upper left corner... is that a chariot wheel lost on the road to Atlantis?
:cool:
 
when I started my tank, my intent was to keep a Harley shrimp. I put 500 plus of these little starts in to the tanks 6 months before adding it, and continued adding 100+ monthly after. never had the explosive population I read about and could barely keep up with Harley.

If I could get one to go in the twins first I would but the long nose hawk would kill it, they do no harm so they are what they are, I am going to seed the sump fuge of the twins to breed more, I was feeding about 10 a day to one I tried to maintain but ran out and I won't feed one an ornamental star.
 
I moved the torch yesterday and placed it low as I don't trust the lights! ;)

The nepthea is expanding really nicely but is still polyp shy. :)

As of about half an hour ago, I need to decide on what to dose because with lps and sps in here there will be consumption.
Thinking Tropic Marin All For Reef as that is what I will be swapping the twins too in the future?

Thanks, when it got mislaid it was head down under a rock and it dropped the gold colour from the polyps but hopefully it will colour back up. :)

The new litophyton (I think but until it shows polyps I can't be sure) is expanding well. :)

Nutrient control, the old blade two down from this started to let go, I think they call it going sexual, I have a theory about this, I think it senses the nutrient level and releases nutrients when the levels are low?
... or I'm an aging oregano toker?! ;)
Anywho it went to feed the fish in the big tank! :)

As soon as I switched the blues on this morning I saw this fluff, the lito has been expanding more each day but at night it sort of collapses and last night it must have collapsed on the lobo.
I have now moved it and will see how it reacts, looks bad so I will frag it if I have to.
