My 40 gallon recife build

Those are some fire RFAs man! That sucks on the aips and gha though, kinda takes a bit of wind out of the sails. I had gha real bad for a while too, kinda sucks. I think its just one of those things everyone has to go through (at least once).

All 3 from this latest one are growing really good, thank you for asking. Except sniper, it is really healthy looking but slooooow.
You have any more crab duals on the scolly mat? Were they more like the ufc octagon or sumo style bouts lol (i love that pic btw)

Thanks Beard! Glad to hear that the acros are growing. Make sure to come here and gloat about any victories!

The new porcelain crab has actually been chilling in the scolygon lately. Im hoping he finds his way to the rfas soon though.

Not yet Kevin, but they have finally settled down. Im hoping he will soon!

They will find them. I had 3 porcelain crabs at one time each had their own rfa.

If they had color, id love em. Cheapest coral ever! I've been seeing the berghia out at night. If they dont work, my tank may be cooked

I just dumped in 4 more pepps, making 4 pepps and 2 kukenthalis in the 25gal AIO. In self preservation I've convinced myself that the Aip population is starting to dwindle.

I like your new rock flower anemone. I have one just like yours. I placed it in the front of the tank. It decided it prefers the back of the tank where no one can see it

Thanks Diana! That's what im worried about. My biggest one stuck to the glass and contorted between two rocks. You couldnt even tell what it was anymore

Me slowly pulling him off the glass saying, "Oh no I dont think so buddy"

Oh man I hope so. Have you seen the pepps go after any corals, JoJo?

Corals seem fine. I'm mostly worried about the snails since they might be a bit hungry with the reduced feeding schedule...

Aiptasia is a swearword in our house now. I did shut down a 30 gallon because of them. I mean, i was upgrading to a 75 anyways, but i tossed everything in the 30. Rock, sand, anything i couldnt frag clean had to go. I qt'd everything for a few months too before adding it to my 75. It was pretty bad...

You know you've got reefing figured out when even your aiptasia is beautiful !

Hope the berghias did their thing!
