    Well I think it's really cool.

    I post links to liveaquaria all the time. I believe as long as it's relevant to the topic it's ok.

    The tank looks bigger than 20 gallons.

    And no I can not get my snails to line up 2 by 2 no matter how I torture them. Guess I will have to try harder. : -)

    well in that case

    Drs. Foster and Smith Diver's Den® - Halcurias carlgrenis


    and i'll tell you how to line up the snails if you ID my zoas :]


    cosmo to answer your question all my fish and corals with the exception of my anemone like around 72-80's and the anemones like 60-70 degree's so I've been keeping my tank at 71 right now, and I think everything is doing fine, all my corals seems to be doing well, still vibrant in color and they all have been growing fine.... I tried to place corals in area's in currents that made them happy and since that anemone doesn't like lots of light, I have him in a more of shaded lower current area...

    this pic is from a few weeks ago so this pics a little out of date, I've bought a few more pounds of live rock and re-arranged things since, but hopefully this will hold you over until I take some decent pictures lol...

    wooops....lol



    hey guys do you have any suggestions on what to get for my CUC, I think it would be a bit less work for me every PWC if I further enhance my CUC.....so far all I have is:
    2x Astraea Snails
    2x Cerith Snails
    2x Nassariuas Snails
    + maybe a few hitch hikers

    p.s. my tanks only a 20 gallon

    Cool tank. Looks very healthy. You can go to reefcleaners.org and fill out the form, John can recommend and hook you up with some more CUC.
