1" of aragamax select
150 pounds of fiji and tonga rock whick i got for 2 dollars a pound! full of life

coral beauty who hasnt touched any of my corals
percula clownfish
blue tang-my "special fish" he's a bit reatarded
ruby head fairy wrasse-don't see to much of him,likes to hide alot

Tank sounds like its going well. Great to see.

I'll probably see you when you come down but my schedule's really tight so let me know when/if you want to come over.

By the way, the hitchhiker anemone is probably a majano. Not a great "freebie" but not as bad as aiptasia.

I looked at all the majano pictures and I'm pretty sure it isnt one. I'll try to get a picture of it, bloody hard to get a close up, and then my tang thinks he's getting fed so he swims in front of the lens. I seem to get all the "special" animals. I have a golden retriever that thinks he a lap dog, a fjord that thinks it's a dog and a fish that eats like a horse. Oh well I love them all.

will try to get a pic to you anthony, so u can help identify :biggrin:
look forward to seeing you and your awesome seahorses

Its working pretty good. I had a 55 with no skimmer and no skimmer on my 135. I'm just starting a DIY euro skimmer, so we'll see how that goes
but never had a skimmer

If its working good that great. I'm sure that once you get one on there you'll see an increase in the quality of your water.
