was feeling a little low this morning, but seems to have bounced back quickly.

The odd corner today is a pistol shrimp molt.

Greater Kudu is a bucket list hunt for me...

Today's odd corner made me laugh out loud. My wife asked, "But is it safe?"

Greater Kudu is a bucket list hunt for me...

Yeah they're certainly majestic.
I was going to ask if you're a rugby fan, with the mentions of "sin bin" in your thread =D

Sin Bin is also an ice hockey reference. That's where I get it from...

 

[jabberwock]

Rugby is great, I like Footy as well, but we don't get a lot of coverage over here.

Hurling is the best I think.

 

[jabberwock]

New star of the show. Been 5 days in the tank. I see him eating. He moves around good. The YWG does try to hassle him a bit, but mostly just show.

He likes mushrooms, limpets, favias, and long walks at sunset with little blue...

Note the upstaged porcelain crab in the background.

Did you QT or buy QTd? The fish looks very healthy.

Virgin Nerite Snail

Always tough to get a shot of these two together.

And the odd corner is the purple sponge...
