I am blown away at the growth rate of my purple death Palys, have been target feeding them brine shrimp when I feed the main tank and they have gone from 14 to 27 polyps over the span of a little over a month and a half!

I walked by the tank twice before seeing them, Kevin needs some more powerful lighting on the ric tank because WOW do they pop under an 8 bulb fixture. Even more excited to see these things grow out!

Default Update

Well it's been a hectic last couple weeks but I'm very happy with the results, I decided to remove most of the livestock from my main tank, replace it with my zoas and then shut down the zoa tank. It was really hard to see most of it go but school has kept me busy so I think it's best for all.

Also managed to catch a 2.5" crab that I have been hunting for a while now .

After removing the liverock/ coral I caught most of the fish and tried to reaquascape it as open as possible.

Current fish:
Pair of percs (1 Adult female Onyx and 1 male snowclown morph)
Pair of Red long fin wrasses
Yellow Tang
Flash Gordon
Tail Spot Blenny
Potters Dwarf Angel
Flame Back Dwarf Angel
Pair of Fire Shrimp
Pair of Cleaner Shrimp
4 Peppermints

I will let the photos do most of the talking though, this is an old camera with wonky setting's so everything looks mushroom trip like:

FTS










Coral:
