The truth is out there! I hope they don’t bring the smoking man.
 
Guys I think I have an aiptasia invasion but I can't get a good picture to show you guys. It looks like the ones I had on that stupid rock that my leather coral was on but they don't have the stem part just the top part. I seen some the other day on the glass but I thought it was algea so I scrubbed it off which was a bad idea if it's Aiptasia. Now I have a bunch on the back glass and some on the front glass. I am thinking about getting a filefish not just for them but I think they are neat looking. Bad idea or good?
yes I got a few now too...probably from this frag I got weeks ago...was gonna do shrimp but now thinking CopperBand Butterfly
 
The little tank is still a bit cloudy even though I put the carbon in. Should I do another water change?
hey reef devils, I been away for a while and I know everyone here has for sure given you great advice, I don't have time to play 50 pages read catch up...can you tell me in short whats the issue, so I may offer some fixes...
 
people watching is fun to do
yes...I just can't get over this wear PJ and furry animal pocketbooks etc to the mall or in public...seems there are only a few really rare and worth looking at who wear red bottom shoes and are classy....
 
Did anyone experience anything weird happen to there clocks last night?
funny you say that... my lights in the tank didn't go on - timed for 8am. Everything else went on. it was almost like it thought it was a different time.
