The coco doesnt seem to get bothered by anything now. Latsnight I even poked it with a wooden spoon and it didnt retract! lol It only retracts by itself when it wants to I'm guessing. Everytime I see it retract nothing else is near it to bother it.
Must like my water!
heres a video of my cut elittle clowns today haha

Nah that pipe is near the back of the tank... there at the front corner. The pipe is the return for the refuge so the flows to heavy for them to host it i think!

they look so much bigger in the videos, there only like maybe half a inch if not shorter!
I got my credit card issue taken care of, someone made a copy of my card in India! lol, as for the supplies I thin kthe package went missing the postoffice told me to tell the buisness to call them
.
And my scarlet crab molted badly and I think its missing its claws, but I think tiny ones have came back already cuz I see soemthing moving around picking at things in the sand bed.
Also since I was to lazzy to change my lighting schedual like you advised me to I had a little algae bloom this morning before work but when I got home my tank was spotless! I think I finally have a sufficiant CUC. Currently the emerald is picking away at my sand bed!
And I'm in the middle of testing my water parameters!

That's very good then,,,and as long as it stays gone, your cuc should be sufficient

Yeah, plus I need some algae to grow so my GEC can eat or else it'll turn white or maybe even die!
Also I think I'm going to have to buy the peppermint shrimp, these apistia keep growing back every time I kill one the original grows back in a week plus 2.
