Chestnut probably.
Maybe.
Looks about right.

Just looked in the 20 gallon and caught the male Convict Cichlid flaring. I don't see any nest yet but I'm guessing it's coming soon. The female's side is super gold so she's ready but the bigger male is more interested in chasing the smaller male and strutting than actually mating.

Alright! My first victim in the trap. One of my Scarlett Reef hermits wandered in so into the 125 he went.

That's what the female thinks. The male is more interested in showing off to the other male.

Alk - 6.7
Mag - 975
Cal - 360
Not sure how everything got so low, I only have 4 small frags in the tank. I'm going to need to test more frequently. Added some calcium, magnesium, and alkalinity. I'll check again in the evening hopefully to see where we're sitting. I may need a little more magnesium and possibly some more alkalinity. I added Reef Complete which is supposed to have Cal, Mag, and Strontium and also bring up alkalinity. I've got cal, mag, Strontium, and alkalinity all as separate additives as well so I can adjust individually as needed.

I found one tiny speck of what may be Coralline but not enough to deplete the levels. It might just be the rock I started with settling in... Who knows. I'll just keep my eyes on it, especially with the POTO corals coming tomorrow.
My salinity is staying right at 1.025.
Also, my cleaner Goby (haven't seen it since I put him in) came out to say hi today and my wrasse keeps swimming around in open water and coming over to make eye contact with me. It seems like the fish are getting settled and happy. Too bad it's almost time to mess with that and add fish...

CoralLife Marine Salt. Getting ready to buy more. I'm probably going back to Instant Ocean Reef Crystals.

Yep. The bucket is almost empty. I think everything was decent but a little low when I first set up the tank. They've gone down some but I'm also not doing water changes frequently. I do think that the salt has less cal/mag than other brands for sure. I got it for $18 for a 5 gallon bucket otherwise I wouldn't have.
With that price, you could afford to cut it with black bucket and come out even.

Ok, bring on the haters...
I'm thinking realllllly hard about ordering a rabbitfish. Not just any old Rabbitfish though, a Biota Golden Lined Rabbitfish. They say 6 foot tanks are good for them. I know I may run into trouble down the road and have to re-home it but...
