Today is day 5 of the TTM with the clowns. Yesterday was the first transfer. I’m using a bucket for my second “tank” because I only have one spare aquarium. My uncle has a 20 that he’s giving me but I need to go pick it up. Clowns are doing well. They prefer pellets over frozen mysis.

We named then Han and Leia. It was a family vote with Han and Leia winning due to the Star Wars connection and their “Orange Storm” name. I also wanted a strong female name since the female clowns dominate and not all the Disney princesses my kids were picking fit the requirement.

I’ve screenshot a few corals I’d like to have in The tank one day. Any thoughts on others I should consider?


Oh wait that last one is my kids. Weird how’d that get in there?

Thanks! I feel like it’s just about to take off and I’m excited to see how it looks in 3 months.

My ricordea is doing well. I moved it to the side so I can see it better.

I missed so many posts!! Those stretches are sweet. You diffuse the bars?

We will have to go visit Matt, he has so many rare cool corals.

Nope. Once I got them at the right height they are fine.

Third tank of the TTM and clowns don’t have spots! Two more changes to go.

#FTS from the side. I still need to find something to better hide the light cables. I looked at Menards and they had what I wanted but only black so I’ll look on Amazon.
