Hey guys!!

Long term lurker, and seller of goods😂

Not a fan of the past, so I’ll just pick up where I am!!

Just moved and re-setup my 180 gal 6’ x 2’ x 2’ tank.

I am using triggerplatinum (the big one), Aqua duo skimmer from max spect, gyre 350, Nero 5, 2 radion xr30 blue, 2 cor 15 returns.

I dose the full line of KZ products daily (when I remember!) I only test salinity, and temperature. I do a water change sometimes😂

Fun story about the move is I didn’t have the correct fitting so I ended up plumbing in a barbed fitting for one return. So I just turn it on the lowest setting and it pumps water in the back. Figure it will keep it detritus free? 😂 I now like just having one.

On to the coral!!!!

1 - neon highlighter green hadonni ( corals.com) 20” easy. Mean Green

1 - blue rainbow carpet. - Dude off reef2reef. Little Boy Blue🥰

11 - nexus Burst anemone - mostly Butuz

5 - Jawbreaker (the not poletti but other one😂) from local reefer -tjohnson5

WWC:
1 - Darth Varder nem. I call it darth boobie 😂

1 - contraband grafted dignitary (brown poop in my tank so far. Murdered twice🥷

1 - RANDI freebie scan that is starting to look cool. Super orange.

1 - fairy tales branching torch - now has like 6 head

1 - dragon soul torch. Squished the head flat when I first got it on the glass!! Still think it’s recovering 9 months later. Finally has second head showing.

1- Willi Wonka branching hammer

1 - splatter branching hammer

1 - freebie of a cool coral that is growing on me😂 was ugly at first.

1 - Scolly - highlighter yellow / red. Currently under Spirobid attack.

1 - Tropical paradise symphilia

1 - Little Shop Horrors zoas

1 - Charmander Zoa

1 - free random green sps that encrusted on a rock and now is stuck in a bit of a crevice! Interested to see how it grows. Can you spot it!?

Cornbread

1 - CB Rainbow crush

1 - WWC jelly bean

1 - CB trippies rainbow acan

1 - CB rainbow inceinerator bounce

1 - Polleti Jawbreaker

1 - CB rainbow Jawbreaker

1 - CB Angel eye micro musa - melted edges twice

1 - Wildfire bounce

1 - Raging Rhino pectina - super excited to see this grow - crushed once, bleached once

1 - WWC OG rainbow - murdered once, do doo brown twice😂 just turned a dull orange!!

1 - ECR ultra chalice - crushed yesterday

1 - WWC OG bounce - on worst frag plug ever!

4 - bleached rock flower nems from fish gallery

4/5 - Gonzo Bounce. It is a prolific little bugger! Wish it would grow more and bounce. Just started noticing a couple.

Cali Kid

1 - Delerium Diaseris - killed immediately😂 currently has 5 growing out.

1 - freebie acan, My 🤩 asked about name and he said it’s unnamed and he is culturing it. So basically I’m a rockstar 😆

Swear I ordered more but can’t remember.

RIP - May all my wasted money return to me🪦

1 - can toxic grafted monti

1 - cool chalice from eBay

2 - Nexus Burst Anemones

1 - CB radio active bounce ( I blame the crappy rag tag piece of a frag)

My hope is for 50 to 60.

1/2 mocha storm
1/2 black storm

Will need at least 25 plus BTA…

Ultimate hope is to also sell things from the tank to cover the cost😳

Dang, that Scoly is so bright, I'd be worried about it burning the camera sensor! lol Love that blue carpet nem.

It looks like you're going mostly for high-end BTAs, but if you decide you want a bunch of cheap rainbows for $10 each, hit me up.

I love it too!! I’m battling a Spirobid on the bottom of the scolly.

I for certain am only putting things I’m in love with in. A few things made it through that are luke warm.

I turned it over the other day and superglued the opening. No idea on how long to wait. Going to give it 60-90 days and try to scrape it off…. Again 2E5394F1-4E08-4720-9CA4-DB904F6F65C1.jpeg 8FB7B950-74E7-44EE-B6B5-DC900BC6ADAD.jpeg

I woke up to a cloudy fish tank!!!

No coral seems phased so far.

Put on my carbon reactor, and I’m going to change out a good portion of water in a bit. 2CCDB6CF-E6DB-44C2-8134-3EEC21CAA9B9.jpeg

No clue on issue. I don’t even know how it would be new tank. Literally the only thing new is the glass in the system. The sump didn’t even get cleaned. It just got drained and moved in the cabinet.

I’m thinking maybe my rfa were feeling frisky on the full moon!!

This little dude looks like he belongs in bowsers castle after big meal! So puffed up.

Can’t believe he caught / ate soo much.

Any ideas on how / when the various diaseris plates will “break” themselves off?

Was an original frag that died. Now has 5-7 babies, one you can see is the og…. I’ve been expecting them to start popping off. Or do I!?!?😳 5A53E06A-3545-4A95-ADB8-4905879D9735.jpeg

Can anyone ID this!?

I’m guessing its what those cute little jellyfish turn into when you no longer have peppermint shrimps😳 DCFC21CE-98E3-4B22-87A1-395BB827B599.jpeg

This morning I can only find 1 out of 3!!! It’s seems my peppermint shrimp do live!! Lol

That’s my assumption.

Looks like my worst fears where unfounded!! Someone is getting a backrub!!

I figured this would spell disaster…. But here we are

This is a pic of my sea hare on the sand bed with my carpet anemone sitting on top of it😂😍🥰 IMG_0852.jpeg IMG_0851.jpeg
