Are you going to put a Cyphastrea on the skull?

 

[Jjdurrant]

I should

Quick video of the aF4 in action with Alexa. I know, $$$ but having a week or two of frozen food ready is awesome. Still tweaking the DOS amount and slurry consistency. But overall I am impressed.

Buddy you are a true gear junkie
Love it

Hey all! Tank is doing great. I made a few dosing changes recently that I feel has helped overall. First, started adding trace elements. A- and K+. And I switched my AFR dosing to three times a day vs one big dose. Not sure it matters but I read it can help keep things even more stable. CBB is doing great and eating well. I did recently lose my diamond goby. Not sure why, but @Crum got me hooked up with a Gold Head Sleeper Goby. Cool fish.

Yep!

Nice! Emily I wish I had put in a conditioned CBB before I added the tang gang. With 4 tangs and a fox face they are pretty established.
The last time I tried adding one the Yellow Tang went nuts and killed it. This is after I released it from the peacemaker / seperation box

 

[reef junkie]

That looks awesome. Nice job!

 

[Varig]

That looks awesome. Nice job!

He’s alive!!!!!!! Starting a new tank soon?

 

[Jjdurrant]

Yeah the CBB and Yellow Tang were fiesty for a few weeks. It took days of acclimation box, mirrors and 3d printed decoys. All appears well now though.

I think I will have to rehome the Blue Hippo soon.. the 110 just is not enough room.. He is prob 4"+ inches. So thinking in the next 6 months. No idea how I am going to catch him though lol And I am arguably overstocked anyway at the moment.

 

[Jjdurrant]

That looks awesome. Nice job!

Stop over soon!

 

[Jjdurrant]

Another quick update!

Finally had to rehome my blue hippo.. thanks @Crum for taking him. He tripled in size in just under a year. I plan to replace with a whitetail kole tang!

Also added a snowflake eel.. he has been hiding still but really excited about him. I also added a layer of CaribSea Arag-Alive Special Grade Sand over my Fiji Pink. Def helps with sand blowing around and I like the look.
