Tank revival is moving a long.

I do have some Kenya tree regrowth from where I ripped some of them off which is actually really amazing since the tissue it’s growing back from is tiny. Once they are bigger I’ll remove again hopefully some of the new coral will over take them.

I did another reaquascape (pictures below) looks similar to how it was in the last post but I flipped the right side sort of around and now have the swim through cave in the front right. The cave on the left sort of changed angles. It works there is a dead spot on both the back corners but I’ve been sort of flushing it out so it’s working ok.

I did order some new coral so now there are multiple Goniporas, some Duncan’s and hammers. All of it came from Aqua SD all healthy and looking good.

I ordered a Biota Mandarin she’s in there somewhere. They come so tiny and cute! Since this tank had just been sitting and running with no fish it is absolutely full of pods.

On order from ORA is a Tiger Goby and a Shark nose Goby. They were delayed in shipping because the tiger gobies weren’t quite ready but they will be fun additions. I know they are short lived but I loved the personality on the shark nose gobies I had in the past.

Also on order are an Orange Spot Blenny, a wheelers shrimp goby, and a Citrinis Clown Goby. These are being quarantined by Ocean Devotion LA I was super excited to find them. I’ll probably order all the rest of my fish from them as well. I don’t have time with two kids to do it my self.

I have a Royal Gamma and a Possum Wrasse that will come in once all the little gobies and blenny get settled. Still playing with what other fish to put in the tank.

Some quick tank shots.
Added a little bit to the aquascape.

Added my Royal Gramma and my Possum Wrasse to this tank. They look huge in here after them living for so long in my 220. They’re my oldest fish both being about 9 years old.
