Additional Aquarium Information

What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
Good morning Tom!

less expensive than the elephant and civet coffee beans as the manatee intestinal tract is extremely short for it’s size and after eating the coffee beans,they have bowl movements rather quickly.

I love it there personally. If it's too close to the glass once it extends to full size, you can determine if you want a little more space between it and the glass or not.
It's hard to picture ot in a better spot honestly. Beautiful!

Makes sense. I do have some room to move my Zoa rock back and move it away from the glass if it puffs up and gets to close to the glass. That being said I will probably wait & see and will add updated photos when its more puffy.
 
Alright. If it looks a little upset I did do a little short dip, but here is a photo of the bad boi with an orange lens. If I should elevate it further from the sand bed or move it from the corner let me know. I know @kingranch2003 knows a lot more about scolys than I do.

These are very pretty , I got to get a couple of them .
 
Shoutout to @Corals Depot btw as well, I have ordered from multiple people online before and I just wanted to say they packed the Scoly so well. Even if it was just for a giveaway piece I honestly really appreciated the care they put into wrapping the box and making sure it was safe for travel (including double bags heat pack etc.)
 
Not on my watch!

That's sick brother!! Nice score
 
Alright. I might get a chemicals or something to help with p04.
Water changes and good husbandry trump adding chemicals to the tank brother
 
Booyah!


Actually, they are looking for Manatee bean catchers, right now. I submitted you for the job. You know, get you out of that poopoo weather and into some real poopoo.


So, you're saying you know a guy? I know a number of guys but my guys are probably very different from your guys.


"Nothing but love"... yeah, right. I see where all your love goes.


Never a more deserving person.
Brother.. your comments!! Epic!! 🤣

That's good business, especially on a freebie. I will definitely consider them for future purchases
