Hmm got the controller programed it's running everything I need it to for now. Can't get the wifi deal setup. I'm not that computer literate apparently. Got one of my geek friends coming tomorrow though. Lol

Well I lost my clown trigger. He gone. Put that cleaner shrimp in the tank and the clown laid there and let the shrimp pull so much off him I think it killed him. Dumb. No other explanation.

What he had killed him, not the shrimp. It gets into the gills.

Amen!! And a ladder



as someone with a similar sized tank i suggest tongs to move things(ones with rubber grip tips so as not to damage corals) im 6'1" and long arms. Even i have trouble reaching the bottom without a grabber of sorts

but otherwise cool tank !

Probably. RM I think my purple tang brought something with him that got on the trigger and the rabbit fish. Rabbit has some clear looking dots on him. Hoping he will get cleaned up and healthy. Tang had a couple white tiny spots which have gone away. Idk.

I'm doing some thinking but in preparation for coral and the aqua scape. Since its still just a fowlr should I do some treatments? Maybe hit it with copper kill any ich. Or peroxide or..... anything just to kill off anything I might not want in the tank? I have a few apistasia in there still that haven't gotten eaten by my peppermint shrimp. Idk. I finally got enough lighting that it seems coraline algae is starting to take hold. My lighting sucked so bad last year I just had diatoms it seemed.

I'm supposed to have 100 lbs of rock coming from a buddy that torn down his tank this weekend. Nice donation. He moved across country and it's been sitting in buckets for a few weeks gonna have to clean that stuff up somehow and get this tank aqua scaped maybe in the next 2 weeks.
