mitten_reef Posted November 22, 2019 Author Share Posted November 22, 2019 A major development: Just spotted my female clown rubbing on the red goniopora tonight. she didn’t stick around long. But definitely looks like she is getting acquainted with it. We’ll see if it becomes a regular thing. 5 Quote Link to comment

Been trying to cull my frag collection down to one rack, haha. Hopefully, I won't even need a rack soon. On a not so good note, caught my stupid pygmy angel nipping at my new clam, that little bastard! It was fine for 2 weeks, then this weekend it started. 2 Quote Link to comment
pokerdobe Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 You rescaped this weekend? I did too. How did it go for you? For me, it was a tedious, frustrating affair, full of cursing, breaking colonies and overall disaster. 2 Quote Link to comment

For me, it was a tedious, frustrating affair, full of cursing, breaking colonies and overall disaster. My scape re-do has been in-progress for a while. Picked up this rock since August because the shape lends itself to the Bommie style quite nicely. So I’ve been slowly glueing frags on to it the last month or so. All the while, purging frags from the tank floor and the rack. By the time I’m done, I hope not to have any frag rack in the tank, and very minimal amount of corals on the tank floor. Hoping to have it done by new year, hahaha. 6 Quote Link to comment

What tank are you thinking of upgrading to???? She said she was eyeing a white Red Sea reefer that is about $1500, thinking that might be 170, or 250 at best. So I told her I’m also interested in Waterbox Frag 60.3 that’s on clearance right now. 1 hour ago, spectra said: Going big ?

Stopped by LFS. Got a 4+” Millie colony for $65! 2 Quote Link to comment

mitten_reef Posted December 1, 2019 Author Share Posted December 1, 2019 Here’s the token bad iPhone pic for when the $65 Millie was added to the tank. It’s pinkish with green highlights, so pretty good potential. The orange scan below is on a 2” tile for size reference. 7 1 Quote Link to comment

How did you even glue it??? 1 Quote Link to comment
