So 6 months of use and the lenses on the Hydra 32 have melted completely under the UV and the Hydra 64s have started. AI customer service was quick responding and I got all 10 replacement lenses sent already. Swapped out the 32 this morning. The new lenses have 1 different # on them so I’m hopeful that they are made of a slight different material and will last longer but only time will tell.

I will say I was overdriving the UV at 130% till the February freeze and I believe that had something to do with it.

Got my last SpS frags in. I am officially out of room for acro frags. Lol
Time to let the tank mature. I have grown to really like the side view look of this rock scape since I removed the big rock.

Well drama underwater. Clownfish have snapped into super territorial mode which usually means there will be eggs soon. Unfortunately they have targeted the rhomboids and chased them all non stop yesterday. Sadly the smallest female one found the only gap in the top and ended up on the floor. The others have been corralled into an acclimation box and still the clowns won’t let up. Bummer

Sorry to hear that...and that's why after my last pair of clowns I had in my last 130g I chose not to put any in my 105.4.

Every pair I've had always started spawning and trouble ensued. If it were me I'd keep the wrasses.

I’m thinking on moving the clowns to my small side tank that had my angler in it. They can rule that tank with no issues. Maybe get them a Nem.
