Lauraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa Posted August 3, 2015 Author Share Posted August 3, 2015 Looks awesome! Did you get many HH with the rock? I haven't seen any inverts or any critters if that's what you mean but there's a nice sized halimeda on one of the rocks. Link to comment

Everything is the same or better than when I left except for one thing ... ALGAE Lots of algae. Thankfully my cleanup crew (from John of course) is on its way. Sorry about the zoomed out pic all my normal fts's couldn't upload because the file was to large, anyone know how to fix this? (I'm on an iPad) Although I love that this pic shows that I am officially the least organized person in the world. Link to comment

1.0reef Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 IMO all of the best Hawaiian biotope fish are pretty big, a native blenny or goby would probably be the only choice. Link to comment
Lauraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa Posted September 25, 2015 Author Share Posted September 25, 2015 IMO all of the best Hawaiian biotope fish are pretty big, a native blenny or goby would probably be the only choice. Yeah that's why I decided not making it a biotope. Link to comment
