It's a wolverine look alike. I did not know the exact species though.

Thanks for the kind words guys! This is what keeps me motivated to do tank maintenance during the beautiful BC summer weather.

Looking great as always. Every time I read through an update on this thread I wish you lived closer purely for trading purposes.

Gorgeous Rich!!!

Have you thought of selling carbon credits with the amount of CO2 that the corals have bound into their skelies.

Thanks!

Water changes are done bi or tri weekly, that's I try to do it biweekly but some times it becomes 3 or sometimes 4...☺️ Summer time, too much to do outside. I do still run biopellets along with 1 no3 brick directly underneath my drain with no filter sock. I also have 1 marine pure block and a bag of marine pure bioballs. Recently set up a chaeto reactor using a tlf 550 reactor and strip light from jl aquatics, so far its working great. I haven't ran any phosphate and carbon media for a long time and running on a year and a half old 36w uv light. Hope that helps.
