30 gal cube frag tank

[Roskoreef]

Oh yeah frags... Funny you mention it, put in some racks tonight and some tester frags, some rainbow montipora frags and a few acros that have been doing well. we will see if it is ready..

[Roskoreef]

so i think i will fill the bottom of the frag/seahorse tank with gorgonians, some of the frags (montipora and birdsnest) were doing well, but any acro wouldnt open up.. probably because this clown goby kept nipping at the polyps like it was a game of whack a mole..





jerk goby,



Well I think will wait on adding my other sps frags to this tank. here they are waiting the 180..

I see you have a new banded pipe , is the red/yellow still doing good ?
I guess the black and white banded pipes get bacterial infections fairly easy compared to the rest , just a heads up if you are not qt'ing the pipes. How are your blue stripes doing > Are they eating frozen ?
Also after a while my clown gobie started attacking my pipefish so keep an eye on that to

Yeah i guess seahorses and pipefish can get infections quite easily, i should probably take the hammer out, apparently if the start to hitch onto any stinging corals they can get injured.. all the pipefish are doing great, now 1 multi coloured banded, 1 b & w banded,3 blue stripe and 1 dragon head. They all eat tiny pieces of mysis and cyclopeeze and pods of course. The gobys might have to go to a different tank if they become jerks, i will watch them, thanks.

oh you have 3 blue strip pipes? If you have 2 males they will end up fighting , 2 females and 1 male is suppose to be ok .
What color marking does the dragonface have on its belly ? I have been looking for a male for my female for a while now . If the mark on the belly is yellow its a female , if its blue it will have a tiny little pouch and will be male.
Good luck with the pipes and the seahorse coolest fish in the hobby Imo

Hard to tell with the blue stripes, they are quite young i think, maybe 3" tops... they seems to get along for now, swimming together and such. I havent seen any agression in this tank thus far. As for the dragon face it is a female for sure, bright yellow markings underneath, took me 15 minutes to see the underside of him.
