Good start. Just recommend getting rid of the grape caulerpa macroalgae ASAP! I accidentally left a few sprigs of it in my tank a few years back and now it is a never ending battle to keep it in check.

Not to worried about it.. It is only in my QT tank. Just stuff for the guys to nibble on. =)

I hope the tank had cycled before you put all these fish and corals in there!

FYI... that caul. algae will disolve and put a ton of nutes into the tank unless you keep the lights on 24/7. And that decorator crab could hurt corals. It'll actually cut pieces of coral and attach it to itself... so just be aware.

Looks good... have fun

Looking good!

I have a question though, how is the reef related selection in Anchorage?

Yes the tank cylced before I put stuff in. I aso have been testing ammonia, and nitrite 2x a day becasue the bio load is so high. SO far all zero! = )

I think I am going to end up keeping the crabs in the QT tank..

Good if you know the right people.. lol The Reef is my favorite store to shop at up here, and I am friends with the owner. She will find my what ever I am looking for. =)

I also just started a reef club up here Alaska Reefers I am still working on all of the legalities, and the website, but if you have any ideas.. let me know! =)
