Stoney's Fluval Evo 13.5

He done it! I didn't think he would because of his size! But he done it! My pistol shrimp stole my mushroom!

Well then steal it back! You might have to show him who's boss while you're at it.

He put up a fight but I had bigger pinchers! Traded a rock for a rock and put a few more between him and my shroom!

Trying to decide what to do with all these plants growing in my aquarium.... I already have a planted FW aquarium.... Maybe a tang?!?

. Yeah still have have sponge dying off.

 

[stoney7713]

Still trying to figure out what type of coral this is. It's definitely coloring up.

 

[stoney7713]

I've got this one also trying to come back. I think it's a cup coral.

 

[stoney7713]

Really loving the bivalves

Kinda looks baby Bower-ish maybe...

Foxface, Tang, Molly Miller Blenny, Hector's Goby... Turbo Snail?

Thought about transferring over a turbo. Maybe an urchin but afraid he would knock the rocks over. Tailspot blenny is on the stocking list but I don't think he'll take care of the tall greens.

Definitely fleshy. Maybe a rose coral? Going to be cool to watch it color up and grow.

Added a Yasha goby and tiger pistol shrimp to the tank. Pistol shrimp went straight to digging and the goby went straight to jumping.

Finally the goby found the shrimp and moved right in, the shrimp popped once and just stared at his new roommate for about 5 minutes.

I guess they were discussing their relationship because the pistol just went back to husbandry and the goby just kept swimming around him.

Lights out so I'll try and get a pic tomorrow.

I have now 3 Tiger pistol shrimps with a Yasha and yellow watchman goby in my 10g. It worked out well. My pistol shrimps ignore the Yasha but he uses the tunnels. My yellow is more considerate in accompanying the pistol shrimps when they are out. Lol To my surprise, the smaller tg pistol showed up, thought he was taken out when I added him last week and he is doing fine.

That's a lot of snappy's in one tank! LOL

I've been thinking about adding another one, maybe another goby. Fun to watch them and keeps the sand stirred.

 

[stoney7713]

Considering adding a nem, stupid idea I know, hope he stays up top while the shrooms stay low.

 

[Rennurdoar]

I've debated adding one, but then get paranoid something will happen. Then talk myself out of it. I may get one down the road still, but for now I think I'll stick with corals/fish.

That's a nice looking one though!

My 3D printer finally arrived! I got a Creality Ender 5 S1, a bit more than what I wanted to spend but glad I got a CoreXY machine, shouldn't need to get any upgrades soon either.

I've already got a list of things to print too!

Awesome! good move on the core XY!
I'm in the process of upgrading my machines and you saved yourself quite a bit of hassle and time by starting off in a a great place.
Start with PLA till you're comfortable then goto PETG if you think its necessary. now that you have a printer, you'll probably print replacements instead of cleaning stuff...

Cleaning stuff? Who cleans stuff?

Manually leveled the bed and done my first test print. It disappeared....
