They just seem like they're shoved in the corner. Poor things, you should send them to me. 😉 1 Quote Link to comment

Would be a whole lot cleaner without the mangroves, but until I setup another tank for them, they’ll probably stay. 1 Quote Link to comment

I'd love to see some motion shots of the macro and gorg swaying around.... 1 Quote Link to comment

I almost wanted to ask why you have three tiny 'pineapples' on top of your light earlier - then I realized they were air plants. Love your scape though! 🙂 2 Quote Link to comment

True, the KPS is pretty well hidden by all the macroalgae, but the Nero 3 would stick out less than the KPS so should be completely hidden behind the filter box. Really stoked try this out - seems like the perfect nano-sized wavemaker. 4 Quote Link to comment
Tigahboy Posted October 6, 2020 Author Share Posted October 6, 2020 So the waspfish is super elusive. I'll see her every now and then when the lights are off, but hopeful she will eventually start coming out more. 🤞 Also, a Tanaka's Pygmy Possum Wrasse and a pair of Red Tiger Cleaner Shrimp are arriving today as well! Latest shots of this tank. 7 Quote Link to comment

Tigahboy Posted October 7, 2020 Author Share Posted October 7, 2020 This cotton candy algae is considered a pest, but love it in this tank. 3 Quote Link to comment
Tigahboy Posted October 7, 2020 Author Share Posted October 7, 2020 Also, got myself macro lens. Still learning how to use it, but here's a couple first attempts. 5 3 Quote Link to comment

I'm pretty excited as well! Wanted a macro lens for awhile now. The grape is pretty nice, but grows so so fast. I have to prune it pretty regularly or else it will take over the whole tank in a matter of weeks. 1 Quote Link to comment

To my surprise the wrasse swims out in the open quite a bit, so really fun to watch. Waspfish still hides 24-7 tho. 14 hours ago, mystersyster said: Bruh. Making me think twice about painting the back pane black... Yeah, I’ve always been a fan of clear backgrounds. Harder to hide equipment though. 2 Quote Link to comment
