gena Posted April 15, 2014 Author Share Posted April 15, 2014 A 3g pico shouldn't be so much work to transfer LOL. Sheesh. Everything made it safely. Now to survive any sort of cycle. Hopefully there won't be any . Went really well actually. Everybody made the move. I was worried the porcelain crab didn't make it because I couldn't find him anywhere. I thought I might have crushed him under a rock. But thank heavens, he's fine and out fanning/filtering the water right now . Here's the new tank. Still cloudy but slowly clearing. I removed a bunch of macroalgae. Mostly the ochtodes. There are still sprigs on the rocks that will most certainly grow back. Got rid of the halimeda and the caulerpa and the mangroves. The mangroves had a crazy root system going...huge!!!!! Anyways....pictures. I couldn't get too crazy with the scape. I think it turned out ok. Not exciting, but I'm more about the rock flowers than a fancy scape with this tank . Link to comment
FlowerMama Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 I'm hoping then they'll stretch a few tentacles and say, OH, hey, wait a minute......and then stretch out some more, spawn til it's foggy in there and make some flower buds! Link to comment

Hopefully I'll find some babies!!!!! I'm thinking I need to get the optics or whatever for the PAR30 bulb. Have to look into that anyways. Link to comment
FlowerMama Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 I had to lift my par 38 up to not bleach the sps and still change out for the 120s on that one. That size looks so much more comfortable on your desk! Link to comment
gena Posted April 15, 2014 Author Share Posted April 15, 2014 I really like the size a lot. My GCG is all confused in the new tank. I hope he finds a nice new home quickly . Link to comment

Lawnman Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 The scape looks great! I am following along . Link to comment
gena Posted April 15, 2014 Author Share Posted April 15, 2014 The scape looks great! I am following along . I'm going to place the new green rock flower on the right side, where I'll have the best view of it. I've been wanting one just like that but could only find huge ones. I don't think this one is very big, but even if it is I have the space now . Link to comment
FlowerMama Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 Did ya order a new flower? Link to comment
gena Posted April 15, 2014 Author Share Posted April 15, 2014 Did ya order a new flower? Actually, Lawnman bought it for me . Glenn posted a photo of some rock anemone's in Lawn's thread and I mentioned I really liked this green one and a pink one. When Glenn launched his coral website (coralgardensaquaculture.com) he gave Lawn an extra early window to shop and he bought that flower for me so someone else wouldn't snatch it up. So very thoughtful, huh????? . Link to comment
