Hey everybody,
I really enjoy not having to do larger water changes...I could only imagine! Anyway, my tank is doing well and I figured it was time for an update.
Let's see...the lawnmower blenny is no longer. He introduced a bit of ich that he succumbed to and gave a little to the royal gramma. Ricky, the royal gramma, is doing pretty well and I think he'll overcome the parasites...mostly anyway. That's what I get for purchasing living animals from a large chain store
.
My gsp is growing well and I went ahead and picked up some yellow polyps. My anemone is doing really good and is starting to get the frosty coloring that they get.
I picked up a pair of anemone crabs(aka porcelain crabs). They are filtering away and one has molted successfully. I've witnessed one of them chowing down on hair algae which made me smile. One has claimed the bubble tip and the other rides on the gsp. I have not seen any negative interactions between the pom pom crab(s) that I have either.
Does anyone know what this zoanthid might be? I'll post some better pictures in the zoanthid forum one of these days but I really like this one. It's got a neon green outer ring with the neon orange and a center of purple or something like that. I used the shot glass in my tank to get it to attach to the rock pictured(thanks Jaymz for the tip).
Hey Jaymz, those clove polyps have grown to 5 heads now! I'm really starting to like them and thanks again for giving those to us. I've got another polyp of the above zoanthid I'll put back for you when we make it up sometime.
Well, that's it for now. I'll be sure to update sometime in the future with pics of course.

Hey man looks really good. Those zoanthids you have look like either 'whammin watermelons' or 'eagle eyes' which are pretty much identical.. did i give u those zoas.. i have a ton of them, dont remember.
Give it a bit more time for your tank to mature and those clove polyps will take off and give you a huge fluffy colony in no time.. same with the zoas.
I am going to be fragging my large devils hand soon and selling some. I can hold a frag for u if u want, let me know.
