Even after rinsing the new sand vigorously for almost three hours, and then carefully lowering it in bowl by bowl, it was still this cloudy when I was finished. Too cloudy to see to do my rockscaping.

Thank-you! :)

This is the next morning. Clear enough to see everyone has survived, and to arrange my rock to my liking :)

This will do until the dry rock that I got with the new tank (Craigslist) has cured, at that time I will do one more re-arrangement to prepare for the future arrival of corals :)

looks great , has your green carpet eaten any fish yet??

Lookin' good :smile:
Got the Bangaii straight away :sad:
If you think that's ugly algae, you should see mine !!!

The little green carpet ate two tiny saltwater Molly's that I thought might be easy to breed (eggs for a secondary food source) they where not very intelligent (obviously) other than that, it hasn't in the 8 months I have had it. I have had a large saddle anemone as well for over a year, and the only fish it ever ate is one tang that was looking unwell straight from the store.. It was a purchase made unwisely as I really wanted a new fish, and it was the only appropriate selection in the store. (And i drove almost two hours to get to the store lol!) I was hoping it would recover in a good system. I learned my lesson the hard way when it declined quickly and basically swam right into it. Aside from that my other fish have been fine, my clown lives in there. I am thinking I will get rid of them before going heavy into stocking the new tank, although I would like to find something that my clown will like to live in as much.

if its already playing in the anemone it will most likely play in others.

yours did??
