Tank is coming on a year old, though it might be interesting to see how it has progressed over the last year.

do you still have that pretty fish that is in the sec pic?

Not sure which fish you are referring to, I don't see a fish in the second pic, but the only fish in that tank right now is a red lipped blenny. Everything else either took great pleasure in sampling the corals, or it was my maroon, and that got toasted by a M. digitata when it tried to host in it.

I am still envious of all that coraline!!!

That first photo is a yellow tail damsel. Although the photo makes it look like the tail is orange.

Although the photo makes it look like the tail is orange.

Actually it was orange, the photo was very true to the color of the fish. It was an Indian Ocean Blue Devil (Damsel), and it lived up to it's name. It was way to b****y for a 20g tank, so it was removed and replaced with the GS maroon.

Coraline Algae, it is good algae and is very disirable.

oh cool!! So it is ok for some stuff to grow on the tank huh??

 

[d9hp]

Yes, most people let it grow on the back of the tank, some let it grow on the sides. It really is good stuff.
