Hey all,
So some bad news, the ricordia I introduced (not sure if they were yuma or floridia) had cyano. I did notice some dark algea when I purchased them, but I was really hoping the Iodine bath and gentle scrub was going to rid them of the bacteria. Alas, I failed. I HATE YOU CYANO, x10! (thats alot of hating)
I picked up a coral banded shrimp last night after work, so far he is just hiding in the back
Im not sure about aclimating livestock when the lights in the tank are off. I wont be doing that again though.
Today I picked up a tuxedo urchin with 3 zoa polyps and a nice green mushroom that the urchin has been carrying around. He is being drip acclimated as we speak.
The prices at Golds Aquarium cannot be beat! In the last two days my fiance and I (and our baby Liam) have made the rounds to all the reef stores, and still Golds has the best priced frags and some of the fish and inverts are cheap aswell.
THANK YOU GOLDS AQAURIUM!
Cheers guys
