I know, I was laughing myself when i first played it back.
Lol! Yeah, that light is kicking butt.
Thanks!Sure enjoy your video'sThat is one large clump you pulled out for sure! Reminded me of the tomato bin refugium's I ran back in the 90s with 250 watt 5500k bulbs. Your fish room turned out sweet too looks like a LAB in there
No kidding.
.5ppm nitrates is the highest I've tested so far. P04 is low too.

Dennis, if I remember correctly, you've said you don't do anything special for sand maintenance, you just let the critters from TBS do all the work? Do you have any observations as to which of the animals from Richard provide the most function? It looks like maybe the tiger tails are the real work horses?

Yes, but occasionally snails and crabs need to be replenished. The cucumbers do a lot of work with the sand and the serpents are great scavengers. But I'm currently looking for a sand sifting goby to help. I have areas where the surface of the sand is unmoving and has that bright green staining algae.

Thanks man, I just bought a package from Richard for a small 20 gal I have. I'm still waiting on part two, but I really like what I see so far in part one. I'm considering adding some sand to my main tank which is BB currently, but I've always had such a hard time keeping sand clean in the past I'm reluctant. But I really like the idea of a self sufficient sand bed.

Try a fighting conch. I have 2 and they are awesome on the sand bed. They feed 24/7 seems like and my sand bed has never looked better.

So I took my little minion reefer in training for a ride this morning... His first airport pickup!
I had two boxes waiting for me from Richard at Tampa Bay Saltwater.
One box was a "color refresh". More sponges and gorgs and stuffs.
The tall orange one in back, the red finger sponge in the middle, the orange lettuce shaped one below that and the yellow ball sponge up front.
Another red sponge...
This one is cool and I think a first for me... the formation is more flower-like.
A big purple sea fan in the back...(already had the other gorgonians you see)
This cool starfish...
And a big gorgonian and cluster of wild zoas that put in my mangrove tank.
But the big surprise and whole reason for this shipment... is in the other box.... but I can't tell yet!!!
I will be posting a separate thread for that.
If you're at all familiar with TBS rock, you'll be amazed. I know I was.
More info soon!
