Okay, it's been a while, but I've been on a maintenance spree for a few weeks. Here are some pictures from last night, just before lights out. Also, one of my nems split! It's the first time this has happened for me.

It definitely looks like your dosing and the stability in the tank is paying off and being rewarded!!! Everything is looking fantastic!!!

Okay guys, I’m currently running two XR15s on my 90-gallon reef, but today I went ahead and picked up a Reef Breeders 48 for $175 (I know, heck of a deal!). @08TRDOFFROAD told me I’d be crazy not to go get it.

I also got some sticks today. I don't really care about the names, but I'll post pictures of them anyway. Both have already settled in and are doing great!

I think my exact words were, "Go buy it and if you don't want it, I'll buy it from you!"

The new sticks are looking great! Imma need a frag of the confetti someday!

Could it not be getting along with the ones around it? I would move it to it's own space and see if it starts to open up better. Not all gonis play nice with each other.

This is what Google has to say about it.

"Best Practices for a "Goni Garden"
To safely group multiple Gonioporas, start by spacing them out generously. As they grow, observe how they interact; if one begins to close up or show signs of tissue damage, it is likely being stung and should be relocated."

Well, a new project is officially in the works. Since I have extra lights, I’m going to set up that 60-gallon cube @08TRDOFFROAD traded me a while back. It's definitely going to be a project since it just has the basics, but the plan right now is to turn it into a standalone clown harem tank. Things could always change, but that's the goal!
