Puffer Chick's 46 Gallon Bowfront Reef

just got my inverts got them temp acclimating now last night i also ordered a fiji purple bulb and a tek light hanging kit from aquatraders

 

Hey puffer, was reading a few post back and you mentioned your wrasses having ick. I recently purchased some selcon to try feeding to my tank. The day after I got it in my sailfin started having a few ick spots show up on her. By soaking her food in selcon and garlic, within 3 days there were no signs of ick. I also upped my feedings to everyday to try and boost her health while she had the ick. Just an idea that might be worth a try. Also your tank is looking great! I Love that bubble coral.

 

yea the wrasses have been going through some ick, ive been using garlic with my once a day feedings, ill see if i can find some selcon. Thanks for the tip

hahaha and thanks deffiently is a nice bubble im glad i made it happy again

 

paprika and blossom are doing much better both are out swimming and getting along pretty well, both have ick and nipped fins but are getting better

got my inverts today, i got some more ceriths, nassarius, hermits, limpets and more shells and the hermits are already loving the new shells got some pics of one changing, pretty cool. And my fiji purple bulb has been shipped




and he's in his new home

 

Cool my poor blue legs need some shells too...so I'm gonna need to order some when I get some snails. Cool you caught it in the act though.

 

yea it was cool i caught him doing like push ups and i was like WTF then i noticed he was changing shells so i quickly snapped a pic.

but i dont like my hermits they have been eating my limpets, so i stuffed the limpets in some holes i hope i can save them from being eaten

 

I saw mine change shells once but the camera was too far away...plus I didn't want to miss it. I didn't know they'd eat big snails too! Ceriths yeah if there are no extra shells, which I'll have more soon.
Mmmmm mine better behave themselves.

 

lol of course they like to make things difficult for you. And yea they are know to be aggressive so that's just something to watch out for lol mine are loving the new shells i have already seen a couple that have changed overnight, i didnt have any left and ordered a bunch so now i have a bunch of shells spread out ontop of my sandbed

so ive just been sitting hear watching my tank its so nice that everybody is finally getting along and things are doing so good again. Paprika and blossom are both out, ick has been going away, fins are healing up everybody is getting a long, evil chromis hasnt been nearly as bad to flash as he used to be. just nice that everything is going so smoothly

oh and i scrapped some coralline off of the front glass today, but didnt get all of it off but i got some

 

new video, it took 1 1/2 to upload

it has music on it, it's not the best video and my camera sucks but here ya go

 

Tank looks great!! Haha I saw evil chromis go after Flash! But it wasn't too bad. Looks like how Ahi treats Rex.
