Update to new arrivals

Well I just got home from work and sadly my fairy wrasse didn't make. I found her stiff as a board on the bottom of the quarantine tank.

On the other hand my frags look great. The zoa's opened up and look amazing and the frogspawn looks much better than when it arrived. It's starting to open up as well











Here is a short vid Frag update - YouTube

 

Looking good, Not sure what the lime green algae is but am curious as I have it growing on my pukani as well. I thought maybe some sort of green coralline but not positive.

 

Pg I thought the same thing coraline but I've never seen a bright green coraline before. I also thought it might be some type of sponge, although I have no idea where the sponge would have come from as I used reef savers. Let me know if you find out anything. I'll do the same if I find mor info. It's been growing that much I know

 

Yea it has to be something that survived in spore form on our dry rock sicne we both have it from BRS pukani

 

Day 2 frag update

Well the frags are looking better today day 2. Hope this progress continues.;D

 

New tank mates

Hey I just got these guys in today. Got them acclimated as well. The 2 fire shrimp and the yellow watchman goby are in the DT and the Tomini is in quarrantine. Can't wait to get home to see how everyone is doing.











If anyone is interest I'll post some youtube links later

 

You will only need one or two turbo snails in the tank. They are super efficient and that many will starve to death once the algae is gone.

 

Thanks vinny. I actually moved the to my refuge which is so overloaded with algae right now. When they are done there I'll moved the again. Any thoughts or tips on the other additions?

 

Well as I said before I lost the fairy wrasse. She didn't make. What a bummer. I order my stock from Aquatic Connection as I have had good result with prior orders. So I sent an email with a pic yesterday and sure enough they responded right away. Offered the replacement right away. ;D

That was certainly great to hear, so kudos to them for the fast response and standing by their guarantee. Honestly I thought I wouldn't hear back for a while as it is nearly impossible to get them on the phone. I'm sure glad they respond fast via email.

I'm taking a little road trip tomorrow and on the way back I already locoked up a couple of reef store that I will be stopping in on the way back. Might see something I like.

 

Nice to see everything coming along Ed. What kind of flow do you have your frogspawn in? I noticed all of my euphyllia loved to be in moderate to strong flow and really opened up once they got it.
