First poster in PNW forum?

I’m shocked there is not more here. What’s the newest addition to everybody’s tank?
Haven’t put anything new in my tank in a long time except Emerald Crabs, Astraea snails and a fighting conch, none of which make for interesting pictures. I’m actually afraid of upsetting the balance with any new fish :)
I’m boring.
 
This went in yesterday. I gave the one in my avatar to my mom years ago and finally got another.

What he said. The thing is that clean up crews are this sruoid vicious cycle that begginers get sucked into.

Yeah..but a clean up crew first..what are they going to eat? Your tank gets all this alage in it.. you buy a huge CUC. They clean it up and die..thereby releasing all the nutrients..and you get algae.. and well, you get the picture.

A couple turbo snails, some ceriths, maybe one hermit crab, and one or two fighting conks. Or helmet conks.. whatever, they wander through the samd bed and are actually really cool. They have this little snorkle like trunk that they extend out of the sand.
Hi new here but I have some Nassarius Snails they are cool

Hello!

I am on Bainbridge Island. So far I have a few Grainyhand hermits, barnacles, shrimp, a Tidepool sculpin, a clam. I am in the process of building a 36 gallon to hopefully bring in a Grunt sculpin (Rhamphocottus richardsonii), anemones (Corynactis californica, Anthopleura artemisia) and sea urchins (Strongylocentrotus droebachiensis).

How about you?

So how was the coral farmers market i missed? Lol
D
It was good for the 1st after covid lol met up with @BighohoReef and had a magnificent day!

Calikid and the other large vendor backed out last minute but it was good to see the locals.

Got a yammer from unrivaled, a fire bounce shroom and master torch from Natalia, and a 3 head torch from seaking.

All in all a good day!
