PS, I apologize for the algae on the glass and the salt creep...I'm going to clean that up. ;) (Now I should have done that prior to posting photos, shouldn't I have?) :P

That wrasse may find those shrimp to be tasty.
Yep! :) I have decided that I am going to return the little guy. I really like him, but can't risk the crustaceans! ;) I did do research prior to purchase, but obviously not enough...I only checked one website. (tsk tsk on myself)
Thanks for following along! :)

Well, I tried catching the Wrasse (haha @ me ;) ) and let's just say I think I'm going to be ordering the aquamedic fish trap...I would try to make one, but I am not that good at DIY stuff. :/

In the good news department, the Foxface has been doing really well! He has started to accept other foods readily, and has taken a liking to the seaweed I add on the clip! :)It's fun watching him eat it.

Hello all! So, I made a thread a few weeks ago about which was more effective at removing nitrates....an algae scrubber or refugium. I got many responses, and it looks like the majority say a fuge is more effective. I think I would like to set one up (all equipment on this tank right now is HOB), but it has been a long while since I have set up a fuge. My tank is not drilled. So where do I start exactly? lol...so I know I need a tank, but I'm not sure what size. Also am not sure which HOB device would be good to get the water from the tank to the fuge. Any recommendations would be fantastic. Thanks! :) Oh, and how do I know how powerful of a pump to get?

Hi everyone! I have so many updates to share, I figured I would talk about them/show them instead of typing about them!
Check out the video (many more to come in time as well). :)


Thanks for following!

EVERYONE HI! Long time no see! And boy, do I have some exciting things to share! Let's spash right in to it! ;)

So, new fish wise....

I have two Black and White Clownfish that I have added to the 125g, and they are SOOO CUTE! I bought them last Sunday and they are doing great. They're really active, like, REALLY active, which surprised me a little bit because I am used to Clownfish chilling in the corner of the tank, lol. The larger one in particular enjoys racing the six feet from one side of the tank to the other, it's a blast to watch! :)

I don't have a thread for my 29g BioCube just yet, so I am going to go create it and post the rest of the updates there....and trust me, those updates are possibly even more exciting than this one. I'll post the link to that here once I create it. :)

And I have a new video coming soon, so you will be able to see the new adds soon! :)
