yoshii Posted March 19, 2016 Author Share Posted March 19, 2016 Awesome! I don't remember the last time I walked out of an LFS for only $40 You're better at budget shopping than I am. Sounds like they have good prices!They do have good prices! Of the two that I've been to, I like them the most.Lol I have to budget after receiving my housing bill for next quarter Awsome! My lfs had a wicked green war paint goby! I didn't get him then went back a few hours later before making my back home an hour out of town and he was gone! I would do another ycg but I'm afraid it would bother the sps in myb tank too much!Awww Yeah they can be a bother to smaller colonies 1 Quote Link to comment

Theres a good chance ill be there on friday haha I'm setting up my new temperate soon and I'm gonna grab some rocks down by the cove that wash up... I hope Quote Link to comment
YaBoyLaj Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 Yoshii! I forgot to ask! So, I have a 14 gallon that is EXTREMELY boring, Im running a small 5 gal. sump on it with a blade led light fixture on it. I have had the same watchman+pistol and yellow tail damsel for a year and a half now and i want a change so, i was thinking bout redoing the rock and removing the fish and turn it into a tank similar to yours all levels are stable, and the temperature stays around 76-79 depending on the day (no heater running atm) with your knowledge, would that setup be able to keep macro algae alive and healthy?

yoshii Posted March 21, 2016 Author Share Posted March 21, 2016 Looks great Yoshii and I love your new fishy friend Thanks! He's being super cute and has been hanging out in the front of the tank today Theres a good chance ill be there on friday haha I'm setting up my new temperate soon and I'm gonna grab some rocks down by the cove that wash up... I hope Aww I was thinking about going before then, cause I need to stop by Scripps and pick up some water. I love meeting NR peeps, if you're in the area shoot me a PM! The cove is a Marine Protected Area, so you're probably not allowed to get rocks from there. (plus they're all just mini boulders) Windansea Beach is just a little bit south and has lots of rocks and isn't in a MPA. Yoshii! I forgot to ask!

I'm not really familiar with that light, could you send me a link? I tried google but got a bunch of different results. The main things are lighting, fish poop/nutrients, and having no herbivores that will eat your macros. Currently I'm also not running a heater, and the temp does fluctuate a bit, but macros are hardy and don't mind. Quote Link to comment
