Right side, you can see a discolored green digi
, a bleached orange digi , fire and ice, my GSP on the back wall, some gorilla nipples, some cool no name zoas and my ric.
Left side, you see more neon GSP, adn all the other frags are to small for this pic really
Feather duster and some neon GSP
Purple lace gorgonian, hasnt done much growing, starting to grow a new base... only one question, it will open up for maybe a week or two, then close for a week or two or three, it always looks healthy, is this normal?
Here is one of my button polyp colonies, started out as 5 polyps, now its over 20 in just about 3 months, i also have a single polyps turn into over 10, but its not in any pictures, also are my fire and ice zoos.
tank specs:
salinity-1.026
CA-~420ppm
nitrate/trite-0
phos-.2 (ill explain below)
ammonia-0
temp-79.2-80.1
Flow: 1 MJ Stream 400
2 175 GPH HOB filters, one is a "fuge" other is carbon, both are being replaced by a nice big HOB fuge and a skimemr soon
FIltration: abtu 45 lbs assorted rock, ~400ML carbon, small fuge, 5 gallon a week water changes
lighting, 150 watt DE pendant, 12K, dont liek the color, so i will be switching to a phoenix 14K soon, 130 watts PC actinic, 4-3/4 watt lunar LEDs
the tank recently crashed to heat, i lost all three of my fish, and my green slimer, an orange digi also RTN, but stopped, and seems to be turning around, the phosphates are why some of my SPS are a little duscolored or brown
the phosphates are a little high still, but they are much better then before, im goign to do a big 50% WC when i move the tank to its new stand
the new fish list will be:
hi-fin red banded gobey(maybe pistol shrimp also)
1 percula(maybe two, depends on other fish)
possibly 3 green chromis(depending on how many perculas)
any suggestions on cool fish would be great, im looking for a variety of colors, and cool fish to watch!
any advice, or input wil be greatly appreciated!
