Maybe i will get one. Just for u si.

3rd and final round of corals is about to get dipped. Then I'll clean up the mess I've made all over my house and hopefully when I come back I'll have some pretty stuff to share :)

Some new, some old.

Starting to get organized.

Not sure why the cephastrea got blurry. Must have moved when I took it. Too lazy to get another.

Awesome! stunning colors and frags.
Very healthy looking haul. :)
Thanks guys! I am pleased overall with the corals. Then Murphy came to visit, read below.

Looks great, man! Love that Chalice in the first set! All looking well!

They had some nice colored ones for cheap, and I got a bonus chalice in the frag pack I won.


Now, always some bad with the good right?

Came home to this...
Fox is in QT. Sigh...

Appears to be rock scrapes. Even though the sailfin, yellow, and fox all graze and roam together, they bicker as well at times.

Pretty confident that it's nothing serious. No spots, its fat and thick happy, eats like a pig. I am debating asking the lady for an emergency order of rubyreef, and furan 2..

The rear of his dorsil fin and tail are a touch ratty which makes me fear the concept of brook. All other fish look fine. Normal. No visual cues to a potential issue.

Calling captain reef planet for more opinions...

I feel awful. It looks very painful and discomforting. :(

Sorry and thank you.

/me prays now

I would watch for infection (increased redness). Did this happen suddenly or slowly progress?
