The micro bubbles could be from the water dropping from the output of whatever it is on the back right of your tank.

A Scopas AND Regal Tang in a 46G........




Aquaria, your tank is looking good and healthy so far.. Can you fill the tank more? That would eliminate the microbubbles from the Skimmer probably. As for your question about the sponge, they are usually a good thing to see. Beneficial filtration.

found these two think one is a mushroom and one is a leather or cup ??



and ty jdigital so far so good i filled it more after the pics and it seems to have helped a bit, so ill try more

Well my new shrimp is going, he swimming weird and out on the open sitting on a hermit at one point so I'm thinking he wants to be a meal. and I got major algea issues so I think I may be over feeding perms were normal, although I have had a nitrate spike .5 and phosphat at 0.25 yesterday I'll so tests right now and post tommorow. And next shrimp will be done drip method lol.
