So have not updated for a bit things are growing out real nice some of the pieces that had lost some of the color have come back nicely.
I bought some of stuff from Florida Aqua Farms and made a Phyto reactor and a brine shrimp hatchery. Will post some pictures later when I get a chance.
Also bought a pair of breeding clowns as mine don't lay eggs yet.
Here is a picture off the new clowns. I can't stick my hand into the tank anymore as she bites me.


Picture of my pathetic Cheeto that has not changed in 7 months. My refugium grows no algae at all but my main tank has lots. So strange. I had to take all my snails out as there is no food for them to eat. Maybe the pods consume it all first?


Got this guy as well not sure what tank to put him in right now.

Just curious as to where you got your original Blue-Spot Jawfish, and what you paid, cause they are RIDICULOUS out here.

So thought I would show a few updated pictures of my tank. Things are getting a bit packed and not much room for growth so i better get my other tank running soon.
My Darwin's were showing spawning behavior tonight so I think they might spawn soon.
My jaw fish is eating well as you can tell.


My clowns in their fake Nem.




Couple full tank shots.

Not sure what it is but I was told it has sweeper tentacles and to keep some space around it.

Looks like Hydnophora to me.
I've been wrong before. And will be again.

Just stumbled on this journal...
Nice build bud, when are the frag tanks starting up?
The pocci on the bottom left looks like it's colouring up nice too bad the spotted blue jaw passed, I'm thinking of adding one to mine but they are really expensive. Post more pics.

Got my glass and my stand is ready. Still have to make a canopy of some sort for your light. See what I mean about that red Milly frag I got form you good growth on the bottom ,but almost no polyp extension at all. Strange I think it might get too much flow, that birdsnest likes it though.
