Clam and clown the clown loves the clam now that the blennie is gone.

I guess its the blue color
The clam doesnt seem to mind too much doesnt even close when the clown touches it, just kinda moves its mantle a little out of the way. (the clam still reacts to shadow and stuff so it ok)

Yea I did see it or one like it. I believe it was a large dersa clam. I dont think it can do that on mine, and I hope my clown wont try to do that my clam is too small.

Wow, that rock work is amazing
. Is that one big shelf rock that the clam is on??
Yup its a large piece of lace rock. I put some epoxy on the top of the base rocks then put the shelf on, its attached to at least two pieces of base.

I never knew an RODI unit would be this much of a pain. Ofcoarse I had to run plumbing over to where I wanted it. I couldnt just use a saddle valve oh no not me
. Well after a few dumb a$$es at HD and their major competitor got done scr--ing around. I finally got all the parts I needed to plumb it, only 6 trips over the last few days. Its hooked up and flushing now. 2 hours and ill have my own rodi water no more trips to the store for water and if something happens Ill be ready. Only problem is the company I got this from forgot to include the float valve for the auto shut off, they are sending it in a couple of days. Just have to build a stand for all the stored water now. Pics later

That looks like a pretty sweet rodi. So you're going to have it fully automated, eh? That will be awesome.
Just wondering... is your rodi on the same floor as the tank? My rodi is in my basement, so I have lines running directly to my two tanks upstairs. I would like to do an auto topoff, but I figure it would be a bit harder to pump upstairs...
