Definitely getting more social and come to the front of the tank begging for food whenever I get close. 1 Quote Link to comment
scrappy34 Posted October 12, 2018 Author Share Posted October 12, 2018 Today I got some hermit crabs and 2 emerald crabs to help with cleaning up some of the extra food on the sand. I also got a firefish, but it's been hiding in the rocks for now. I'll try and get a pic later 1 Quote Link to comment

scrappy34 Posted November 27, 2018 Author Share Posted November 27, 2018 It's been a little over a month since I've updated. A few weeks ago I got a tail spot blenny and he's been doing great, slowly becoming my favorite. In addition to him I also purchased a Zoa pack from Cultivated Reef and a rainbow ricordia. Oh, and I got pods all over my glass and back wall, now sure how they got there, but I am happy! Here are some pictures, I need to find a better way to take pictures without so much color distortion from the LEDs. 1 Quote Link to comment

I turned the gyre to a different setting and turned the power down to 10%. It's been hiding inside of a cave for most of the day. Nice tank but what anemone? You put an anemone in the tank already?

How is the gyre pump doing for you? Is it too powerful? Quote Link to comment

The gyre has been great, I only use it on 20%, any more than that and it will blow my sand around. I got it so I can use it on a larger tank one day. Quote Link to comment
scrappy34 Posted December 29, 2018 Author Share Posted December 29, 2018 Update: my tank has been battling cyano for a couple of weeks, my guess is that I've been overfeeding. I've been feeding less and I got some Phosguard and Purigen to run in my overflow chambers. Quote Link to comment
scrappy34 Posted January 16, 2019 Author Share Posted January 16, 2019 New additions: -Maxima clam -Rock flower anemone -Hammer When everything opens up I'll post more pics Quote Link to comment
Andreww Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 How big is the clam? If its small, make sure you add some phytoplankton to the water and keep some nitrates and Phosphates detectable. Quote Link to comment

Keeping nitrates up hasn't been a problem, I usually have 10-15ppm lol. I plan on feeding some reef roids tomorrow also. Quote Link to comment
