Levi, the Emeralds aren't bothering any of my Zoas so far. *fingers crossed* If they do, I can just move them to the 90.

Steve, time is the issue. I have been working out of province since February, and I am only home for about 30 hours every couple weeks (6 hour drive each way), and am usually pretty burned out when I get home. I just added the Phosban reactor and crabs a couple weeks ago, and I can see a difference already so I'm hoping it will take care of itself. So far, in that tank there is 1 Astraea snail, 2 Emerald crabs, and some Stomatellas. I plan to rip the tank apart at some point anyway since I don't like the rocks that are in there...but when? I have no idea!

Current fish are True Perc and Blue Assessor.

Ok, here's some pics...

Oct 2:




Same as above today...I guess they aren't RPEs!




Look at the closed polyps...what do you see? Grrr! I just rinsed them under the tap and put them back. Tough ole Zoas.




Blue Steels and Darth Mauls:




Purple Death and Tubb's Blues:




Blow Pops:



???




The uhm...greenery...




FTS from today...not impressive! I need to put different rock in there, and clean it up. I'm looking for some Tonga branch for it.

Unhappy

RIP Coral the True Perc. A victim of carpet surfing. She lived in various tanks of mine for over 3 years. She was my oldest fish, and made the trip to SK from BC with me. She can be seen above in the last picture I posted.

Thanks Doug and Lance...I'm still upset about it. People wonder why I tend to have lots of corals and few fish. It really bothers me to lose a fish.

yeah its hard to tell because mine are very small polyps but they are nice color red on the ouside but they have a green almost " halo " in the middle then a very green slit unfortunately ive never seen any large colonies in person just some small frags but all the pics i see online indicate that mine are different slightly, and after seeing your photo it looks just like yours i assumed they were red people eaters because they were red and had the slit but who knows lol they are still very beautiful

I totally understand.
When I lose a coral it makes me mad: losing a fish is different. I lost a fish last month, (first one in nearly two years) and it's still bothering me.

I wonder... does anyone care enough to read signatures if you make them really small? I would not. I would probably moan and complain, read three words and swear once or twice. But since you made it this far, please rate my builds.
