  1. Macro shots from tonight

    I recently made some Top Down Photo Boxes, so I had one handy to take a few pictures. I'll be far happier to share pictures from the new clean tank set up, compared to these holding vats. I've got no space, there are various issues that ruin the shots, and sadly I've lost some corals due to fluctuations in water quality during all of my travels over the past 3.5 months since the 280g was broken down.

  4. New Additions

    So over the last two weeks I've added some new critters. I joined PMAS and found that the local forums are a good place to buy livestock on the cheap.

    Monti caps (Green, purple, orange) - 10$ each
    Frogspawn (2 heads) - 10$
    Hammer (3 heads) - 10$

    2-3" GBTA - 10$

    I got the monti caps last week to kind of "test" the water, they are starting to encrust on the rocks a little and havnt browned out, which is a good sign that my nutrients ...
