mpsti05 Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Nice pics! Hows the 2 spot do cleaning the sand bed? I really want one instead of a diamond goby again Link to comment
Criley7 Posted July 17, 2012 Author Share Posted July 17, 2012 Thanks! He does sift constantly but its hard to tell ow much is him. I have a huge CUC, a sand sifting star, and a Tiger Conch. But he definitely doesn't hurt the situation. Link to comment
Criley7 Posted July 17, 2012 Author Share Posted July 17, 2012 I would reccommend a small conch to stir up the sand bed better. Link to comment
mpsti05 Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 I would reccommend a small conch to stir up the sand bed better. I'll probably give one a try when i go to the lfs next week. Link to comment
brad908 Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Nice pictures. I'm about to set up my radion, any reccomended settings for acclimating corals? Link to comment
Criley7 Posted July 17, 2012 Author Share Posted July 17, 2012 Nice pictures. I'm about to set up my radion, any reccomended settings for acclimating corals? Thanks! I Just started my intensity around 40% and increased it 5% every week or two until I got to the desired setting which I am happy at 70% now. I am able to grow SPS on the bottom of a 24" tall tank at 70% intensity. I also made a custom setting the was just like the natural setting by having sunrise and sunset, only differences are that I have more blue in my spectrum than natural, and the intensity never reaches 100%. I'll probably give one a try when i go to the lfs next week. Do it! Link to comment

Squared Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 i saw a pair of two spots and i really wanted to get them! are yours eating frozen? my LFS says they do but im not sure. Link to comment
Criley7 Posted July 18, 2012 Author Share Posted July 18, 2012 Mine has been eating New Life Spectrum Pellets. I feed that 99% of the time anyway. So I'm sure he would eat frozen. Really though if you feed the tank heavy enough he would be sustained by just sifting through the sand and No additional feeding. I do this and haven't actually fed my YWG in a year now.

HVani Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 Nice! Thanks for posting. How do your 2 shrimp gobies get along? Link to comment
Criley7 Posted July 19, 2012 Author Share Posted July 19, 2012 I just added the yellow assessor to the list. I forgot about him since he has been hiding a lot. The gobies get along well. They never fight because they each have their own den on opposite ends of the tank. But when they roam around at feeding time, they puff up and open their mouths real wide, but that's it. They never get physical and it ends almost as quickly as it starts. Link to comment
Arkayology Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 That's quite a stocking list. Everything looks good in your tank. Have any closeups or the corals? Link to comment
Fsarmien Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 haha nice! How do you like the goby/ pistol pair so far? They're alright just hiding most of the time. And my zombie snails died when it arrived I think When you got yours how long did it take them to move? Link to comment
Criley7 Posted July 22, 2012 Author Share Posted July 22, 2012 That's quite a stocking list. Everything looks good in your tank. Have any closeups or the corals? Yea I'm definitely gonna go with fully stock for $1000 Alex Trebek. Haha I do have some recent coral pictures pages 29-31. But I'm going to work on getting some more. Thanks again. They're alright just hiding most of the time. And my zombie snails died when it arrived I think When you got yours how long did it take them to move? Yea they will probally hide a lot during the first few weeks until they are established and happy in one spot. Whenever I have bought Nassarius snails(zombie snails) they would immediately start moving. They only snails that go dormant on me are Ceriths. Where did you get them from? Link to comment
