Emerald525 Posted June 1, 2015 Author Share Posted June 1, 2015 Here's a picture. I took all the frags off the plugs and glued them to rock rubble. Clown goby is hiding! The nuclear winters are already open up! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the rock structure you have going on...actually lots of little spots for different environment types.Thanks Isaac ! Yes I was trying to make some shade spots for chalices down the road because the Maxspect spreads out to the entire tank. I haven't completely ruled out a few sps in the higher rock areas but we shall see!???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emerald525 Posted June 12, 2015 Author Share Posted June 12, 2015 New Additions: Stopped by Cuttlefish and corals! He has some great aussie corals! It's a good thing I only have a Nuvo. Rodrigo passed away.. not sure what happened but just stopped eating. Did not show signs of ick and the clown goby and Madeline are doing fine. Rest in peace Rodrigo... Madeline looked lonely so I picked up a blacker ice and Jeff gave me the sale price. Madeline was thrilled and took to him right away! My experience with clownfish is you will know pretty quickly if they will pair up and Madeline started turning on her side saying welcome! //s991.photobucket.com/user/Emerald525/media/Fusion%2020/DSC03877.ARW_zpswo8sjbzv.jpg.html][/url] He kind of looks like he is wearing a bandana to me! Also got this nice Aussie hammer and ricordia! And this cool sand sifting snail... Can't remember the name.. butterscotch? Took the picture before it disappeared! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emerald525 Posted June 14, 2015 Author Share Posted June 14, 2015 (edited) Just wanted to post some updates. Here's a few pics. [/url] My plan is not to buy any more corals for at least 2 to 4 weeks and let these settle and grow. Mattv is going to get me a few frags and I still am getting some from Badxgillen for trade of equipment. Let's see if that lasts lol. I'm sure Jeff, Garrett or Rudy will have something to tempt me along the way! Edited June 14, 2015 by Emerald525 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteRock Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 Looking good! Sorry to hear about Rodrigo. :( I can't name my fish or they die within 48 hours. Its bad luck in my tank! I thought it was a zoa tank but now I see all sorts of stuff in there. If there is anything I can contribute please let me know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it was a zoa tank but now I see all sorts of stuff in there. If there is anything I can contribute please let me know. Thanks Pete! I guess zoa dominated would be the more correct term. THere's just too much cool stuff in the ocean to limit myself.. Yeah not sure what happened with Rodrigo but Rodrigo part II is doing really well. I actually like that I got a black ice and blacker ice they kinda look like our pnwmas logo now! Not sure if you have any zoas or softies but I am always looking for those. Actually maybe even consider sps down the road since yours are the low alk resistant strain Edited June 15, 2015 by Emerald525 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great pics, what a fantastic tanks as expected from a seasoned pro. Wanted to say, thanks for pointing out the females accepting behavior of laying on her side. All my coral is out of the tank right now or dead. The percula clowns are a tad distraught as they had tons of LPS to host before. They are searching for a new home. Anyways, just noticed the female laying on her side as the male approached. I guess they are committed no matter what, model of a great relationship and commitment . Without your post I would not have picked up on that cool behavior. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry to hear about all your coral but glad to see you keeping a positive attitude. Well it helps to have had a tank with about 14 clowinfish in it in the past. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
