75g reef build in progress

I haven't got them yet but am waiting for them. There is some light purple spots developing on my rocks though. Do you think they will give me a break? I doubt it.

Also, i hear the chromis do well in odd pairs. not even. Dont know why, and frankly dont care either, but i stick to the facts. odd pairs make better.

You are correct my friend :

Diatoms you mean? Mine have come and gone so Im happy. You will see though Keith, they come overnight and its like they take over the **** tank. Mine only stuck around for about a week and I kept vacuuming the substrate and such.

I'll probably just do 3 chromis.

Good thinking

Yep, I just like to dream. As long as it doesn't affect the fish.

my water got super clear when the diatoms showed up.

bought the 3 chromis and acclimated via drip during my extended lunch break. I can't check on them till I get home in 2.5 hours. /sigh

 

[InfernoST]

Don't forget the pics.

Awesome, you'll like them I think, they are quirky little guys

 

[Speakerman]

Sweet, I just noticed I've got nitrogen bubbling out of the sand, I guess that's as positive an ID on a finished cycle as I can get.

 

[Speakerman]

Here are the best pics I could get of the chromis, they sure like to move around a lot.

 

[Sharkbait430]

I know, its tough to take a picture of them because they are constantly moving. Have fun with them and good luck!

They will bring out the life from your tank they are awesome. I didn't have a care about them at first but then picked up 3 2 weeks ago. They are awesome. Nice pick ups...

 

[Speakerman]

They have calmed down a lot since I got them, they seem pretty happy now, and are all eating well.

[InfernoST]

They are very interesting fish, I'm still on the fence about getting any though.
