ninjamyst Posted February 20, 2017 Author Share Posted February 20, 2017 $34, can't help myself. Lost my orange and green plate when I first started the reefer so I am glad to have another plate now. And more petsitting this weekend... 12 Quote Link to comment
tibbsy07 Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 Stopped by an LFS today while taking some stuff to our new place and they had some nice plates. Never thought of putting them in a tank myself but they are great looking coral! 1 Quote Link to comment

Never thought of putting them in a tank myself but they are great looking coral! I love plate corals! I had an orange one before and now a green one. Their pure fluorescent colors are strong even under ordinary "daylight" settings, and they make a great sand bed addition. On 2/18/2017 at 4:53 PM, ninjamyst said: Went to LFS today for some snails. Came out with orange plate and super bright yellow sand anemone.... I almost always spend more than I intend to when visiting the LFS. 1 Quote Link to comment

I'd love one, but my 3 leopards bury anything not mounted on the rock work. 2 Quote Link to comment
ninjamyst Posted February 21, 2017 Author Share Posted February 21, 2017 Sold a lot of corals this week...trying to make room in the tank and declutter the tank. 23 hours ago, tibbsy07 said: Stopped by an LFS today while taking some stuff to our new place and they had some nice plates.

My yellow coris and orange diamond goby have been burying my acans and chalice...but i know where they sleep now so I just have to rearrange stuff once in awhile. 4 Quote Link to comment
DaveFason Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 Plate coral looks great. I have seen a few variations lately that are mind blowing. Tank also looks great 1 Quote Link to comment

pokerdobe Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 So have you bought any new coral yet since you sold alot? 1 Quote Link to comment
ninjamyst Posted February 23, 2017 Author Share Posted February 23, 2017 So far, I have sold: 7 inches ponape birdsnest colony because it keeps falling off the rock shelve 5 inches pink and purple chalice because it was taking too much sandbed space Pink Stylo that never colored up for me Magician paly frags Also convinced a friend to start up a 30 gallon reef. Felt bad afterwards so gave him a bunch of zoa frags and GSP. Slowly getting rid of stuff! I haven't seen my two cleaner shrimps for weeks. I fear they died but I never found their body. What will eat cleaner shrimps????? New FTS. Yellow sand anemone. So adorable with blue tips. Looks like a sebae to me.... RFAs Lots of Sunny Ds One of two full frag racks. 12 Quote Link to comment

mitten_reef Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 Do I see something (gsp?) climbing up the back left corner in the fts? Also, do you have a recent topdown shot of the ric island to share? Pretty please. 1 Quote Link to comment

Yup, I tried so hard to prevent them from getting onto the back wall and glass but they just grow so damn fast in this tank. Will try to get a shot of the rics soon. I lost a few to the red gonipora stinging them, that's why the red gonipora is now on the rock shelf. But a few of the rics split so I am still in the positive =P. 2 Quote Link to comment

I have a feeling there's a silent killer in my tank...or maybe its the huge "nano" red brittle starfish I have? Its easily 10 inches across now. Quote Link to comment

My snails were dying at an alarming rate, and I thought it was just nature taking it's course. Turned out I had a polyclad flatworm about the size of my hand hiding in my rocks. Ugh... makes me shudder to remember it. But then, because I can't kill a living thing on purpose, once I caught it, I kept it in a gallon jug with an airstone and a few rocks on my counter. It was in jail for a few months and then I finally tossed the whole thing in a dumpster! 3 Quote Link to comment
