Update April 14th 

I have been fighting a small algae problem.   Not sure what type it is.  I’ve add a small pump and holding out on all futher corals until I get to the bottom of it.  I have some nice additions in my display tank. 

I Need to get a better camera! Someone had mentioned this to me   As I have some cool corals

Hey guys!  Our updates are due in like an hour.  Let's see 'em!  @Flash21@Bubbles@rdavis@Oregonic@Kingfisher

Here's mine.  I lost a couple of coral and, alas, my frogfish did not make it.  I might make some changes this coming week though.

That looks so clean! Too bad I snagged the little coral croucher that came in yesterday. Well, too bad for you, he would have been perfect for that tank.

I feed with tongs anyway. It helps keep the little tank clean. It was too cute to not bring  home.

It looks like a few people actually missed the 5pm deadline and I just want paying close enough attention. I'm giving everyone a pass for the week and letting bubbles get a picture posted tonight and move forward. 

Please get updates posted by 5pm for the next one. I'll only be lenient this once.

4/28 update

After Sunny and Marshmallow dying.  I had to re think the tank situation. I thought pipe fish but only eats pods.  So we decided to get a 🔥 🦐 and call it good! 

I did add in some new corals. 

The GSP are growing like Crazy! The Grand Paly has two new babies, Oompa Loompas have 3 new heads, JF stargazers have 4 new heads, everything is doing really well. 

Alage is all gone! 

 

Enjoy the Pics

Here's my update. I've been out of town for the last week so nothing really has happened. I gave it a quick cleaning this morning. I'm going to add some more corals in the next week or two and hopefully get a fish.e0cd813caabdba08fe66313a160b3678.jpg078efb30d83a94bf3b0e1a4b98f5f333.jpg3b5c1579f8b1cc09152ae928d797ad3b.jpg

Punchbowl is looking better this week. I stocked it up with some zoas and mushrooms last week, along with a flower nem from the group buy. I also got three sexy shrimp, one of which went to the big sexy in the sky. I've got some red algae on the sand bed again-- time for a water change!
