My 72 Mixed Reef (She's Coming Down)

Ok, Got it. I was really starting to seriously think about how/where to store my corals, nems and fish while I nuked the affected rocks, replaced the sand, and basically started over...

 

Nice idea on blasting the bryopsis instead of adding the Mg to the tank.

 

I'm messing around with photobucket today, so sorry about any redundant posts. I'm trying to figure out how to post full sized pics like I've seen others do.

 

Maybe this will work.

 

Here you go Steve. I'm pretty confident the bryopsis is all dead, but I'm gonna keep the Mg up for another week before a big water change. The big rock with the orange mushrooms was nearly taken over by bryopsis 3 days ago, and now look at it. And I know, I know about the GHA and Bubble Algae, working on it...:-[

Also had to move a few things around, my LTA went on a walkabout a few days ago and settled on the Hammer, and my big Kenya Tree has grown so much it was getting stuck against a powerhead. I thought my crocea would be happier perched on a rock. Got a baby purple Condy from my buddy who is a professional diving exotic collector.

The elevated Mg has bleached out my Glove Polyps, but hell thats a small price for not having to remove rocks and sand.

Scored a juvenile Chiseltooth Wrasse for $7.53 yesterday, they drive to Miami every 2 weeks and can get all kinds of weird stuff, had it labeled "blue striped wrasse", with no clue of it's true name or value.

I hope y'all like the close-ups, my dusty camera is 2004 Sony Cybershot 7.2.
;D;D;D

 

Bump,
Not close enough Steve W?

 

That rock full of red feather dusters is gorgeous!!!

 

took a while for all them pictures to download for me
worth waiting for IMHO
beautiful images and specimens , thank you

Steve

 

Love the anemone. Does it ever take a walk about and cause any damage?

id dont think i would ever keep one in my current tank again. My last attempt ended ina walkabout all over my torch killing 3 of its heads in the process.

That being said, i sometimes consider selling all my corals and just getting one big carpert anemone. A blue one.

 

Thanks

Thanks Steve
