    Looking good! Nice to see all of the red coralline algae growing. Keep it up.

    Just put in a Six Line Wrasse, Horseshoe Crab, two polyps of Ricordea, and a small stalk of Xenia.

    The Wrasse is just awesome! Beautiful colors and it is really fun watching him go through all the holes. I think he is still learning his size though cause he can barely make it through some of the holes he is trying lol.

    My Mother wanted the Horseshoe Crab and it is pretty sweet looking, but I'm not too attracted to it. It buried itself somewhere so I don't know where it went. My Father likes it cause he wants to have a bunch of scavengers in the tank.

    She also liked the Ricordea she saw saw we got two polyps and it is about to bud so hopefully we will have three. It has a neon green center with the rest being a dark red.

    I probably should of asked for a bigger stalk of Xenia, but hopefully it will grow and spread. It wasn't pulsing at the store, but now it is in my tank so that makes me happy.

    I will post pictures in a little bit, just wanting everything to get settled in a bit before I started flashing them with the camera.

    I released the perch a couple days after the post.

    I installed a Coralife 33000 Skimmer today, I guess it is working. Some bubbles spill over the cone occasionally.
