Excellent photos, Catherine! That's the most wicked hitchhiker I've ever seen. I think I got a crab once. *sigh* lol....
Keep it up, whatever you're doing seems to be working!

Another quick photo update from October 24th
 The tank is reaching the point in which it is declining. I'm not seeing any growth in any frags, and the color isn't returning to its original levels any more. I think the tank is overstocked with frags and its time to upgrade ASAP. I have also unfortunately lost a frag, again because of the hydnophorna. The urchin popped my red milli off my rock, and across the tank into the open, yet posionous arms of the neon killer. Why must hydnophorna be so pretty?!

A quick, and most likely final update for this system.
The tank is coming down permanently on the 23rd, and hopefully will be going to a new home soon. This tank served me spectacularly until two things happened: 1) people started selling pretty frags, and my eyes officially became too big for my tank! 2) I started going away every weekend, and slacked on water changes. I went from 2 changes a week to one every two weeks. Right now the tank is way too full as you can see here:  The green hair algae has come back, and for a month or two there it was about 90% gone from the tank.  On the positive side though the colors are returning to a lot of my frags that were bleached out by the Phosban.  I am also seeing good polyp extension again, almost back to the point the tank was in say August. A final actinic shot from just after actinics on.  So to end this thread, and its been a good thread, this tank marked my first official nano tank. I think I can deem it a semi-success, things grew, and they lived. Starting on the 24th, everything will be living here. Here is a 28g long DIY nano running on a calfo manifold.
