I also picked up some nice pieces of dry rock today which will be for a new cube I got for a smoking deal, thanks intarsiabox

The new cube is 24" x 24" x 20" and isn't drilled so I was thinking I might try turning it into an AIO. If anyone has any suggestions on how to set up the AIO compartments please feel free to advise

He's good, eating frozen mysis & silversides. The new tank is intended for him.

So the death has seemed to finally stop but not until it took some nice (and not cheap) frags. I added another urchin because the spiny rock urchin isn't doing much of anything. The new one is a blue tuxedo and I can see some areas he's munched on so hopefully he does a better job.

I have some new zoa's & paly's coming. Can't wait to see them and I they all arrive okay.

Purple Heart Zoa
Devil's Armor Paly
Emerald's On Fire Zoa
Silver Rose Zoa
Magian Paly

I hope they do a good job. My spiny one isn't a long spine though.

So I received everything today but there was a mishap. I've never had corals shipped to my home before so I guess Fedex doesn't do overnight to my place. The package was handed off to a third party(canada post) and took 2 days to come. I was pretty anxious & nervous about what I'd find once they arrived. To my relief they're all okay. The only death was a freebie sps and there's possibly one other sps death. Pics to come soon.

I'm so upset. I just went to feed the fishy's and wouldn't you know it, the other clown committed suicide He was there before I left this morning so it happened while I was out shopping. No more clowns until the new tank is finished!
