I repacked all my reactors today.
And finished my 40 breeder sump. I'm thinking of making a pod motel stack. To increase reproduction.

Cleaned the glass, saved a cyphastria from certain doom at the tentacles of a chalice and a Favia. That's all.

Typically, I just feed fish and look at my tank on a daily basis. I try to minimize the work I have to put into it.

btw...what is a pod stack? I kinda figured pods would reproduce in sumps and in live rock, without need for anything else, but maybe more is better.

Added a phosban reactor, removed an unusual kole tang that harassed several fish to their demise. Added a beautiful true Hawaiian flame angel. Red goniopora, alveopora, couple small acro frags and a colony. Watermelon chalice, and placed an order from Jason fox. Good day.

I did a 20 gallon water change, soaked my skimmer pump in vinegar and stared at my display for almost 2 hours.

Also, I got a couple of jawfish. They're pretty cool. One built a burrow right in front.

My orange prawn Randall's goby built a burrow right in front on my 72. So cool to watch him and the tiger shrimp interact. In the other hand my awesome pair of helfrichi fire fish only dash out of the rock a couple seconds a day. Wishing I had put them in the 28 nano.

Those firefish are really impressive. They're one of my favorites.

Goby shrimp pairs probably are my favorite though.

It's from Ora I think. Just bought a second frag from live aquaria because I like it so much. It will be a fixture from the bottom-middle of my tank. Acros and montis at the top, chalices below that then the goniopora and frogspawn followed by zoas and ricordeas and whatever else on the bottom.

Decided that after the Holidays I'm going to sell off everything that I have!

Get ready, lots of good stuff to come!

Also, I'm making more water for another water change but I likely won't get to it before Christmas. Boo.

Anyone else's power go out because of the wind? Mine did last night but not for very long. I fumbled around for a lighter to light some candles and before I even got to light one the power came back on. It was a close one.

Yeah things have gotten too busy for me to keep up with my tanks so I decided to sell off everything, my frag tank too. It is way over grown! Some of the frags are noe full colonies and the zoas have filled up about half of it.

The frag tank is a 20 long, lighted by a 175 MH with T-5 actinitics.It has a dual Ranco controller, auto top off etc. It has been quote a grow tank over the years. Many of you have frags from that tank.
After the first of the year I will post some pictures of both of my systems. I've always been a person for automation, both tanks are designed to be automated since I was traveling for business for over 120 days a year.
