Today we welcome a new member. A replacement cleaner shrimp. Un named so far. To replace Jacquees 3+ year old buddy.

Picked up assorted monti caps again now that things are stable. A baby ricordia, and a cyphastrea that's way under colored I think jingle bells?

Still waiting on a lemon peel tang, some anthias, yellow coris, and others...

They had yellow coris not through qt yet. Known worms. Prazi suggested at home. Might go back in a couple weeks and see if he's still there.

They wouldn't reserve him for me unfortunately. Dunno why.

Negative, but ever since I got all the algae off the bottom the snails cleaned the back wall entirely!

Let's go!! I definitely missed details on this. So you don't have to repeat for me...

But I'm interested size etc. I just played like I knew what was going on in person lol...

I can barely keep straight what I'm doing. It's a real problem

Played around in my sheet for logging test results. Nitrate has come down a decent amount naturally. Phosphate is holding pretty good. Calcium back in regular range. Corals are showing it. Keep up the good work and in a couple months we might be back to where we were.



Update on zoa rock, razored off around the plugs of Rasta and AOI to keep back the Fire and Ice. Will keep eye on it and might need to be more drastic next time (chisel), but now you can at least see them shine through.
