Tomini Tang is doing well and is finally calm enough to pose for pics. I don't really like the pic color. Light Room adjusted to 20k but I think I will try so F85 filter shots to see the diff.

I have had this guy for over a year. I wish I would of recorded purchase dates. Its probably in build thread.


Edit : I got him Oct 17 2020. So I have had him for 1yr 10mos. He was originally in my Reefer 250 but ended up getting transferred in with the big boys because he was a coral nipper.

Bi-monthly 38 g water change...... gotta do it.
I haven't performed water changes on my 750XXL for over a year now (other than a slight volume when cleaning out the sump). And now with the ozone system the water is cleaner than ever...

@Jeffcb looks like a Brazilian flameback and not an African flameback. Brazil's have blue tail and African's have white tail.

Very interesting. His tail is very orange. I will try and get a better pic. Pretty sure he is Centropyge Acanthops

Shout out to Rei at Mag-Float. Great customer service.

The magnets in the handle came loose and it wouldn't stay polarized. He replaced it for me.

Mag Float works great!!

@Jeffcb how do you like your Hanna salinity checker? I just bought one but haven't used or read the instructions yet. I've heard you have to calibrate them each time before use? Is this true?

Calibrate once a month. I don't that often though. For water changes I look at the number is shows the tank to be and mix the salt to the same number. Works great. Was 33 last night so I made 33 salt water for the change today.

Added a Starry Blenny or Snowflake Blenny about 2 weeks ago but didn't post it because he diapered by the next day. I figured he was a goner.

I saw him yesterday and today. He eats well. This dude is huge . Every bit of 4-5 inches and fat. Pics soon.

@Jeffcb glad he showed up! My favorite blenny.
