flooddc September 26, 2016 Author September 26, 2016 (edited) Hi all! Been busy outside pulling weeds !! Caught this little guy off the Florida's Clearwater back in June! Thought it was a puffer at first but look like some kind of cowfish. cute little guy, but we let it back into the ocean after some photo shots! Tanks update: not much changes in the last few months. Loss a few colonies and frags and very little growth, but over all not too bad. Maybe need new lighting/My 4+ years old LED maybe going south! Edited September 26, 2016 by flooddc
flooddc January 1, 2018 Author January 1, 2018 (edited) The past year had been crazy with personal life. I was not too active with reefing stuff but remained committed to reefing. Darn Photobucket! Can't see my photos any more. Anyway, I am back! Here is a video of my tank, was so busy that my whole basement project stalled and nothing was has move since last year. Hopefully can get something going soon. Meanwhile enjoy. Happy New Year! Edited January 1, 2018 by flooddc
YHSublime January 1, 2018 January 1, 2018 Looking good, Chuck. I just don't think you have enough anemones though.
flooddc January 2, 2018 Author January 2, 2018 (edited) Looking good, Chuck. I just don't think you have enough anemones though. Me too. I’ve been thinking about adding a few more of different variety of BTA. Edited January 2, 2018 by flooddc

flooddc January 2, 2018 Author January 2, 2018 Looks great, those lemon chromis(?) Or damsels are awesome looking Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk Yelllow damsels. One of them is a biter. attack my hand almost every time I aquascape or mounting frags her den.
flooddc March 1, 2018 Author March 1, 2018 Trap is set! It's the third day... Trap by t@#$%c, on Flickr trying to catch this guy/gal! Normally its only chase after the other chromis and it's not the most aggressive fish in there. It's afraid of the tomato clowns and yellow damsel and even the PJs. But for some reason he/she has recently attacking the sailfin tang. Trap by t@#$%c, on Flickr
flooddc March 31, 2018 Author March 31, 2018 After I loss the female 6-line wrasse. I've decided to find a replacement 6-line for the widower wrasse. However, I stumbled on an orchid dottyback @ petco and after a few weeks of observing it, I decided to give her a home. She has been hidding for over a week after released into the tank and finally come out to play. Couldn't get a good video of the true color, but it will do for now.
flooddc April 26, 2018 Author April 26, 2018 Orchid dottyback update. It's doing very well and come out a lot more in the open as the 6-line no longer bother it.
flooddc July 17, 2018 Author July 17, 2018 Thank you! Trying to add more colors such as green, purple monti and blue acros but for some reason they don't survive.
Cliff Puckstable July 27, 2018 July 27, 2018 Seeing this tank the other day makes me want to tear my crap down and start over.
flooddc July 27, 2018 Author July 27, 2018 Seeing this tank the other day makes me want to tear my crap down and start over. haha! "the grass is always greener on the other side of the fence" I wish I could get some of the coral to grow faster like yours. About 1/4 of mine coral in my tank grow very well, but the one that I like to grow a bit faster doesn't budge.
A.ocellaris July 30, 2018 July 30, 2018 Seeing this tank the other day makes me want to tear my crap down and start over. hahahah I had a similar thought when I came back to see my tank full of brown algae LOL
flooddc July 30, 2018 Author July 30, 2018 I loved watching two videos at once. Made me so jealous!!!! Glad you enjoy them. Thanks hahahah I had a similar thought when I came back to see my tank full of brown algae LOL your tank is new. You'll eventually get there. There will be much more variety of algae than just brown algae LOL
A.ocellaris July 30, 2018 July 30, 2018 The anemones do look different compared with the one I bought from you. The one in my tank is getting bigger every day and I pray that she stays put.
flooddc July 30, 2018 Author July 30, 2018 The anemones do look different compared with the one I bought from you. The one in my tank is getting bigger every day and I pray that she stays put. The one you see in the latest video in the center is a flame tip. The one you got from me is a rainbow, it's a clone of one of the other anemones in the back of the tank. Anemone will look different from tank to tank as well as different lighting. growing and healthy is a good sign. Hopefully it doesn't move. I loss a few to powerheads when they released from the rock trying to move.
flooddc August 21, 2018 Author August 21, 2018 Got a new resident for the tank. I was very worry of the yellow tang when I introduced the new smaller purple tang last night. I know the yellow tang will be super aggressive toward the new tang. As suspected, it went nut but not attacking. I shut off all the lights to let the new fish adjust to its new home. Today, the tank is a bit calmer and the yellow tang also much less aggressive toward the new resident. Surprisingly, the one fish that I never thought would have any aggression is the hippo tang. It's has always been a good tank mate. Today, it's attacked the new fish during feeding and occasionally chase the new fish. The most noticeable fish is the yellow damsel. Constantly, harassing the new fish. Might have to sump it if it continue to harass the tang!
YHSublime August 22, 2018 August 22, 2018 I've only done a 150 with a purple tang and a yellow. They eventually cohabitated. I think it's a crapshoot. Tanks looking great though!
