Yes! Cage is effective. Put the one on the other Nero later that day. No problems, much better flow. Hooray.

Today a small coral order & my reeftopia order of peppermints, snails, and sponges.

Let me know how you like them.

@danieyella I know you have had a few different experiences with lids. What do you recommend? I’m not so concerned about turn around time as I am quality. My canopy keeps getting mildew on the inside and I want to keep canopy lid open but don’t want fish to jump out.

Clearview! They're the ones I went with for my peninsula lid, and I just ordered a new lid from them for my cube.

6 peppermint shrimp added to the tank.

Here are the sponges

Wow!

 

[danieyella]

And then some updates from the peninsula. Yes there are some skeletons, I'm aware

I love that orange sponge! Is it photo-sensitive or can it be out in the display in regular lighting levels?

Better in the lower light areas of a typical tank. It's a deep water species. This tank doesn't have really elevated par in general so I'm hoping it'll be fine there - if not I'll move it to the back.

My scopas seems to have claimed the new sinularia as hers.

Super zoomed no filter photo from the couch while I read.

What's that yellow sponge called? From reeftopia?

It's an orange tree sponge species of Amphimedon according to the site

Aiptasia in the back of the tank might have been eaten?!

Still seeing all the front ones, but progress - I think!!

Gotta figure out what this weird goopy stuff is... it's all mixed in with the algae.

Got a pic ?

 

[danieyella]

Got a pic ?

Of the slime? Give me a few... I can take one of some of it in the tank, don't have time to pull it out before work today though.

I'm holding out hope that when I get the UV bulb replaced (I think it comes Monday?) that will help eradicate it in conjunction with the manual pulls I've been doing and the water changes.

 

[danieyella]

Got a pic ?

And then just an algae patch for comparison

 

[fishguy242]

Hopefully the combo of UV and more flow will help it disappear.

That's my hope as well. Before the addition of flow it was tighter little goops. With the addition of flow it has gotten stringier and I don't know if it's the flow trying to blow it off and it holding firm or what. We'll see....
