Ya just a bit :lol:

I have to say love the colour I'm getting from my corals under my new halo par38 led from fragbox. March actually wants to put a pic of my nano up on their website, so I sent a few pic's to him and thought I'd start this thread since I was on a roll :biggrin:

Love that blenny! What an usual one that you have found. You always have the neatest fish and critters! If I have more time...and money...I'd love to start another tank. Something about a nice, quiet tank that can house tiny shrimps and crabs without them being totally lost is very...zen.

Thanks Barnacle blenny's are super awesome and perfect for small pico's. I also love little inverts. Found out the hard way you have to be careful though. I had sexy shrimp that were eating the zoas :twised: had to move them to a different tank. Then I got some more zoas and added some more rock and tried gluing the new zoas down (ran out of putty and was told reef glue would work) but the glue released some toxins into the tank (I'm guessing) and shortly after my cool blue spot anemone shrimp died and a little later found my pom pom crab dead :cry: Did a 30-40% water change and everything else seems ok. Still have a few zoas I have to stick down but I bought putty now. I'll have to go slow in adding as to much putty at once will create issues.

Beautiful nano, love the blenny. I use to have one, they have so much character...

I guess super glue can be toxic in a small tank, never thought that it would be harmfull but I'll keep it in mind for the future.

Keep the pics rolling please!

Ya I'm used to my big tanks so I didn't think a tiny bit of reef glue could be so harmful. I've been waiting till I get the zoas puttied in to take more pics but I'll try. Guess I should take some pics of the rock I added, you know you got to many zoas when you have to add more rock to the tank to make room :lol:

On an odd note my red hornet zoas look awful under the new light. Which is really odd since all the other zoas look nicer. Also getting way more algae growth with the new light, not surprising but a pita nonetheless.
