I think the ammonia reading was 2.0 not 4.0 still High though. No losses thank goodness.

The pieces i put in there are mostly frags so not to many. I will wait a couple of weeks before adding anything else.

Man, look at the extension on those candy cane heads. Looks amazing. I had a branching blue colony that I loved, but never did that. With so much green in my system now, I'd throw a red/green in there for that reaction in a heartbeat.

That is the first time ive seen the candy cane extend like that. The acans are extending also bit theirs are shorter. They have been extending every evening.

I dont know What i am going to do with this one. This candy cane has a mushroom on one side and clove polyps on the other side.

 

[Sniperhank]

Yeah it doesn't look to happy about it either. Mushroom is pushing it back, surprisingly.

Take it out and cut the mushroom off. It doesn't seem like the polyps are really bugging it though.

Nice! Too funny when the fish swim into the frame as if to say "Hi" and get their 15 seconds of fame!
