Looking good!!!!

 

Thanks! I saw all my notifications and my faith that my thread hadn't totally died was restored! lol but anyway, yeah, it looks a lot better, adding my sea hare was the best decision I've ever made :D

As for the hair algae, nesquik is doing a hell of a job! Corals are puffy and have great PE and fish are plump and happy :)

 

All is well in the FrogFish reef :P

Today was not a good day in the reef :( My sea hare was found dead inside my pistol's burrow... Guess he got curious and Sher Kahn didn't have it. I could not reach the hare so I had to tear down 2/3 rocks and fit them back into place. Did a 10g water change and turned the lights off. Right now my skimmer is shitting itself it's working so hard and my water is still cloudy from all the silt. The last thing is the Saddest, My harlequin shrimp, Joker must've gotten spooked when I took the top rock out and landed on the floor, I didn't see him at the time because I was so concerned with carefully getting the rock with my main corals on it out. After putting the rock in I found him, on the floor so I picked him up and lowered him to his "spot" that's when I noticed his 2 front left legs were gone. I will be dosing iodine and calcium over the next few months to ensure that he molts and grows them back. I feel so bad for him, but he's a trooper. If there is any good in this it is that I found a small patch of bubble algae and successfully removed all four bulbs without popping them and found my long lost and thought to be dead ricordia which has now turned all highlighty and whatnot. I'm leaving for NorCal tonight so I'll have my mom keep me updated while I'm gone.-TPF

Wow, I hope Joker pulls through! Glad everything is OK.

Thanks teeny! He's fine and is still cruising around the tank :) I'm sure he'll be fine

While checking the reef out tonight I noticed something that made me so happy, it kinda scared me :P I found 6 baby acans! All of them are extremely small, but definitely babies! :D I'll post a pic when my camera decides to finish charging :P

The zoa is still getting used to his tank, not opening too much

The ceriths are here and had a busy night! They're scattered throughout the tank and munching away. My new zoa is opening a little more and my fish and corals alike, are happy. I probably will not be adding anything for a while and let the snails do their job. Just my water changes and dosing when needed. And if I do cave... Which I probably will, it'll just be some GSP glued to the back of the tank or some more hermits. In the next month or two, whenever I get money I plan to get a pair of spotted anemone shrimp from KP. At MACNA or RAP I plan to get 2 more mini maxis and some Acans. Which totally contradicts what I said before, but I didn't specify how long before I added anything ;) until July 31st :)

OH YEAH! I almost forgot! I found 2 little stubs on Joker, HIS LEGS ARE COMING BACK! :D yay
