    Thank you! I'm happy with the progression of the tank. One thing I noticed though is that the coralline algae that was growing before we moved has stopped snce the move and I havent seen much, if any regrowth of it. I guess I have to get it figured out..... I would like more in and around the tank as everything just looks kind of greenish without it.

    What made me change the lights out today was that the bulbs were old and I was noticing some nuisance algae creeping in. Upped the flow in the trouble spots and the new lighting should help.

    I was really hoping for more to show at the almost 1 year mark but I guess slow s good too. I just can't keep up with a reactor for this and concoctions for that.

    I was taking a look at the tank this morning and I noticed that my duncans tentacles or "whiskers" have little pinkish spots. Not flatworms, I already checked. Anyone else experience something like this? I'll try to get pics of it.

    Sorry for the pic quality....I just couldn't focus in enough. You can still see the darker patches on the tentacles. Tried brushing them off and seeing if they moved at all. Duncan is angry, LOL.

    They don't come off, I guess just different pigmentation?!
