Nice Inverts though, here's to hoping mines looks that good someday, minus mr. mantis

 

[reef diver]

Lol, Davos prob smarter than any othher fish youll ever have, (seriously, no joke, he knows my habits now, and is always at the right spot to hit me when I put my hand in the tank)

 

[reef diver]

GL on the 55, Those zoos just above his lair hes been tormenting, Im gonna have to frag them off an move-em

Does the mantis leave the coral alone?

 

[reef diver]

Yeah, but just inadvertently, during his remodling hes been dumping rocks, old shells, etc onto them, I was hoping to make a nice zoo " garden" around his home. Well In any case, Im gonna frag them onto my surface skimmer, so Ill have a very nice background.

i love the mantis tank and the mantis....what type of lighting do u have on it and what do you feed him ?

 

[reef diver]

Just 24 watt pc, Im upgrading to 48 watt over teh winter holidays and and adding a frag tank, from there Im gonna get a nanocustoms MH or 96 watt pc Retro. For the 55 I need to get rid
