Only news to report is the loss of one of my clowns. It went missing....I looked all around the tank and all in it, even at night (in case it was hiding). It has not shown up so I am assuming it dead. I never saw a body, but I know the snails could have taken care of that overnight.
I still see my Goby periodically in his little dens. He rarely comes out in the open now, but I get excited when I see him under the rocks....so I know he's alive.
I'm gonna go to the lfs tomorrow and browse their corals. I may get a cleaner shrimp as well. Pics to come!
Still battling Dinos and hair algae. I got a phosphate reactor but I haven't installed it yet. I'm waiting on a powerhead I ordered, which should arrive today.

So they are closer to the light and will grow...and because they are on plugs and I don't want them getting knocked off the rock before they can grow.

i dont seee why you dont just glue or rubberband the plugs to the rocks...

thats what I was gonna ask, but I think she/he just don't like the look of the plugs, maybe?

I don't like the look of rubberbands around my plugs/rocks.
And I doubt superglue will hold them to the rocks good enough that I won't knock them off when I'm vigorously cleaning the hair algae off my rocks.
I do what I wish!
And I'm a she.

I don't like the rubberbands neither, but the glue that I use hold them pretty good in my LR.
I don't have plugs, I bought small piece that cut out from a big rock.
and I will find a LR that have a hole or place that fit my coral rock and glue in on.
anyway ^^ your tank still looks lovely

I need some better glue.
And the plugs I have I bought from others (didn't know they were on plugs...well except one). I don't really like them either. My other frags are on square things, which would be hard to glue I think.
When I frag, I'll put them on small pieces of base rock. Thats the plan atleast.

I haven't fragged anything yet...but I think you can use a razor blade...and then some tweezers would be helpful. You already have the glue. You'll want to wear gloves and maybe even eye goggles.
