LC Scott Posted March 22, 2011 Author Share Posted March 22, 2011 I also can count some Stomatella snails, and at least 5 mini brittle stars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jgf86123 Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 That's always a good sign man, means your tank is goin good. Just watch out for the worms, if you see some that look like bristleworms, but are reddish orange and the bristles are out 24/7, then they're bad LOL.

Ya with that much live rock that was transfered fast, you probably don't have to cycle much at all. Definitely get more smaller snails like he said. Looks good though man, you are doing awesome waiting like a champ!!! Too much waiting will kill your bacteria though. Are you registering 0 nitrates ? do you run any algae?

impur Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 Yah i think you didn't have much cycle at all. I did the same thing in my 60 cube, half rock from Garretts and half dry rock. I am at 16 days and still no ammonia or NO3. I went a step further and put a bunch of corals in there, and i'm feeding flake food daily also. Keep it up, your patience is definitely going to pay off with that tank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LC Scott Posted March 24, 2011 Author Share Posted March 24, 2011 I just found a eunicid worm in my tank.(nutty) Better now rather than later I guess. I'll post a pic as soon as I find away to get it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LC Scott Posted March 25, 2011 Author Share Posted March 25, 2011 So after finding out that club soda is a good way to get them loose from the rock, this is what I have left. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jgf86123 Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 Scott, it's kinda hard to tell, but it looks like it might be a blue leg, or electric blue or whatever it's called... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LC Scott Posted March 29, 2011 Author Share Posted March 29, 2011 The blue legs I have in the 20L don't have the blue striped antenna, that and wight sorta fuzzy legs. Thats why I'm have problems finding it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LC Scott Posted April 12, 2011 Author Share Posted April 12, 2011 Thought I would do some updates on my tank. Clown being a camera hog. http://s24.photobucket.com/albums/c15/fritoy911/Fish/?action=view¤t=2011-04-1122-39-11691.mp4 New Bubble tip from rose city. And a new Aussie Favia from Eds Reef. And an update on one of the sps that I picked up in a brown out sale. I've also added a four bar damsel and a yellow wrasse (I can't seem to get any good pics of those two. ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LC Scott Posted April 19, 2011 Author Share Posted April 19, 2011 With in an hour after I turned them on the tank temp dropped down to 79.5 (where I have the controller set) and stayed there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
