so happy. Watch my mandarin eat some frozen brine shrimp. She ate quite a few!
Think I may find some blood worms and see if she likes those!

First off I have a clam. It hitch hiked in disguised as zoas
next I’m loving this moonlight look
Finally two mouths fighting over food

I recently purchased some flame tip cloves from @footgal and honestly between those and the rainbow cloves I can’t wait till they take off! Plan is to let those cover all the spots up top where the light may be toooo bright for other corals!

That fuge sure does grow things. Recently notice cyano in there but no where else so I’m just manually removing it!

So I may be backwards but I wish it would grow quicker!
What is that?Found one of these View attachment 1819950View attachment 1819951
Quickly caught it and sent it
Think it may have nibbled on this

Thank you. It’s definitely a work in progress and a learning experience

So I ripped apart my tank and cleaned it. I removed all my sand, ridding myself of the black sand. I placed new sand and used around 15lbs (probably less) I am much happier with the pure white sand now. I am about 24hrs out from when I got everything put back together and all my corals and fish seem happy.
I did reuse about 5 gallons or so of water.
I will be reseeding my pod population and I already replaced the brittle stars that I couldn’t find.
I rinsed and lightly scrubbed al my rocks in salt water.
the amount of detritus was outrageous.
my mandarin is having to work for her food until the pod orders come in. I did pick up some fromLFS but won’t be nearly enough to really get the explosion of pods I’m looking for, so I always buy pods from multiple places. I know some of my amphipods made it through but no sure how many which means I will probably buy a small batch. With the hopes between my nassarius and the micro brittle stars I keep a cleaner tank
