[Bigdaddy05]

I feed reef roids 2-3x a week recently got brs reef chilli but don't like it! I feed the fish 2-3x a day a mix of frozen And pellets and add a sheet of nori a few times a week for the tangs and snails

Had to re do the scape due to pistol shrimp and goby making things fall also added a 2nd cleaner shrimp and a starry blenny corals are still mad from the move around!

Just noticed my clam has a bleached patch and my Todd's coral has some receding flesh I assume from the move around yet both look healthy.
