You feel lucky?
Bax want to make me an ATO container? lol
I use a RubberMaid gift wrap holder works great and a lot cheaper than acrylic!!!!!
Well... there's quite a bit, at the moment, but not for long! I have many plans for it. For one, I'am building racks to elevate the aqua scape. The DT will be BB with PHs sweeping the under side of glass and acrylic, that, along with the ocasional power sweep should virtually eliminate detritus. I have quite a few other plans as well.
Thanks Darren! And it just keeps on giving! There was a lot to work with there.
That is too little, I'd add more stuff! Sorry for the Hijack Bax
Sad news!
My heniocus butterfly died today. He did not respond to feeding like normal yesterday. He's usually the most boisterous fish in the tank when it comes to food. The leader of the mob. I looked around yesterday and he was just hanging out in back of the rocks which was odd. I also noticed some of my zoas were gone. I'm thinking the nuclear greens he ate nuked him!
Is that a possibility?
All other fish look just fine.

... And the problem is, besides the obvious that I've lost my favorite fish, the heni is wedged under the rocks below my coral rack. Removing him will require a tear down.
So, the question is do I let the brittle stars deal with him and ramp up skimming and WCs, or do I remove the corals and rack and break down the rock???
All of which will spark SPS & LR die off???

I stopped by AO and picked up my salt order. Will had some great looking fish there, I really need to get my QT up so I can score some fish!
Speaking of fish, I was able to raise the coral rack, remove a couple of rocks and get a hold of the heniocus. So the carcas is out. Tomorrow I'll do some water change. I'm just too wiped frome work this week to do it today.
RIP Heniochus. I've had two. One for nearly three years and this one for over three. The first was 100% reef safe. This second developed a taste for zoas that I believe killed it. As much as they were center piece fish, and always one of my favorites, I don't know if I'll chance another as I've had great luck so far with this risky species. To have three good ones may be asking too much?

Since it was such a nice day I took the stand outside and painted the stand today. Now I can recrute one of my nephews to help me haul it around from the garage and get it up on the stand. Then I can water test the GH overflow, plum to the sump and water test that and the fun will begin!
I can give you a hand Bax. I go right past your place every night on my home from work. LMK
