2 Koralia Nano 425
DFS Filter (carbon, floss, purigen)
Coralife Temp probe
Eheim 75w

Inhabitants-
Marjani & Newguy (still he isn't named; got him after original male died) occys; About a year old; I think they're paired, they do everything together. lol
Thing 2 (Thing 1 recently died after about 7 months or 8 of having him)- Dwarf Zebra hermit
Boo- pink clown goby
Various snails, limpets
Condy anemones (2) for now, hoping they don't eat or kill any fish or coral.. they're brand new to the tank, if they dont work have other reefers who may take them

RIP Sherman the brittle & Thing 1

A mushroom, and one baby mushroom somewhere... hermit un-glued it..
Various zoas and palys
Bivalve HH

That's about it. Finally got a RODI unit so hoping things go well and cheaper with the tank, was |--| close to tearing it down recently. Was NR member... wasn't for me, hoping r2r is better. :llama:

Welcome Tulipgirl,

Welcome and good luck. Lots of good info here if you need any help.:bigsmile:

Thanks larangcon; Yes I was a member for nr for the life of my tank, even with the thought of it, they had good info there too! Trying to get used to this forum compared to there, haha.

Here are some photos.

A new zoa, has some whammin' watermelons on it.

Grim reapers, another of my newer purchases.

FTS, sorry for reflection, and the two nems are in each of the front corners, just not in this photo. Things have also moved around (corals) but the rock scape and all is how it is now yet.

tulipgirl · Mar 29, 2013

Yeah somehow most things tend to do well in my tank with all it's been through, don't know how. It's going to be 9 months old 5 days, woot! Ha.

Thanks, I'm glad to be here. So far it seems much more my style.

Thank you very much. I'm a little OCD, so it seems really disorganized to me, and I don't love the scape ha ha. Waiting until I can get a 40b to change the scape..

Your tank is looking good, Welcome to R2R!!!

ZR440 · Mar 31, 2013

Awesome!

Thanks both of you! I had buyers remorse with the nems, but i feel so much better now, was worried they would eat my tiny clown goby, or kill some coral, but even when they were by other coral, the other coral didn't look injured, so they must just decide when they would like to sting. The one that is going to a fellow reefers tank (1 is enough for me! lol) i got to foot in a shell, and its been there 2 days or so, hasn't moved so must feel safe there! The other, the one im keeping is transparent, so ive been feeding it shrimp pellets (the bigger ones) so it will color up more. It looks healthy minus the coloration. I'm still afraid to touch them, the lady at petco (yes i got them there, lol) just grabbed them with her hand!!!
