I was sure I would collapse the reef and crush the cup. But...... Yay!!!!!! IN ONE PIECE! I used a hammer and a scalpel in the tank and chopped it loose. Now it will live on in the 75 gallon. It’s about 4” x 4” which is huge for a tank that is only 8” deep! Wow, what is that? LPS? I love it. 4 1 Quote Link to comment

Opotter Posted January 16, 2020 Share Posted January 16, 2020 I’ve always loved that piece in your tank! It will look fantastic in the bigger tank. Can’t wait to see how big the thing ends up being! I may need to add that to my list of corals I want to try. 2 Quote Link to comment

She hasn’t bit me since that Sebae was in the tank but I don’t trust her at all. 3 Quote Link to comment

StinkyBunny Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 Clowns are great fish in a tank/biotope set up specifically for them. My ritteri system was a coral run, but they took it over with 20 Blackfoot clowns. It's an old run that I decided was too small and tall, 6 ritteri anemones and the Blackfoot clowns took over. There's now 9 ritteris in there with the clowns, they split a few times. Still trying to figure out what triggered them to split. I wouldn't reach into that tank if I dropped a $100 bill in there, those bastards are ferocious, especially when they have eggs, they will bark at you too. 1 1 Quote Link to comment

Both of my clown pairs have males. The males are lazy and never do anything to me (how TYPICAL). It's the female that protects her zone. 2 Quote Link to comment

Smaller damsels can click, croak, and purr a bit too - mostly they keep it quiet and bicker with each other in indoor voices thankfully XD 3 Quote Link to comment
