4’x2’x2’ build… The Dragons’ Forest

[Slocke]

He still chills around the tank
This photo pretty much explains him, always in plain sight but still mysterious.

Now that's a good photo!!

Since I did say I’d get an FTS out… Here you go!
Again, this FTS is slightly more out dated unfortunately.

Amazing how large that radiant has become.

Amazing how large that radiant has become.

That radiant is unusually large and must be pushing the 5 inch range. He’s a stunning male and seems to be boss of the gang still. We’ll see how long that lasts once the green beast re-emerges from the sand (He’s been missing for 3ish days now so I feel he’s finishing the transition).

Look whose out and with less green
It’s slowly becoming a tint of green instead of that bright green juveniles are known for

 

[i cant think]

Just to show the difference, here’s the chloropterus before the transition around January 16th 22.

Well here’s a Mushroom update! He’s back out and happy again… Although he’s round the back and I may end up having to trade him on.

Unfortunately the two Acros in the tank have had a fast decline and I now no longer have a Red Planet and my Miyagi Tort is slowly declining.
I believe this was due to the magnets failing and essentially rusting, releasing more harmful metals into the water which harm Acropora.

The only other coral that has been declining is my Lobophytum however I can’t figure out why as my other two frags of Lobophytum are doing just fine. I did give him a dip not too long ago and found a bit of string round the base so cut that however he hasn’t really improved since.

Feeding my brittles is always fun and also I love the little net hands of my porcelain crab as it snags food in the water column.

Is that a sally lightfoot? I haven't seen mine in a while and suspect the hawkfish is why.

Yep! This guy is a sally light foot male. I hadn’t seen one in years until this guy showed up at my LFS. He was the most attractive due to that green band being so bright.

I liked mine. Hope it's still kicking.

I love porcelain crabs, if I can get a few more Mini Maxi’s I may grab a pair.

I don't have crabs.

I nearly didn’t have a crab in my nano… Longstory short I accidentally threw it behind the tank and thought i had lost it. I didn’t luckily and he’s now in the tank chilling around.

There are better times to practice your cricket throw.
