JB's Reefer 250 Coral Salad with Sushi

[Jeffcb]

Did my first water change since November 2021. Six months, no water change.
I really saw no reason to but I was having a guilt trip for not doing any so now I have.

All the acros slimed up and I bare hand caught the Emerald crab that's always walking on my Gonapora. That may have been a mistake for they may have lived symbiotically. Goni always looks great, crab just likes to clean it. Crab is in FOWLR and crabs tank now.

10 Gallons!!! (I did pop 38 gals in the bi weekly fowlr tank change as well, so its no because of lazyness)

Strawberry Shortcake has grown! It was the first nearest frag on that rack. It may be time to make some frags!

 

[Jeffcb]

I don't see it often but the star fish population is dwindling.

 

[Jeffcb]

Looks sad, probably because his buddy is missing.

Juicy Fruit is growing kind of weird....

 

[Jeffcb]

Some one is always watching me.

Almost 2 years ... Before and After


Nov 2020.

I got a message on my ReefBeat App today saying I had a connectivity issue on one one the LERD90s.

Turns out a power supply blew out. I happened before and Red Sea sent me 2 new ones. I guess they know they have an issue and they fail. I pugged the spare in and am up and running. They are mounted in an Adaptive Reef Controller board. I am wondering if that's a good idea. Maybe they over heat.

Any ways the are not 2 years old yet and the warranty is for 2 years so I guess I will file another claim for a back up.

Fragged some Strawberry Shortcake and Lemon Drop Mille....

Pics after they heal up and start growing.

Goni's seem to be ok with neighbors.
Kessil is on 24/7 for almost 2 yrs now.

Seems to be on auto pilot.....

 

[Jeffcb]

ReefWaves are not on auto pilot. Filthy. Surprised if they were even pumping any water.

Soaked in Citric acid for an hour fixed that.

Added a very small Yellow Coris Wrasse.

Third try. Fingers crossed.

They just disappeared.... buried themselves and died. Never to be seen again...
