    The previous post is the new tank with the light resting on top since it's from the 20T it won't fit on the tank. The tank only had actinics on though...
    I did get the hardware for the ceiling to hang it so new pics to come today or tomorrow.

    New Addition & New Pics

    Yesterday I got a not so little frag of bright green mouthed Zoas with yellow skirts.

    I also took some better pics of the new tank.

    New FTS 6 Months old.

    My little , well not so little now, 29 gal. nano is 7 months old now but the pictures are from last month at 6 months old after the 4 day power outage.


    The rock where the anthelia was winning the battle for king of the rock is now covered in calurpa and the anthelia has stalks scattered throughout the tank you can see them in the foreground of the pictures near the rock.

    Current residents are 2 B&W Clowns (Emo & Nemo), a Blue Devil Damsel (Taz), a Ylw Tailed Black Blenny (Max), and a Peppermint Shrimp (Peppi), plus some anthelia, a 1.5" zoa colony, colt coral, kenya tree, 3 hairy shrooms and a few other shrooms, CUC including some stomatella snails.

    Cute fish! They survived the power outage just fine. That's great! I like the names of the clowns - Emo and Nemo lol

    Thanks, my daughter named them, this tank is in her room.

    Yup all the fish in all my tanks survived just fine.
    With the exception of the remaining seahorse which was not doing well before, I honestly think he would've died anyway.

    There's a Lawnmoer in My Tank!

    A Lawnmower Blenny that is ;D

    When I showed my daughter the picture of the 2 blennies I was debating about getting for my tank she liked the algae/lawnmower one and said it looked like the creature from Star Wars, I asked which one...Jar-Jar?, to which she said yes.
    So we named it Jar Jar Binks.

    Thanks.
    So far no issues with the other blenny who stays in his rock till no one is watching, dummy me I fotgot I had a blenny in the tank since he hides all day.
    Jar Jar has taken up residence in the other set of rocks and just pokes his head out to watch what's going on....he's cool & changes color too.
    I just hope he goes to town on the little patches of GHA....I wouldn't mind if he kept the calurpa trimmed too :cheesy: though it is needed as the tank has no sump/fuge and just a HOT cannister filter for the carbon.
