Mike's 26g bow Mixed Reef - New goodies!

Well here is an update. Had some issues at the end of december and through january. Lost the vast majority of my LPS corals to either BJD or RTN. Still don't know which one or if it was related to my bacteria bloom. But now with my chaeto growing like crazy and my UV running 24/7, my water quality is great.

I'm so OCD when it comes to my rock scape that I changed it once again. Removed two rocks and tried to open up more rock real estate for coral.

I wish I was having as good of luck with my scooter. He is getting skinny and wont even eat live copepods.

 

Hope I don't offend you but...I liked your first rock scape a lot more.

 

Don't find that offensive at all, haha.

My wife liked the old one too. I've been slowly gettig rid of my lower quality rock. My last scape just didn't have enough places to set coral near the bottom, so I wanted to free up some space. I'll probably hate it in a month.

 

I won some livestock in recent auctions with Reef Pets and AquaSD and then bought some more frags when I was picking up my AquaSD winnings, lol. Here are some pics

Look really good man! I love your scape and that size tank. Im looking forward to see what else you do with your little slice of the reef.

 

You have some really nice looking corals.

 

Thank you

Thank you! I wish the hammer and frogspawn were the same color from the store. Both were blue, looked awesome.

 

I'm sure the coloring is just a lighting issue honestly.
