PB's 30gal fish/crusty's

Now that I got a new phone with a decent camera I figured why not post some pics.

My tank is going into it's 15th week and is fish and mainly crustaceans.
The tank and coral decorations are about 33 years old (hasn't been running that long) and the tank shows it's age, so please excuse the scratches.

here are some pics

my DIY in-tank refugium (CPR want $70 for one the same size, this cost me $15)

plus there are four hermits, four nassareus snails, many bristle worms and little brown brittle stars and a red fiddler crab that I've only seen twice in the last month. He likes to hide. LOL

Yeah, I wasn't too keen on the cardinals at first, the wife picked them.
But they have grown on me as they are one the type of fish with definite "personality", especially the Bangii
