Craig's Tank Journal

Thanks!

I am planning to keep with ZEO. The cost analysis shows it pretty reasonable to continue and there is no refugium nor extra rocks in the sump nor a dsb or otherwise (all which would have required me to run a larger sump anyways) -- just the ZEO reactor and skimmer - which has less maintenance, and more display/growth to enjoy (at least that's my thoughts at this point)


Progression is going well, will add livestock pics tomorrow - but currently the list is:

- 2 clowns (one tiny ~1 inch, and the other mature at over 2"),
- 3 chromis (medium size, say 1.5")
- 1 barnacle blenny (1.5") -- almost forgot this guy
- 1 porcelain crab
- 1 blue tuxedo urchin (1")
- 1 purple linckia (3" from longest tip-to-tip)
- 8 turbo snails
- 5 narcissus snails
- 8 hermit crabs
- candy cane (3 clusters, 14 heads)
- frogspawn (1 cluster, ~6 heads, 5-6" across)
- torch (1 cluster, 2 heads, 2" across not extended)
- suncoral (1 cluster, ~30 heads)


Added the most recent bits of that 3 days ago, going to add some more tomorrow (water quality is unchanged and ammonia/nitrite/nitrate was unmeasurably affected by the addition)... my last nano tank will then be nearly empty after tomorrow's transitions, leaving just the bubble tip and it's buddy (another 1.5" clown) for maybe Tuesday-ish.
