Kinny is the man! He helped out me out Friday evening at the fish master sale he had. Picked up 5-6 corals from him...

Update @saltrookie53 ?

saltrookie53 · Dec 13, 2016

nothing to update at this time. waiting for my sps to encrusting the frag plug. waiting to see if the blastamosa that broke off last night will make it in its new spot. Giving my tank a little more time to break in before adding much else. Changing from nylon socks to cloth socks this week. Still don't have my nano bubbles set up on a timmer yet...

tore my whole reef apart trying to find a frag. I now have a sump urchin as soon as I find the frag and get everything put back together...[emoji35]

Urchins and their hats

there is enough algae in the refugium now it should do fine down there.

Had to pull two rock tonight due to the aiptasia...

Lemon juice in a syringe, hit them in the middle and poof. Just don't do a bunch at once(lots of lemon in the tank)

I've also had very good luck with aptasiaX.
