ahh, congrats!! :) Open house will be nice :) if we happen to go back and take some letters, maybe will PM u to see if you around.

As for the glass, i know which one... you may want to install small exhaust if need to extract more hot air out.. Good also, can dry clothes faster! :)

Welcome welcome.

Just realised my phosphate reactor was not working. Suspect been like that for a few weeks already.

A sponge inside calcified and blocked water flow.

That could be one reason for the algae.

Fixed liao so let's see.

BTW, think PDT is eating my hair algae. Cleared up a lot overnight and he's still going at it.

Beautiful, love the sps and it has plenty of room to grow.. can add a couple of fishes too if you wish

Yes plan to add some more fishes:

Bartlett school - Their pink/yellow compliments the peachy dispar and read that these 2 types coexist in the wild together.

Mitratus Butterfly Pair

Potter's or Coral Beauty - if can find a strong one to hold its own against Flame

Emperor Angel - once my still a bit shy majestic fully settles down

Mystery Wrasse - Might need one more wrasse to control SPS pest

Red Hawkfish

4 more Fire shrimp - 4 in tank now and spawned recently. Fishes enjoyed the buffet so let's have more!

Coral beauty more common and hardy... Potteri usually dont do well in captivity... but very nice.. Golden also dont do well as dont feed well and hides a lot :) If you wanna spend a little, try joculator! :)

Wrasses are good, mystery wrasse, leopard wrasse or the fairy wrasses all very nice :)

Thanks mrnano, wilson and desi.

A few more pics for you.

Radioactive 'something' frag

20c5696b.jpg

Purple Valida frag

fb4a8094.jpg

Radioactive Pocci frag

d46a0b13.jpg

Not sure name. 6 inches wide colony that's growing. "Merged" with its neighbour that's similar but of table structure.

Surprised to discover it came with a baby fish! Around 3 months already and the fish still hiding inside and growing in size. Looks like goby or hawkfish and stays inside all the time.

a992e9b5.jpg

True Octo with transparent tentacles. One purple tentacle and the rest all green

feb7d1d9.jpg

And a more colour-correct FTS. Right side of tank can use a few more tabling SPS and 5 more colonies in mid-section

Impressive SPS husbandry bro, to note that the WS colonies and the frags color has maintain till now shows that you have a good water quality :welldone:

Let's see how it goes from here as you will be entering a constant battle with feeding your fish (now that you are considering adding more) versus low nutrient water quality :whistle

Btw it's Radioactive Birdnest frag i think :upsidedown:

Treat others the way you wanna be treated...

Actually, it's an a.sameonsis. It's a staple coral in Walt Smith SPS shipments.
