Thanks Mike. I changed the flow around and added new carbon and my LTA is the happiest thing in the tank.....besides the clowns.

Fantastic set up, especially nice to see another peninsula tank. Only thing we need is a FTS please and thank you ?

Btw your wife's voice reminds me of Dolores O'Riordan, great music to go with the video.

My wife (KissMyWrasse) thanks you greatly for your comments!

Here are a couple of tank shots from the weekend.....I was cleaning the tank so the light is offset and the one shot will show the workings underneath. I am really wanting to do a build from scratch as you can see (and well imagine) the extras are spilling out into the kitchen. (which I am standing in taking this picture) My wife is a very patient lady......but, I need to fix this. Also if I build in our unfinished basement then I will have more control over the natural lighting as this causes issues as well. Sorry for the messy shots! My new tank will probably be a 96"l x 30"w x 24-26"h.

Talking Sea Slug?

I found this guy in the rocks today. Now hear me out....my wife and I scour these rocks on a regular basis (daylight and night time) and this is the first I have seen this guy.....he's a good hider let me tell you.

Also I found a very cool forum as I am trying to identify this animal as a sea slug....sorry for my ignorance but he looks like he would be classified as a slug of some sort.

It appears to have a soft body.....tan stripes to dark brown just like you see in the pictures. Kinda furry looking appearance when I look through the magnifier. It has 2 maybe 3 spots on the top (blue circles) - I cannot tell how long this thing is....but it is 1/2" to 3/4" wide and just what I see is approx 2" long or maybe longer.

Anyone know what this is?

****As a side note please check out this link as its a very cool place for identification of sea slugs.****

Crazy what you can suddenly find in your tank that you had no idea was there. Not sure what it is though

I like the dimensions (96"l x 30"w x 24-26"h) for your new tank. It'll be cool to see it come together.
