You should split the fuge into 2 parts, the fuge and a section for a little algae scrubber. I hear you don't need to scrape the glass as often with one as the algae is beong encouraged to grow elsewhere. Not sure if that's 100% accurate or not bit if i had room on my tank I'd install one.

Since this hobby is all about throwing money away ...
I bought some Berghias today from Bill I tried to catch my Peppermint shrimps - to no avail Over the next week or so I'll try to catch the shrimps, but I think I'll have to buy more Nudis I was going to post some pics, but Photobucket is down ...

The obvious happened ... The Peppermints got lazy. As soon as I added fish the shrimp got a free ride with all the food floating around and don't appear to need to eat the aiptasia anymore

Oh no.....please don't tell me you're battling aiptaisa. That sux.....I had a couple but quickly terminated them. That was a couple months ago. I too have peppermint shrimp so if I did have any more aiptasia since then, I think the pep's probably would have destroyed them as well.
Oh well I guess it's all part of the game. Best of luck with your fight my friend.

Saw a berghia last night, so the peppermints haven't eaten them all ... yet
Bought more coral yesterday I got a Purple Valida bansai acro, a red and a green acro, a wedge of green and, I think, yellow leptastrea, a nice green florida ric, and both some blue and some green zoas All small stuff, so don't stay tuned for any major pics  Everything else is doing well Algae is still under control Hector and Bennie have eaten all the Isopods, so I hope the Hector's learns to eat mysis soon .... The foxface is finally used to me having my hands in the tank, so no more worries about getting stabbed Oh, I got 8 days out of my new felt socks and washed them before they were overflowing Far cry from the old mesh ones, so, very happy there Plus, they washed up very nicely Nothing else to write home about Ma ... Pics soon ...
