lol... I wouldnt say pristine... I do drop a few pieces of food down for the nassas and an algae sheet twice a week for the others... :) the sheet is gone overnight

oh.. and before anyone asks.. yes my water pressure is within optimal range...actually, it is almost exactly at the perfect range... the unit says between 40 and 80 ... and mine is at 64.7... they state the "optimal" is 65....

.. ah.. well I have 12 cerith snails, 15 nassa snails, 1 blueleg hermit, 1 emerald crab, and 2 scarlet reef hermits.... (in addition to the two snails I picked up the other day)... do you think I need even more than that???

UGH... after spending 70 bucks.... and an hour trying to hook it up.. I turn the water on and within 2 minutes it starts leaking from 4 different places on the unit... Im very very frustrated, and Im thinking about sending it back for a refund and just buying RO water from the little water...

this was the only one they have or I would have bought more. :( ... also got a margarita snail (probably spelled that wrong)

lol... trochus were what I wanted... LOL they told me they didn't have them and didnt know what they were.

nope... that's not it... :) I think its a type of astrea... It is obviously an algae eater... done nothing but munch on the algae on the glass... its pretty good at it too

oh and I cant get a clear picture right now... I'll try again later.

bought the most awesome snail today... she called it a Buschi snail... I can't find it anywhere on the internet, so I wonder if they had it spelled incorrectly or named incorrectly... it is SO pretty .. the bottom of it's "foot?" is white, but the top and the head are dark purple/black.. it has...

I'd like to hear this too... I'll probably try to add some to my middle chamber in my nanocube. :) I have rubble in there now... thought about adding some macroalgae in there, but dont know what to do about a light.

I hope you are filling it with fresh RO water.. not saltwater... evaporation leaves the salt behind.. adding salt water will raise the salinity.

my nano cube does that>>>i just top off for evaporation there

yeah... Im glad I havent killed anything else yet... it was REALLY bumming me out... my husband has been getting REALLY mad at me whenever I use the garlic though... one drop is SOOOOO strong.. he hates that smell...I wouldnt be shocked if he found the garlic xtreme and tossed it.

heck yeah. :) the lfs tried to talk me out of getting one... didnt want to sell one to me for a nano, so I ordered him... :) glad I did. He's so awesome! I love all my inverts though... had no idea that they would turn out to be so entertaining

wow... I havent seen a nudibranch in there though.. but that does look like that

I probably should have just stuck mine in the display then.. :( I was trying to be safe... you know.. "better safe than sorry"... well... now I'm just sorry.

In the QT tank, I now have about 8-10 pounds of live rock ... along with a sponge and filter floss .... when the goby died (and the blenny)... I had a sponge and filter floss... (I did several 50% water changes for 4 days in a row before I added the live rock.. I wanted to make sure that the...

I'd suspect the emerald crab first... saw him munching them.. and he is a DELUXE eater. :)

yeah I saw my first bristleworm last night... it was kindof pretty, but my mind instantly went to all the horror stories I've read about people trying to rid their tanks of them

yep... guess that's good, since my 5 year old is set on his name being nemo... LOL. man that movie really got rid of any prospect of original names for clownfish huh? .... although Im still trying to convince her to name the pair of skunk cleaner shrimp Fred and George Weasley lol

I had two.. they died.. this is the third.. got him by himself. :)

must be the cerith.. cause I've seen my nassas lay eggs on the side of the tank.. they look NOTHING like that... lol

there's more again this morning... I checked Xtalreef and I can't identify it based on that.. unless it is the spaghetti worm thing....
