Gator's RSM130D new build

[JeffB1961]

Hi All... Looking for some feedback and recommendations.

RSM130D ( 29 gallons in show tank 34 gallons total water ) running 4 months

Couple of pictures of items I'm added in the last month.

Jealous of all the amazing looking tanks but know they don't happen overnight ( been keeping FOWLR for 20 years )

Only thing I actually know the name of is the Condy ( finicky and maybe going back to LFS ) and the GakGak Goni ( that's what they called it )...

Looking to add maybe Frogspawn or Hammer for some movement... Maybe a mushroom or something for ground cover... Maybe a Orange Sun Goni or a Daisy Bright Beauty Tubastraea...

What do you guys think or would recommend?

Tank is really coming along! Thanks for sharing. I think what you planned with some Euphyllia and the other choices sounds great.

If you're planning on keeping nems in the tank, you want to consider getting a some type nem guard for those powerheads before they walk into it (sponge, after-market plastic guards, or even panty hose - being serious!). A nem walking into a powerhead has the potential to really foul up a tank, not just from decay, but from all the floating nematocysts that will be floating around in the chopped up bits of tentacle still ready to sting things it touches. Also, don't expect that condy to stay in that basket for long; its preference is to have it's foot buried in a rock crevice or in sand.

Thanks Randy. For the last 4 weeks it was connected to a rock in the lower middle. For some reason it started moving ( nothing out of the normal going on i.e. weekly 4 gallon water change, small piece of shrimp every 3 days etc ) and got real close to the wavemaker so as a short term solution put it in the basket. 24 hours later overnight he moved again... took the advice and put a small piece of floss around it until the guards show up... Thanks again!
