From snakes to fish

[MECOMI]

Well moved tanks over the weekend as well as painted a couple rooms safe to say I’m exhausted lol , everything survived the transfer! One anemone is a little beat up but I expected that. Next purchase needs to be a light mount as my old one sadly does not fit the tank. LTA is sooo much more happy in new tank , it’s all by itself and loves the deep sand bed . Tank is cloudy due to sand ( dry 90 lbs) , parameters are pretty much the same due to using old water.

alk 8.9
Ph 8.2
Nitrate 20-30ppm
Phosphate .14ppm
Nitrite 0
Ammonia 0

sold most of my fish , just left with clowns , lawn mower blenny and orchid dottyback. Plan is get a CBB and then a tang or two ,

Phew, moving livestock seems really stressful. Happy to read things went well though!

Oh it definitely ages you Lol. I did lose my only acro frag but it’s ok it was very small and I kinda just tossed it in

Not too much to update , still in process of moving but was able to sneak a tank shot! Glass is very dirty probly due to sand cycling. Tank was cloudy after cleaning it lol

What a great thread! Love the tank before and now that I’m all caught up. Looking forward to the new and larger tank set up.

Thank you! Hoping the new tank is even better, moving tomorrow so I can actually have them to aquascape / mount lights

Hate when they do that!

My "ritteri" also just moved right behind one of the tall pillars.. I can only see it a reflection.

Getting the trim modification done for the lights this weekend?

Aformenttioned clam shell, I’ve heard this really helps with feeding and makes it so other fish cannot steal , already saw him eat the couple feather dusters living on the shell lol

Great news. Sometimes it's easier to address the issue of "why won't this work" than to buy something that will work, and you've got a game changer tool now.

Is the hippo new as well?

All three brand new today! Salfin , blue tang , copperband. Probly be the only new fish for a couple months - wanted algae eater / aptasia eaters but caveat was they had to be pretty and fiancé requested “dory” lol so naturally

Also may have grabbed another anemone at petco , couldn’t say no at 20$. I think it’s an H. Aurora sorry for late pic wil get whites tomorrow
