Life is super busy but great. Tank is doing okay. Puffer didn't seem to make it, might have jumped the gun on a new fish earlier then I should have, so that is sad. The tank still seems like it has new tank syndromes with some different algaes that have popped up. I am having to clean the glass everyday. As for the coral, the handful of anemones that survived are reverse bleaching and seem to be making a comeback. I have been replacing rock to get rid of some of the polyps that survived. I really hate them. It's nice to be able to get rid of all the nasty coral I didn't like. I'll get there eventually.

Few nems making a recovery.

Had a surprise snap yesterday and today. Although I can't see it, I can hear it.

Its my pistol shrimp.

It survived the whole ordeal for the last few months. Crazy.

 

[themcnertney]

Speaking of shrimp, picked up this little guy about two weeks ago. Haven’t seen it till today.

Thank you for the awesome words. Its def a rollercoaster of a ride. You are right on the lights. All thread through the heat sinks and held on by nuts. Seems to work well.

Boy, the wild ride this tank has had. One of my favorite images of this tank was the top downs of that monti with that light acropora growing around the monti.

Congrats on your beautiful baby girl.

Making some progress I suppose.
