Day 18 (and Day 5 of AI Grow Blades).
What's this green stuff? Diatoms or else?
Current inhabitants: 1 Sapphire Damsel and 1 Coral Beauty Angelfish — both from Biota. Very peraceful, don't interact with each other at all. I also purchased 2 Fancy Peppermint shrimps from Biota but I am not able to locate them in the reef tank... (And they are not in the filter either).
Cleanup crew arriving next week from Reef Cleaners:
21 Florida Cerith snails
6 Mexican Turbo
7 Nassarius Vibex
1 Tiger Conch
Copepods arrive on Tuesday from Dinkins.
Started skimmer (Octo 150) today -- cup is full of water, valve is wide open... Perhaps not enough organics yet to even start using a skimmer?
Any thoughts/advice on the above and the pictures?
