I already have an established tank ( only been up for 4 months at this current house ) and i only have fish and live rock in that tank... so i wanted to get a nano up and running ...

i do top offs daily and give them 5 drops of phytoplex daily - no skimmer just that main filter on the back

 

 

Found this guy in my main tank in the back - decided to add him as well just a lonely shroom

Then after this i went and redid my main tank aquascape - and i found this guy !!! - i got my live rock off Clist as a trade for a laptop - 250 pds of live rock and i never saw this guy in the back for about 2 months. I cant get him off of it but i want him in the main tank, id guess hes a Chinese shroom ?

 

hes over an inch in diam

any help getting him off would be appreciated i cant get him off because i dont know how and dont want to hurt him!

 

 

Soon a canister filter is coming with a spray bar, i know its not the norm but im going to try it.

 

 

Hope you guys enjoy!
