Hopefully that is rainbow and poker star lol. They're practically identical until they get new growth. Nice pickups though  . Rainbow is gorgeous, here's mine for a teaser

So how often should I top off my tank to make sure the salinity doesn't go crazy off the charts?

One of the best things for a tank, and I believe this is especially true for nano tanks, is an ATO. Automatic top off system. There are many out there to look into and even several DIY setups if that is your thing. This makes sure your salinity will always be on point and even gives you the ability to do water changes through it too.

Hmm I'll have to look into one of those! Thanks Hank! Do they take up a lot of room. Space is kind of a problem at the moment

So I've noticed the cyano in the front of the tank slowly spreading, this flow isn't strong enough and it's time to fix it. So currently the korelia 240 is in the back top right corner facing the front the tank. Should I place another 240 on the left side facing right to blow along the front of the tank?

I have mine on the right side middle top 1/3rd of tank pointing towards the front/left corner. And the stock pump return pointed towards the middle front topish area and haven't had too much of an issue with cyano in a while. Sorry the lights are low but you can see the placement and angle. I guess different rock work would be different too, I still have a few patches of GHA I'm battling :/

He's probably about an inch big! I love how the purple and yellow blend together in the middle. Great color! The firefish is awesome too! Just got to order some netting off of brs so I can avoid carpet surfing 😳

I added two peppermint shrimps to my tank on Tuesday to help with a little aiptaisa... and something unexplainable happened. Both of the just fell off of the rock they were on...and tooled to be having a seizure or something. The are both currently sideways on the substrate and I'm really confused. They were acclimated correctly, but I haven't had a chance to check the water. Any ideas on what on earth could have happened?
