It's Just a Tank

[Goaway]

Moved my oldest goni from glass. If she don't like her new spot, I'll put her back. She's gotten huge! Had her for over 4 years. She's been through a lot.
Clowns hate me. Oh well.

Moved trachy, tired of the shroom and tracky trying to kill each other.

Impulse buy. Wrasse decided to give her a sand bath.

That is pancake. My overly large trachy. When shes not trying to kill mushrooms, or eat them. That thing is the size of a dinner plate

Wow! Beautiful piece. I'm with @JoJosReef though, and also thought it was a meat.

A little before August 21st of 2021.
Less than an inch.

Trachy!? And I thought it was an acantho. For shame!

Trachy!? And I thought it was an acantho. For shame!

Had a few of us fooled. Not all of em fold or have multiple mouths. I keep looking to see if i can ever find a different colored one.

On the darker side... my clows had eggs and im not equipped to help raise them

So after some reading. My impuske buy works out. They live on sand beds and have been known to survive being burried in sand. From what others have said. The wrasse wont bother it with sand baths after all.

Gotta clean up all that monti stuff...

 

[Goaway]

No pics right now, sometime later.

need calcium, ph and new alk test kit. Sometime this weekend.
For now,
Phosphates .05, Alk 8.6. nitrates 5, magnesium 1360-1380, calc ??, ph ??
This is what impulse buying does, you skip out on tests and get a coral... That's me...

Got AFR dosing at 100m a day. High isn't it?
Was doing 80 per day, alk dropped from 10.2 to 8.6 in 1 night.
I am also currently dosing diy ammonium chloride. Nitrates bottomed out. Phosphates are low yet still. 30ml solution throughout the day. 10ml in morning, after lunch and before lights out.

This has brought nitrates up from 0 to 5 according to salifert test. I stopped dosing the neonitro because I ran out. I don't have a calcium test kit to see where those numbers are at.

As for the dinos, the texture of the slim looks like its breaking down. I haven't syphoned them out for a few days, time to go in and get the rest of what I can see out. They have not grow in number, but are declining.

I will take pics before I do. As the snot looks in poor health and has been declining.

 

[Goaway]

So... pictures of some snot. Came off with ease, and cyano is now blooming. Was expected.

Coral fight, the tree kept wilting to cover the trachy. I should have taken other pics to show how corals too can be jurks



Cleaned up and moved some stuff. I wont be getting another ribbon eel. So...
Tried to get pucs to show the size of the trachy. The wrasse are over 4" total length.

The wrasse are very happy with rock arrangement. Also, chrysus is eating the clown eggs...

 

[Goaway]

Everybody had to eat this morning. Hammer is intent to kill the shroom.
Eli has been investigating the k ew rock arrangement. Dinos are spotty, a spit here, a spot there. Manually removing after everyones done getting their food down.
You wouldn't believe how quick these mussas get a pile of mysis gulped down.





I want more plate coral. The one i have has eaten once per day. Whatever food falls on it. Wrasse wont even try to steal from it.


Eli stole the trachys breakfast. I wish i got that on camera...

Anyhow, when i first moved the trachy, i picked her up wrong and pinched her left side. Shes recovering thankfully.
