I have a couple other threads dealing with issues I have had with this tank, from the leaks, the fans, and the hidden predator. I have no idea as to how to combine them, so I decided to just start this with some of the newest pictures and additions.
I went to a SW warehouse in Dayton, OH yesterday. I picked up some nice new corals, a couple of feather dusters, and tons of new wants (too bad my wallet is tapped out for a bit
) They had several types of clown fish that I had not seen before. Onyx, and another one that was gold something ? These are the first clowns that I have actually considered as I usually do not care for them. (Sorry guys...)
Oh and getting to see some of the fish I have thought about maybe adding up close and personal instead of just pictures, WOW!!! Of course, several of the ones I would love to have are not reef safe, darn it. I fell in love with the dragon wrasse!! I plan on doing more research into this fish to see if there is any way I can maybe give it a shot. There was also a blue fairy wrasse that looks awesome too, but I think I should wait on either of these until I get the 29g BC set up an running. They had lots of the little yellow clown goby's that I love. I am thinking about maybe adding one to my pico, or a neon goby or a tiny little t... goby (kind of pinkish/goldish in color, very very tiny guys). So, anyway, I'll quit rambling and post some pics of the new stuff, and how it looked before. Love to hear feedback.
note: no new fish or shrimp as I am unsure as to whether or not the predator is gone. Though I will probably bring the peppermint shrimp home from one of my picos at work to deal with the aptasia that I just noticed on one of my new coral frags when I was taking pictures.
Here are the pics (if I did it right with photobucket):
FTS before:
This is my FTS before having to remove the big showy piece in the center so that I could have space for my corals!
Rearranged the rock work, and added several new corals. I had to take my big showy piece out though (have it hanging out in a bucket of sw until I can get the 29g BC set up. Its size shouldn't be an issue in that one). It really limited what I could do with my corals.
Another FTS...
