Sorry guys, been busy with work and not much of anything new had been happening with the tank...
We had a crazy outbreak of hair algae since our one armed emerald went belly up. I got a replacement, and he seemed to prefer the seaweed and mysis instead of the hair. Last week I bought a second emerald and the tank is starting to clean up nicely. There is one rock that I think I might just replace because it is looking like it's beyond mowing.
I received an email from Dr. Fosters this week and was "just going to look" since the large tank is on hold til I get the tax return, but looking never seems to be enough. I wound up ordering some zebra hermits, a pink/blue star, and a clingfish. Then, because I was "in the mood" I went to vivid aquarium's site and ordered another white lightening sponge and a red monti cap. So much for waiting on purchases til the big one is up. =)
My "old stuff" is doing great!
My sun polyps have three new heads along the top.
My pulxing xenia grew another branch.
I added another rock for my gps to grow on.
My ricordia was used as a decoration by the BSJ and I had thought it was gone... just found it last week when I rescaped some of the rock and it is bleached out, but fine.
My yellow polyps are my only "uh-oh". They seriously disappeared one by one right off the plug; I'm wondering if something was hungry or if it had some kind of chemical disagreement with the xenia or toadstool?? When I removed the naked plug, I switched out the chemi-pure and purigen for a new batch.
When the new stuff arrives, I will post some pictures.
Thanks for the interest!!!
