Default Some updates

I have a slight outbreak of bryopsis since some seeds came through some frags and they actually require very low nutrient and BAM! They started taking over my sand bed. Since I don't want ULNS, fighting bryopsis would be hard and hence I took a different step. Came to find out that true scarlet hermits (all scarlets are red but not all red are scarlets :P ) much on bryopsis like a boss since they don't get affected by the toxin. Its like puffer sushi to sushi lovers :P

Anyway, so I got three scarlets and a maxican turbo today and my oh my, they started working (even the turbo) right when they hit the sandbed. They are working like magic! So they are happy and I am happy too

Some pics of the new crew:







Anyway, I have also added two big pieces of live rocks in the tank so that I can stuff in more corals (till now, I have 56).

Pics of the rocks:





My acan garden:



And a leptastrea frag (never saw these in LFS; might have missed it though):



And nothing ends without a good FTS

The end of the starting point of my reef tank. This tank has taught me so much from various perspectives. Alongside, lots of people have help me accomplish this tank. To me, this was like a masterpiece that I was able to create myself. Don't know whether I will be able to recreate it with my new tank but then again, the first step is always to be remembered. Thanks to everyone who appreciated my tank and helped me along the way
