d9hp Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 Tank looks great. Glad you got that nem moved before the MP10 did. Link to comment
seabass Posted March 16, 2011 Author Share Posted March 16, 2011 The anemone has decided stayed put: That's typical of Rock Flower Anemones. Lots of 'little' things going on: 1) I see a bunch of these little snails on the glass (not sure what type they are). 2) The seagrass has spread to the edge of the tank (we should be able to see the roots soon). 3) There are tons of these in the sand and on the rocks, whatever they are. Hydroids or feather dusters? 4) All sorts of various pods Link to comment

Haagenize Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 Hey first of all great tank, second, I've been out of the hobby a few years, and will be for a few more before i get a more predictable schedule, but anyways, I was wondering what is it about sea grass that fascinates and interests you/others?

I'm not sure why I like seagrass. After doing a few reef tanks, it's something different and a new challenge. I like how it looks, and its potential for nutrient export is impressive. Plus it's not $100 a polyp. Great pics, seabass. Thank you! I'm glad you stopped by. Link to comment

I understand I'm not sure if your non reefer friends would though, growing grass and all Link to comment
yoshii Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 I've noticed a few of these on the glass: Any thoughts as to what it is/will be? Pest or harmless? Cladonema Jellyfish, harmless, will probably go away in a few weeks, but neat to watch! Seagrass looks better! Link to comment

I understand I'm not sure if your non reefer friends would though, growing grass and allThat's OK, most of them don't get any of it. Cladonema Jellyfish, harmless, will probably go away in a few weeks, but neat to watch! Seagrass looks better!Thanks yoshii! I'm not sure where the cladonema jellies/hydroids (related) came from, maybe the seagrass? I was concerned that the seagrass wouldn't make it; but I agree, it's looking up. Here is a better shot of the seagrass's gas trails: Link to comment

seabass Posted March 20, 2011 Author Share Posted March 20, 2011 Thanks yoshii. Not sure, maybe from the LR?It's been a few years since I've purchased any new LR. Maybe a coral or other some other livestock I recently purchased. Link to comment

yoshii Posted March 20, 2011 Share Posted March 20, 2011 Thanks yoshii. It's been a few years since I've purchased any new LR. Maybe a coral or other some other livestock I recently purchased. Probably on a rock livestock was attached to, cool little critters anyways Link to comment
seabass Posted March 24, 2011 Author Share Posted March 24, 2011 The proud papa? The seagrass continues to spread to the glass and under the rocks I'm thinking the grass isn't as green as it should be, so I ordered some Kent Marine Iron & Manganese. Maybe it will help. This guy decided to move about 4" the other day Link to comment
Zer0 Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 Love this tank. Seabass you are about 17.4 gallons of hero. Probably more. Link to comment
