Looks great I would say you are well on your way to making a magnificent reef. You might want to keep an eye on those bumble bee snails though they might eat your Zoe's if they can't find enough to eat.

I'll be sure to keep a good lookout on them!
MERRY BELATED CHRISTMAS :P !!!!
IT'S BOXING DAY !!!
Well today i went down to the lfs and "splurged"!!! Well i bought 2 Clownfish (one has a partly missing fin, will it grow back) and a Yasha Hase goby, which hasn't shown itself onece it was put in the tank and one more try at a peppermint shrimp!!! As for corals i bought a real nice looking toadstool (can anyone tell me what exact kind?) a ricordia, Clove polups, and some more zoos!!!
Since my parents were along my dad saw the scooter blenny and he, REALLY, wants one, and he kept going on about how nice it was! Now i know the problem with sandsifters in a nano, but i want to get one for my dad! If i do get it will their be many problems in the long run :huh: ?
My duncans haven't opened up since i did all the additions, hopefully it will open up! There has been no problems since i set up the tank other than the few aptasia and the still unknown shrimp death! I guess i'll post my Lists:

FISH
2 Occelaris Clownfish
Yasha Haze Goby (about 1")

CUC
Peppermint Shrimp
2 Astrea Snails
2 Turbo Snails
5 Hermit Crabs
2 Bumblebee Snails

NOW FOR THE PICS!!!

I would slow down for a bit now. I would also not add the skooter blennie for a while maybe a couple of months as they manly eat co-pod and such you should buy zoo plankton also for the corals spot feed with a turky baster or pipet. the corals will start taking off with spot feeding. looks like you have some lps which you should be adding Ca for they use it to build there skeliton corals like hammer, galixy, frogspawn coral. so you have digressed a bit away from softies only. But that is ok you can get away with doing regular water changes even softies do better with extra Ca in the tank.

Thanks Bvlester
I wasn't planning on putting the skooter blenny in for a while, but thanks for the heads up :thumbsup: If i do spot feed should i shut off all the powerheads and everything?
I am dosing Ultra Min s and Ultra Organic, will these be good enough?

Thanks Again

PS
Haven't seen the Yasha goby since i put it in... grrr

looking good.
i would put the elegance coral (the one on the far left) much closer to the light, as they require good lighting and over to the shaded side might not be the best for it.
dont worry about the yashia. they are known for hiding for long periods of time when first put into a tank.

I do my spot feeding about 1 hour after lights out as I have a candy cane and a trumpet which feed in the dark they have little tenticals they extend after dark for feeding. My self I do not turn off my power heads but I do know people that do and thier carals may grow a bit faster than mine. The way I see it in the wild the ocean does not spot moving so I don't stop mine either.

Ultra Min s and Ultra Organic should be ok it is just a preferance as to what product you use. I spot feed zoo plankton and rotifers the rest of the food and nutrence the corals get for what is in the tank already and left over food from feeding.
