Default Just a bit of an update ...

Since I removed and replaced all the liverock to make the 4-lines go to a new home, some things are good and others not so good.

All the fish are happier and the Coral Beauty is coming out a lot more frequently. The lawnmower Blennie and the Coral Hawkfish are trying to decide who rules the rocks - so far they just have the odd "I was here first" kinda discussions ... nothing major.

I'm having some problems with the softies that have me scratching my head.
The Zoa is doing great and the orange ricordia - which took a tumble the night before last - is very happy in its new cranny.

Something is disagreeing with the Mushrooms the Xenia and the Colt Corals. Most of the mushrooms are looking a bit distressed, not fully opening. Not sure why. Also the Pulsing Xenia and the Colt Corals are looking worse for wear. Actually the Pulsing Xenia has broken the stalk/leg and dropped to the substrate and the Colt's are all droopy.

It almost seemed as though there was too much current, so I've put the Koralia 1 on a timer to see if this helps. I don't know for sure if this will help the softies, but the Candy Canes are going freakin nuts, but in the good sense.

I've got an AquaC Remora coming this/next week - hopefully this might take care of any condition problems that I might have.

Got a few more hardware changes to make over the next few weeks. I'll post when they start to happen.

45gal Display
29gal sump with refugium
Lifereef overflow (600gph)
Mag 9.5 return pump
Koralia 1 on Naturalwave timer
Corallife 2 x 96w CF 3x10,000k & 1xActinic tubes On ~12hrs/day

1x26w Spiral CF 6700k
Various macro
Chaetomorpha

IO Sea Salt 1.0028
