Tank has been doing great besides the fact I found red bugs. I'm considering getting some dragon face pipefish to see how they do before I dose interceptor.

Also changed the lame small compact light out to a led one. Not the par38 I want but this will do until then.

awesome setup!

Rookie J · Feb 25, 2014

Giving up. Not quite yet but getting very close. In the last month I've had $500 worth of fish that have died. Nothing has changed either. What bummed me out the most was this.

took out all the lps so i been stocking up on some acros and some collector polyps to fill in the gaps.

also added a ten gallon into the system for baby cuttlefish

Rookie J · Mar 19, 2014

So Im going to try and fish out the strawberry pseudochromis and put it in the small tank since none of the cuttle fish made it. I will be moving the blue dot grouper up to the display. Im still looking for another colorful fish that wont pick on my sps. Any suggestions ?

Rookie J · Apr 1, 2014

Finally got the strawberry pseudo out and into the girlfriends tank. Here is a few updated pictures as well.

Picked up my spectra pure litter meter water changer today. Hopefully my new ro filters come in this week to set the ato up. That way I can do it all this weekend. Also picked up a 105 gallon polyurethane holding tank for the mixed salt.
