picked up this guy today, I am hoping it goes fairly yellow in the future, the colony is huge about the size of 2 normal colonys I would find on an average day and then a bit. I have no idea what the name for it is, but it filled in my tank nicely provided it color's up in the future.




Im starting to fear apocolypse is upon me, ammonia is not showing nor nitrates today, i am used to seeing at least some nitrate's.

All i can do is brew more water incase the day arrive's. and hope it's just a smooth tank transfer.

adding a little bit of baking soda should help bring the alk up and the calcium levels down, btw the scape is looking nice.

Just a quick update, since i fell off the wagon for a few month's. To much world of warcraft, then new job.... found my way back on it. I thought I was going to have alot more losses then I did. But in the end the biggest casualty was a green polyp birdsnest.

Lost a couple fish recently being my bi color blenny and a royal gramma, after checking my water I am still not really sure on what caused this, My best guess would be increased feeding's may have lead to ammonia spike.

So picked up a tail spot blenny this week, funny how I found the exact fish i was looking for... right away... this never happen's.....

As for the royal gramma, im in no hurry to replace that, adds color but 0 personality..

Anywho a couple crummy pics because it never happend without them.

Tank looks great... I miss WOW... like a lot... lvl 80 druid RIP.
You have some nice looking corals there... What happened to your anemone? Did it just hide or did it die?
