435 in wall DT up and running again

Yeah, I know they like cooler water, but how are you keeping below 79 in summertime without a chiller?
My tank will get to 83 in summer in hottest days

Thx for the responses Lawrence. Again the tank looks amazing.

Btw I didn't see the blue carpet, is it still there or did you get rid of it?
I want to add one, but I'm afraid since they can eat fish.

My Black tang, and cf lancelatous can be an expensive meal if they venture too close
 
it moves so much i advice against it unless you have a carpet anemone tank'
i lost my red and powder blue carpet in the power heads,high flow and carpet don't mixed.

Yeah I had one for about 2 years and it moved a couple of different times and stung the crap out of corals along the way. I finally got rid of it thankfully it didn't end up in a powerhead or anything like that.

Pick up couple of brown acropora today since the acropora is coloring up great so i thought i give some a try. I sold my smallest bandit to my buddy but added small flagfin and goldflake on its place.

Fish video soon

I just shutdown the qt few days ago but i always observe the fish in cupramine and prazipro. The goldflake and flagfin that i got last week got the quickiest observation since i am not getting fish for anyone else plus I dont qt for ick in my main tank since it will be always in my system unless i go fallow for 3 months just to get rid of ick. my fish are doing fine for a year just ick from the giant achilles and RIP hybrid PBT thats gets ick every 3 days so i sold them.My fish doesnt show ick now but i know its there but i am still do a lot of precaution i use satefy stop and prazipro dip before going to qt and display.

Is that a new pectinia by the yellow scroll? Looks really healthy.

Love the activity in your tank... Though I personally think it could use one or thirty more anthias. ;)
 
Shirley its a old pectinia its coming back to life after the 2 other bandits munch on it.

I want some more leopard and fairy wrasse too.
