All done! I ran out of velcros so wire management will need to wait. When I’m bored again, I might hook up another MP40 but perhaps too much flow for the nems & mushrooms? Considering how we started, I’m happy with the result.

Thanks — as you know, it’s trivial but very time consuming. I’m OCD so I’ve mounted that board 3 times since I got tired (ok, lazy) and didn’t get a level! lol

How is yours coming along?

Have some prazi resistant flukes right now which is a pain as I need to redose prazi every time I add in fish to help them overcome it. Acros are encrusting. Need to get a new pump for my bacteria reactor and another light. Pushing along though.

Bummer man - how can you tell?

I got a Koi Tang over the weekend and did Prazi bath for 90min as a precaution.

Love it what acros do you have?
Thanks — various old-school acros: TSA Fruity Pebbles, Bill Murray, PC Rainbow/Superman, ORAs, WWC, etc. My fav: Green Slimer — that guy can grow into trees! lol

Amazing, I have some of those as well. Let me know if you’re ever selling some frags or anything.

I haven’t made a dollar with this hobby — so willing to trade for more torches & hammers. And yes — zoas since I’m building a zoas garden…for my wife. I hate zoas, btw! lol

You’re more than welcome to swing by — I need help tidying up the fish room! :)

Frag tank challenges - one of my zoas colonies won’t open but it did before inside a mushroom cage. Therefore, I suspect the two lemonpeel angels have gone roque and nipping & eating my corals! Well, off they went down to the sump with the butterfly to see if things improve soon.

Yes - I’ve gone full circle: fish, zoas, mushrooms, hammers, torches, clams, anemones, SPS, and back again. :)

Sadly, now I can’t even grow zoas and it’s rather embarrassing to downright frustrating! Hope removing these predators will help…

I can give you as many as you need from this one colony I have until you figure it out if you need.

It’s all good man. Appreciate the kind thoughts. My NO3 is high so perhaps if that’s reduced, things will be better. Will see…
