Thanks @Nman , you changed your avatar! Everything good? I haven’t seen you on the forum in a
Your tank looks good that’s what you get when you come from old school . Haven’t been on for a good bit it’s harder than I thought you know what I mean. Had a very good friend over in the uk talking sense into me but messed it up after I said something I didn’t mean big loss So yes I am still an idiot. So tonight full throttle as much drink as possible hopefully won’t no my name in the next couple of hours. Then tomorrow I will need a big water change for my screaming liver and kidneys. Hope you and your family are keeping well. Your reef looks great top job keep it up. Chiming out for now

sorry, I forgot. yes, "Oliver" the Tuxedo is in there too. He's been in there almost since the start. Probably a month after. That guy is indestructible. So many times I did a water change and didn't realize he was at the top of the glass until I siphoned the water out. He does have a pincushion friend too. yeah, it's big for this size but they are all there.
In case anyone is wondering what to get that eats bryopsis and hair algae fast. Bryopsis - get the lettuce nudibranch, some species/variants will eat bryopsis or should I say suck the life/chlorophyll out of it. I had a little one(1 inch) in my biocube and it did a great job, but unfortunately it got too close to the overflow and got sucked in twice. Not so lucky the 2nd time round, minced by the return pump.
LFS had a seahare - that thing is real algae lawnmover! think I will get one that's about 2 inch+ size.

Here’s a pic of the remaining lettuce nudibranch. Laziest/slowest slug I’ve ever seen..but it does eat bryopsis. I had another which had red frills that moved a lot. That one got itself into the overflow and didn’t survive.

Noticing some explosive growth, not sure what is driving it.

Man things have TAKEN OFF! So strange how it seems to happen randomly isn't it? Slow growth... no growth... slow growth... everything DOUBLES in size

Amazing corals and you got most of the fish gang in one shot!

Edit - not helping with my six-line and gramma jealousy lol
It helps when they think they are going to be fed!

You are correct. I did start dosing Tropic Marine Reef snow and Zooton about four weeks ago but only once a week. ?
