The Barracks

[Kadosira]

15g tall tank from Petco. It came with lights built in to the lid but we removed them and cut a hole for an AI prime. HOB filter, tiny sicce wave maker.

Inhabitants:
Lt. Dan, a maroon gold spot clownfish we got for $5 from Petco because he had no tail (from fighting a wrasse) and no one wanted him after more than a month there. His tail has since grown back! Mostly, still smaller than it should be. Dan will attack the mag float when you're cleaning, has attacked corals we put in there. Oddly doesn't mind Lenny.

Lenny the Bicolor Blenny, also from Petco.

John Cena, a huge, mean emerald crab that will threaten you when you walk by. He has also attacked the mag float.

Zoas of various flavors.
A green nepthea.
Two green hairy mushrooms
A green Hammer
Cabbage leather.
A little ricordea mushroom

A nassarius snail and a couple small hermits. A trochus snail.

I'll have to get more pictures after work. Not a lot of recents on my phone.

I have the same tank sitting empty at the moment, what hob filter did you go with?

It's an AquaClear 50. Very quiet and seems to do a great job at keeping things clean.

Crackers! Between working on the Meadow, battling ich in the DT, and setting up the Nem tank I completely forgot.

We are battling algae in this tank but got several new emerald crabs who have just about cleared the rocks, added copepods to eat microalgae, and done more water changes. Oh, we also added a purigen pack into the filter and cleaned the filter really well. Slowly, we are winning.
