Scraped the glass for the first and discovered the uglies and coraline

the pectina is growing and healing.
I ordered the top off pump and stuff this weekend. Skimmer is online pulling and I changed out the socks, moved and glued all the zoas. Just need to cheer up the trachy and all would be well. Itching for fish and a few more corals.
See ya

Short update, Working on the top-off system, I built a small electric box with a dc PS to handle float-sw and a relay for the mix station, also one for the doser. I grabbed another tunze 3155, I gave my last one to a needy reefer thinking I would build a fancy thing but soon realized you cant build a better mouse trap...I should know better ;Wacky
Working on a breakout box for the cabinet to mix-station interlocks. pics later

Coral warfare? I came home to this last night. The lobo has not been happy, I bumped up the flow and thought that was the issue, now I see this. That Yuma detached yesterday, so now I think something may be snacking on the lobo?
Can Yuma's sting other corals? The last pic is another one hitchhiking on a snail.

@siggy I have found your thread and bring the dark side with me.

Loving the tank so far Siggy

So how will your RODI mix station be automated?

Auto water change, mixing, floats, all the norms, I have a power bar for the ghl and I would like to have a temp and salinity probe in the mix tank. Will see where this goes?

Well I have had my eye on these for a while now and this one has been on the website for weeks but was marked sold out

so today I see the price was reduced to $69 and available so I jumped on it. I like the color and the looks. Kinda between a bower and acan or enchinata. Speaking of which

who says you have to Spend $$$$$$$$ for color

of course he needs company for the ride

Yes sir, I see they have a live sale this weekend, and I am jonesing for some sps. I hate paying shipping, so I check in for a colony or two to get the free shipping. Found everything on my list Echinata was on the short list too, I just wanted something colorful and bingo both qualify. I grabbed 10 frags so now no fighting over scraps this weekend.

;Hilarious

I had this in the cart first but went the frag route. The little one I have now has yet to inflate? I moved him three times
not really sure what's up, My lobo's are busting at the seams

........ @uniquecorals if anyone is interested

Put it close to the lobo, looks like a good spot and it might help.....

No room over there

Would they get along? I moved it from the end of the tank to a little cove.

My 2 trachys touch all the time, they sulk if they move themselves apart.... I would believe that a lobo and a trachy should be fine together.

As you know by now, @siggy , I went missing for a bit. Fortunately, I was found by a pack of rabid dogs and nursed back to health. Happy to be back and not surprised to see things going along nicely for you!
