    Thought I would share my new additions. I bought a lettuce nudi, just thought I'd give it a try and I really think they are cute. I also got a doughnut coral aka meat and cats eye coral. I love this coral, at night it's polyps come out and they look like spikes! Now I have to figure out where to put it in my tank:-/

    Very nice. I really like meat corals. You'll want to cover your powerheads if they aren't already because that nudibranch will find it eventually.

    Oh, and clean that coralline off your glass nemo!!! :lol:

    You'll be sorry! :lol:

    Right about Easter time, Tangster's son-in-law came for a visit and commented that for the first time ever, he has seen a "Tangster" tank that didn't have much coralline in it. JINX! Not four months later and we have to scrape it constantly. I'll get him for that :lol:

    My brain is doing very good. Colour is starting to come back, it swells up alot now and I have seen it's polyps extending at night.

    Yes I have to scrape the coraline but my scraper is broken so I have to get a new one. Don't wish for too much coraline as once it starts it doesn't stop. My perameters are great, my only problem is the hair algae.

    The nudi is cool but yes it has already gone to a powerhead this morning, don't know if I will come home to a mutilated nudi or not. I had a doc appt this morning and couldn't move the little guy. You think they would know that PH are their enemies but I guess not.

    I though brains were supposed to be placed on the substrate rather than high in the tank?
