Jake's seahorse reef

[Jakegr]

Took some PAR readings from the Kessil A350 (non-wide) this afternoon. The light is suspended 3" above water.



Pretty impressive in my opinion! They were far higher than I expected. I'd like to suspend the light further above the water, but the Kessil mounting arm is a bit too short for a 24" wide tank.

Added some livestock!

Clean up crew- 5 spiny astreas, 5 regular astreas, 5 ring cowries, 1 sand sifting seastar, and 5 nassarious snails.

Corals - contents of my Q-tank, and a frag of GSP and fox coral. JL has a couple of great fox corals right now, 5-6" for $50. A couple had quite a bit of green on them too.

Been a while, lots to update. I have added both of the organisms the tank was originally designed for... Halophila seagrass and seahorses. The seagrass has been in the tank for over a month and is growing well. The seahorses have been in for a bit over a week. Both are eating. I'm happy I was patient and found true tank bred seahorses.













New seagrass buds around the originally planted leaves.
