I can't remember the last live sale I did. I kind of miss them.
February was my last one I actually purchased from. I think? March actually now that I think about it.

Lights out. I didn't realize we were on a new page...!

Joker Nexus. It used to be a Joker Nexus Burst or something like that but it lost that second face (orange) and the one I got is the green side only. It'd be nice if the orange comes back.

I am hoping it happens. Like how chalice coral gain an extra color. You'd really have something to brag about!

So I've got a bit of a bubble algae issue right now. I ordered a pitho and some "guaranteed to eat bubble algae" emerald crabs. While reading earlier though I found something that confirmed some of my suspicions - Trochus snails will eat bubble algae! I've noticed most nights all my baby Trochus are grazing on bubble algae. However, there is no noticable dent. My Lo hasn't started eating it yet. He grabbed a piece the other day and swam around with it in his mouth but that was the extent.

If it's too big for the fox to get with a nibble, they usually leave it alone. As where the emerald crabs will break them apart to eat. I am also in the bubble algae territory now. Not a big deal. Cane become one if left alone. I've been trying to grow the red bubble algae because it's softer and it has fluorescent.

Nori fed... Trying to fatten the Foxface and get him HUGE to eat Bubble Algae. Lights came on about an hour ago, ramping up still so everyone is still waking up.

Scraped a bunch of bubble algae of some frags to try to help. Two of my Blastos were opening like cups instead of full open so I pulled them and found a couple of Vermetid snails in the back where I couldn't see. Broke them off - base and all. Pulled the third Wellsi to remove some bubble and found a baby! Checked my Micro from LRO and found another baby! Dragon Soul is looking good. Starting to puff up a lot more.

The Zoas are still not coloring up and little to no lashes... But they're open. I'm hoping they get some color.

I'm thinking about moving the Duncan up off the sand bed soon.

Maybe here, above the Micro which will be moving to the Aragocrete rack in a couple of days.

Ok, first post has been edited and updated with LOTS of TLDR but also lots of progress pictures from the thread. I tried to link to several of what I feel are key moments in the build thread as well.

I actually found a plugin for this forum that lets site admins do it but I havent gotten any traction on it...

Oh that would be nice! For mine I just added all my summary stuff on top of the first post, then "--Original Post--" and the rest of the junk. Mental note for my next build thread, Reserve a second post slot.. :cool: (unfortunately that is not yet a teaser campaign..)
