My Spec V

Look forward to your corals growing out! Hope your tank stays up longer than last year. Was disappointed to see you get out. Glad you're back in.

Thanks Ron I'm hoping that too. I am going to set up a top off just need a pump for that and also need to get a refractometer since I was not able to win the one in the raffle today.

Here's a pic of the tank now. Feel free to dissect :)

 
Ok so up to now I'm running my tank without a clean up crew. Any suggestions on what I should get for this size tank? Maybe you have some you need/want to get rid of.
 
I had a bunch of bumblebee snails in mine which looked pretty cool and did a good job. Fishpros has them 10 for $15

cool thanks I'll go check out what they have tomorrow i know i need a clean up crew and yeah those bumblebee ones are pretty cool.
 
Dropped by FishPros, even though I was less than a mile away from the place on Piner ad got myself a small cleanup crew consisting of 2 hermits, 5 bumblebee snails and 1 nassarus.
 
Have not seen the hermits or nasarus for a few days now so I'm guessing they're goners. On the plus side I was able to save 2 maybe 3 heads of the keds red and my CARs finally opened up good and I'm seeing 2 bumps by the base.... Babies maybe?
 
The nassarius is a burrower, if you feed you'll see it burst out of the sand like a zombie. Hermits usually show up when they are least wanted in my experience, try putting a delicate coral in the tank and they'll show up to dance around on it, haha.
 
I did a big water change when i first noticed they were MIA.... Also need to beef up my cuc a bit more since i am getting a bit more algae on the glass and a bit on the rocks.
 
Stopped by fish pros after work and picked up 2 astria, 2 mini turbos and 1 sexy shrimp.... Was beat to a nice frag of candy apple pinks but the person who bought it said he will be joining wcr and promised me a frag :)
 
Got some new zoas in the mail today from an ebay order.... sinister and blue eyed girl zoanthinds.... also have 2 sexy shrimp and one head of inverted gorilla nipple.
 
Here is my CARs with a new baby coming about just starting to open its eye :) (sorry the baby is sleeping behind its mama)

 
here is one of my sexy shrimp in the middle of the pic and yes that is an aiptasia over its head i got from the last swap :(
