wow is that a rare tan mini anenome? you should feed it, it'll probably go away..

Can anyone ID this little bad boy? He's about 1 cm across and much more attractive than the Aptasias.

That's just a bleached Aiptasia. :)

Swimming anemone?
Boloceroides mcmurrichi

Yep! we all need a few of those guys Scott :lol:

Moving aptasia yay lol

Threw a Peppermint into the tank just before leaving on a 7 day vacation. Came home and no Aiptasia to be found!

So this tank has morphed into an observation tank for any new livestock destined for my 65. I say 'observation', because I mean to do no medical treating in this tank whatsoever. If it turns out I need to treat a fish, I will just set up a hospital tank for that very purpose.
Picked up a couple clowns a few weeks ago in preparation for the end of the 65's fallow period. They appear healthy, ich free, and have no problem eating Mysis and pellets. Have been soaking food in garlic just for that extra precaution.

Added some Rastas, cause you know, had them kicking around.

Also had an issue with a shrimp eating the hammer in the 65, so I moved it over here to hopefully heal. So far some new polyps have returned on the exposed skeleton.

Nitrate is reading at 5ppm, and PO4 at around 0.25.
Hoping to get some more equipment for this small set up soon. Possibly a bio-pellet reactor, nano skimmer, tunze ato, more liverock and more substrate. Probably wont happen until Christmas, lol.

look at that coraline algae growing out of control, and you were worried.

Moved the Clowns over to the 65. Did a minor overhaul on this tank tonight. Set up a CPR medium fuge (thank-you Ram3500, and DEAD_BY_DAWN at J&L for helping out with the pump selection).
Then I added some Indo Pacific Black livesand. Give it a couple days to settle... hope the peppermint makes it through the cloud!
Anyone have a good recommendation for a skimmer that will fit in a 3.75 x 5 footprint with a water depth of 9.75 inches?
