I decided to keep the tank and stuff for now, sorry

sorry, I just got rid of the zoas today.

The foxface is probably 6 inches long. I think that he is fully grown.

I have decided to hang on to my equipment but I still need to find homes for the fish. Foxface Rabbit fish (2 years+) - 15$ Female Clarkii Clown fish (3 years - My first fish) - 10$ Engineer Goby (4 inches) - 10$ 4 x community damsel fish of some kind - 2.50$ each All the fish - 30$

I am not sure how best to share images so I dropped them into a folder on my Google Drive. Take a look here if you are interested - Sorry the pictures are not very good, and obviously the color is off due tot he flash. https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B7PEvZ2msD9dSTRVUU1JeklqcEE&usp=sharing Everything looks pretty neglected in there, but the fish are healthy (as far as I can tell), and the corals that didn't get crowded by the algae are doing great. Zoanthids that were covered in algae are waking up and should be just fine. Please let me know if you have any other questions

I am located in Milwaukie. It seems like people would like some pictures (which makes sense), so I will try to post some tonight after work.

You are right. I had forgotten. It is the Reef Octopus DNW 200. It is a recirculating skimmer, outside the sump, beside the tank.

It never got that developed, so It doesn't have the pronounced wrinkles, but I think that it is basically the same. The polyps are not extended at the moment. I have two varieties though. The short polyp one is white-ish. It hasn't fully extended itself in a while. The longer polyp one is more like a green yellow in the polyps. Hope that helps.

All the fish seem healthy, but whoever ends up with the live rock will have to contend with the algae. I hope that it is worth it for the price, but I don't want it to be a surprise.

I have tended my 90 gal reef tank for just short of 3 years, but it is time to move on. It has been fun. I will list the prices of the big pieces, but I am looking to get rid of everything. Let me know if you want to see pictures of anything. Livestock - Note: I have had a hard time with hair algae lately. There will be some on all of the rocks, though I am trying to clear it away for the most part, before I sell. Foxface Rabbit fish (2 years+) - 15$ Female Clarkii Clown fish (3 years - My first fish) - 10$ Engineer Goby (4 inches) - 10$ 4 x community damsel fish of some kind - 2.50$ each All the fish - 30$ Other Finger Leather Coral (Cladiella) I am guessing, but I think that is what it is. It is almost 12 inches across - 50$ Tree Coral (Lemnalia) guessing again. Expands as high as about 12 inches, and nearly as wide - 40$ Leather Coral (lobophytum). About 4 inches across - 25$ Toadstool Coral (Sarcophyton) I have short polyp and long polyp and will sell them together. The short polyp has not been fully extending his polyps lately, but there are 3 distinct long polyp colonies - 20$ Mushroom corals - Lots of mushroom polyps and (I think Rodactis) - 1.50$ each Lots of zoanthids and green star polyps - 5$ - 15$ per rock Brittle Star Fish and snails - 5$ All the livestock, coral, rock, etc - 150$ Obviously I need to find homes for all of the livestock before I sell the equipment. 90gal glass tank with overflow - 150$ Black fitted stand - 50$ 30gal (I think) sump - 25$ Reef Octopus OTP-3000 Skimmer - 100$ Current 8 bulb T5 light (Extreme Pro I think) bulbs are less than 6 months old - 150$ Return Pump - 50$ 2 small pumps (for mixing water and phosban reactor) - 20$ each Phosban Reactor 150 - 25$ RODI system - 50$ All the equipment - 500$ Buy everything I have - 600$

So I lost power for about 4 hours last night. I ended up running an extension cord from the running car (which has a 120v plug in it) to a Koralia powerhead in the tank. I figured that moving the water around, and disturbing the surface of the water somewhat was going to be better than nothing. The car didn't put out enough amps to power the recirculating pump. The tank is 90gal so I wasn't too worried about the temperature falling too far, too fast. I am wondering, what would you have done in this case? I probably would have gone to something more drastic if I thought that the power outage was going to last longer, but I really don't know what that would be. Things seem to be back to normal and healthy this morning. Crisis averted.

One of my two Clarkii clownfish has adopted the new anemone. I thought that the two were a pair, but she doesn't seem to want to share. My hope is that she will help the anemone, but she may be a little hard on it. Ideally I think that the anemone would be larger in comparison to her length. Do clownfish actually feed their host anemones?

I will try to get a pic tonight. We'll see how much it moved during the day. The foot looked good to me, but I don't really know what I would be looking for. It appeared to be sticky.

I have 6 - 54watt t-5s on the 90 gal tank. Am I right in categorizing that as "Moderate" for a tank this size?

Thanks Garrett, I didn't expect to get much in the way of encouraging feedback. It was sticky when I put it in the tank last night, and it stayed in the same place all night. It seemed happy enough. I intend to try to feed it in a couple of days, and then do that every other day or so.
