That copperband face on pic is awesome (the one with the clowns).

Well, I still got the female... So it wasn't a completely loss *knock on wood*.


Bit of a system upgrade earlier this week. Finally got a chance to add a Tunze ATO to my system. 77 liter reservoir with a Seio 620 powerhead suctioned to the bottom pointing vertically to the water surface to circulate. Would really like to get the 2 stands skinned someday soon so it doesn't look so ghetto.





FTS shot for March.

Touche, but I still don't like seeing the "brain" of the system ALL the time.. Kind of an eye sore after awhile..

Haha... someday man..


Decided to bust up a big piece of live rock I had in my fuge today, and with the great Zoa frags at Red Coral, I made a "Zoa Island" rock.. as well as added a larger piece of the LR just to the left, which has opened up alot more room for frags/coral. Also took Carmens advise after loosing my last perculas, and am trying 2 normal, bone head, occelaris clowns. Gave them a slow acclimation, added them and within 10-15 mins they were hosting my Torch... both ate tonight as well with everyone. *Fingers crossed*

Here is Zoa Island, I will get some close ups once they start opening up fully:


and 2 shots of the clowns, just incase anyone in curious, the butterfly doesn't bother the clams, just picks stuff off the shell:

Added some lighting to my fairly bare refugium on monday.. its a 4x24W Aquamedic T5 (normal output) light, thanks to fishytime.



Also going through a bit of a Clown/Zoa photo frenzy lately.. haha..The Clowns are enjoying my Torch quite a bit. Will probably be adding a Green BTA for them in the coming weeks though, hopefully they vacate the torch, as I would hate for them to kill it off since it was the first coral I ever bought.
