I'm able to start adding some coral again! Woot! There are two new additions.. a very nice blue pagoda cup and a blue with green eyes chalice. Of course I can get a good picture of the chalice so sorry for the crappy pics. Enjoy!

Thanks! I forgot to post a picture of my green BTA. It moved to the back of the tank as predicted (my luck as usual) but I can at least see where it is and if it's happy or not.... mostly. It didn't split like the rbta either which is good news for me. Here's to continued good luck with this guy!

Great job makes me want to break out my old 75 in the garage collecting dust.

Thanks! I'm happy with it. I'm ready to get my purple tang though! Waiting...... just waiting.

My Bluespot Jawfish died today rather suddenly. He was acting weird yesterday, kinda reclusive and not doing his usual construction on all his burrows. He ate for me though.... quite a bit even. He didn't have anything on him, his color was great, appetite fine, no signs of parasites. His tummy was bloated when I got home from the LFS today and he was floundering around on the sand. I was asking questions in my local club forum to see what it could be, and he died while I did that. I just had my water tested at the LFS and Nitrite, Nitrate, Amonia were all zero. PH 8.0 The only thing off was my phosphates were .25..... which I was expecting and the whole reason I had the water tested. I'm so sad. I'll miss him. I didn't even have time to set up my QT for him! ugh.

Sorry for your loss. Hate having something die and not know why but sometimes it happens.

Thanks. I know it does.. and that sucks. I mean, it was 20 minutes from the time I saw he was in distress to the time he was a goner.

Awesome job! Love the aqua scape and colors

Thanks! I put a lot of thought into how i wanted it to look. I was going for depth. It may not be artfully arranged, but i tried for that too. Lol I also have eclectic taste in corals. I always keep an eye out for colors that i dont already have.

I built a feeder for my mandarin following @paulb 's instructions. So far, the only one eating the bbs is the cardinal.... but thats ok! It seems to work, but they are ao small some of them just swim right out. I never knew just how tiny the bbs are!
