I have V3 curing right now. I’m trying something different with a 2part welding. The only thing is that the 2part solvent makes the joints super ugly

 

 

Janky joints FTW!

I changed the “platform” a bit I’m kind of digging the yellow bottom 

 

other news the arch is doing good in the corner of the 160 while V3 finishes bacteria cycle. Still have all the zoanthids but one decided to vanish.. the palythoa grandis .

So since this little tank has been through some challenges and changes. But I will have it back to the way it was on Friday, minus the pistol shrimp 🦐 

 

I finally got my generic lid made with p95 clear

Looks good. Sorry about the pistol shrimp I didn't realize that besides the tank you had a livestock loss. Glad you are moving forward.

No didn’t “lose” the shrimp 🦐 it’s just there is now way I’m going to be able to pull him out of the 160g. It’s under a bottom rock structure that supports two other larger structures.

Well everything is back to the way it was minus the pistol shrimp and the cespitularia (it grew a lot in the 160) 

im going to have to frag it if I’m wanting a piece for the nano

everything is back into the swing of things and I have been hoping to have a hard coral in this little tank so I’m trying out some birds of paradise seriatapora (birdsnest) it is looking good under the sunny d zoanthids which it grew 1 more polyp.

Yes I really like aqua illumination lights I have them on all my systems. Plus I can control them all with my phone.

Thanks I have got to try to keep my hands out of it. I have been using a eye dropper to dust off the arch. For someone reason it keeps accumulating detritus. 😫 14in long tweezers are a god send. 

 

(please ignore all pest majanos and aiptasias)

I’m debating on dipping the rock. But I’m hesitant cause of the AWC. 😬

so what should I do about the algae? Maybe add a astrea or two more Ceriths?

 

i thought about this one living on the edgeD1307AF8-A18B-4D1B-B0D9-FF5C6CB98199.thumb.jpeg.4e85c4753d6729dd6fdfd9bdfb1955e2.jpeg
