72 gal Bowfront Build

Be careful so you don't pester it by bumping it and it releases it's spores.

 

I just pulled it from the tank and jabbed it with it syringe and lemon juice then let it sit for a few minutes then returned it to the tank. I am going to pick up some peppermint shrimp maybe a butterfly fish tomorrow for future controll.

 

picked up 2 peppermint shrimp today to help if I get anymore aipstaisa. I havent seen the other one come back after the lemon bath last night. Here is a few more pictures from last night before the lemon juice.











The last picture was some purple star polyps, but I haven't seen them for a few days now. Is that normal? The rock was knocked down from where it originally was, I am guessing it was the turbos.

 

Just noticed some of my hermits have coraline on them.

 

Hey everyone, so I decide to add some rock up front because I needed more places to put coral. I picked up a bunch of zoas and other assorted items from a buddy of mine. Any help with ID ing the zoas would be appreciated. Pictures taken about 20 min after light came on, I'll post more later tonight after light has been on for a while.









Clown has to try to be in every picture






And here is the current FTS, taken about an hour ago at lunch.


Well that's all for right now, but my LFS just posted on facebook that he's discounting all saltwater stuff 25-50% until thursday to make room for new arrivals. Might have to see if he has a corris wrasse or some type of goby or blenny. Anyways thanks for looking and have a good one!!

 

I just read through the thread. The tank is looking awesome!

 

Thanks, I know some people like alot of sand showing, but I, obviously, am more partial to alot of rock. I hope that in a few years all the rock will be covered in various stuff.

 

I really like shallow sand beds. It's a lot safer, in case you stir something up. I like both rock walls and minimalist scapes. I'm sure your tank is going to keep getting better and better

 

At least you haave a fish that doesn't mind the camera...mine all scatter & hide as soon as they see it. How the heck do they even know? Because normally they come to the front begging for food.

 

Tank is looking great.
