Nice tank... progressing very nicely! Congrats on the new clown. Following.It has been far too long since I've updated here, not a ton has changed as summer has been really busy, my beautiful wife has had me packed with honeydo's. I formed up and poured a new back patio. 19'x25'. Which has been really nice. And building a bed for my 3 year old. She wanted a princess bed...it turned out to be a bed, reading nook and bookshelf. With princess drapes.
For tank updates:
Back and side panes are kinda skummy, i havent cleaned them in 6 months. The millie i picked up was coloring up nicely untill something happened, not sure exactly what still, but i do have some speculative guesses, and it rtn'd and blew all of it's flesh off over the course of a day. Was dead when i got home. We did pick up a few fish. 2 new clowns, misbar mocha and standard orange ocellaris. They have been named nemo and mocha. The two new ones were starting to be good friends untill oreo, the dominant female that ive had for years, welcomed mocha into her nems. Then both mocha and oreo began relentlessly picking on nemo. Poor dude. He hangs out next to the nems and as soon as the other 2 get distracted jumps in and chills untill they notice and chase him out again lol.
We also picked up a leopard wrass. Beautiful fish! It has gotten pretty fat hunting all the pods in there. Really fun to watch too, it has 2 moods so far, sleeping in the sand and hunting. Lol
Poor dendro too, the foxface has decided it tastes good and has slowly bothered it near to death. There is only one head still holding on. I might kick it into the sump and see if i can get it to come back.
Anyways, that is really all thats happened other than maintenance.
Happy reefing!
