SCA 90 rimless...a mountain reef build.

OK update time.

I did losse the
filamented flasher wrasse
And clown fish :(
Have not Seen my cleaner wrasse in a few days.
Might be molting or eaten.

I know I have a few pistols shrimp in there have an interesting burrow around a rock. Not sure if they would attach fish or just eat them once they pass.

Could not get the clown to eat.
Having the same trouble with my cannery Bennie and clown goby in the macro tank.

I did make a DIY m fish food from 4 types of fish and NLS pellets. The gramma and linespot wrasse love it.

And here is an update on the ATS:

Just left bit alone for a few weeks was not getting much growth and I think the bubbles were to far away from the "screen" light were left on 24/7 I did turn off for 2 days I think . Maybe a day and half.

So this is where it's at.

Full of nice turf alage. :)

Removed to clean and found it was grown on the sump glass.

The growth area is not 100% covered in turf yet but this is my 1st cleaning.
I just let it do its thing.

A nice hand full of green goodness.

And this is how I left it. Hoping it will spread it roots to all of the growth aera.

Most of the time.
Here is want is looks like now:

Looks like the center is to strong light for turf to grow.
Might spread out the legs more. Maybe not and just keep as is it seams to be working.

Welcome to the motorcycle crash club. I put mine down around 110 or so in a hard right hander at the track. Had full gear on though which saved my life and the back protector I wear is why I can walk to this day...
 
oh man. yeah that sounds crazy man.

mine was so avoidable too. silly really...could have been worse.

anyway i;ll foe sure get this write up on this controller started...maybe tomorrow..
 
And a FTS nothing to write home about yet. Still fighting HA but the ATS is starting to really kick butt.
