Thank you for everything including following my build and helping me w it too. I do have a question concerning ornamental limpets. I purchased a few regular limpets from you and honestly have only seen them a few times, to b expected, but apparently some ornamental limpets came in on my live rock and they have exploded. They r everywhere. Is it possible for them to become some type of problem? They r pretty but we have so many my wife is seeing them n her sleep. Crazy amount . thank you again

Please don't mention the algae. I see it too and am in the process of getting rid of it w Rx flux. You'd think w these pretty limpets I wouldn't have this problem. Also, I got the name ornamental limpets from my computer so that's its fault. The ornate limpet looks closest but is in New Zealand.lol Thanks, guys w this issue. Call you tomorrow for a few things too. Thanks, Algae Barn

So far this is 7mo. in and smooth sailing (Except for the previous drama). Cleaned the sump and pumps but seemed 1 year too soon.lol The cloves r really coming back from their ordeal w fish, But do think this colony will b bigger. At this point, the only thing I need to do to the Cade is wipe away the grung from around the ato float. It's not causing a problem but looks dirty. Thanks Cade and Algae Barn( for promoting a great aquarium. P.S. wish i got paid for this...jk
