Additional Aquarium Information

What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
Thanks for asking Amanda! The symptoms of the parasite are gone! I’m just working on increasing my strength, stamina and putting some weight back on. Dinner was awesome, between my mother, son and myself we finished off almost three pounds, along with roasted carrots and smashed potatoes. I’m slipping, I didn’t take or post a final picture. 😢
Just glad they were able to get rid of it. And the rest will happen
 
He is adorable. I might need one. Will he munch on croceas?
No, totally reef safe it will just munch on algae all day until it’s little belly is big and round.
 
Hey all! I'm at an out-of-state conference this week so expect hit or miss check-ins. Yesterday was supposed to be a play day for me and my wife but instead I was parked at O'Reilly's pulling spark plugs and coils... Still got a misfire. It'll have to wait until I'm home to address.
 
He is adorable. I might need one. Will he munch on croceas?
Nope! I wouldn't worry about that at all. They will nip at algae and readily accept pellets and frozen. They're very easy to.please and their personalities are amazing!
 
Does anyone have a good source for rock flower anemones? Id prefer to pick my own colors, but would like to hear of others' experiences
I do have one that I’ve had for like ever and there are easy to keep . Mines been thru power outages ,tank changes , and basically any type of diversity in this hobby and came out in great shape and is still pretty 😍. He’s only moved one since I’ve had him and that was because of sponge attack lol !.
