I’m keeping a close eye on it, hopefully it does well. I’m thinking the white is just off patterning as the lfs has others with similar look, they recently came in. If this one does well I’m going to add a few more I really like the look

It let go of the substrate from old tank, that’s the rubble pile beside it. Foot Is 50%glass and 50%moving further into substrate. Has a clear line to light, and the flow is medium in this spot. T5ho on there for 4hours during full daylight on timer for now.

So I’m being told elsewhere(a reef onlyforum) the white spots are not dying tissue, so I’m pretty confused on what to believe. Regardless, it’s foot is now on the glass and making its way into the substrate. Hopefully by tonight it’s situated. Will still give it a bit of time to recover from a...

I’ll add the t5’s tomorrow night for now I’m going to just leave it in the little spot it has found. Thanks for the advice!

Shoot! I thought that was just a cool spot, that’s how it came in at the lfs. I can go ahead and throw the t5ho strip on there and start planning a rig for the leds +t5ho Anything I can do to maximize the chance of it surviving? Should I wait on mysis shrimp feeding for a week or so and let...

Found him here starting to open up. Still not very happy but a super cool mini, the random white spots are neat, couldn’t get very good blue light photos but it’s cool

Starting to open up, did a long acclimation process but figured it was worth going slow with this guy. Has a super cool random white spots pattern with dark red. Can’t wait I’ll it gets comfortable. Lighting dropped to acclimation levels for a bit until it gets used to the leds, it was under...

I do realize that, but low to medium lighting for a mini carpet, this light should do more than enough, and that’s at the bottom to middle of my tank. This would be the highest light requirement coral I’m doing, just more hammers and zoas from here on out. I just don’t want to clutter my tank...

As of right now the t5ho is collecting dust, if I don’t need it I don’t wana crowed the tank. Essentially it’s There is the lights I have won’t keep up with what I need, but if a carpet needs more light, I can put them on.

If I were to get one at the lfs how would I tell if it is healthy or not? Things to look for on the foot ect? Considering getting one I recently saw last week.

Kind of rounded though, limpets are more squished

Hammer. If you paid for a torch, they are usually pricey, I’d be asking for a few bucks back..

I’m pretty new to saltwater, but maybe a larger limpet snail? Possibly that because the shell seems “ruffled” at the edges, There’s more than one, and they are always on the glass, but idk if it goes under sand or not

Current tank shot, pretty all diatom algae is gone, my full cuc is in (waited on the nassarius snails so there would be food) And now it’s just adding corals. I currently have the hammer, gsp, some sort of chalice, and the zoas which if successfully fragged 2 polyps onto a new surface. This...

Going to dig through this tonight looks cool though, I have 2 maroon clowns I need to get out and rehome, was thinking the same combo you had honestly. Do the clowns get along just the same, I know they are the same type just different morphs, but clowns seem picky. Just got my clean up crew...
