where did you get all those branch rocks? It looks amazing.

Ordered online it is branching real reef rock.

Water tested safe and diatoms and little green algae growing. First CUC inhabitants acclimated. Clown pair moved from QT to new tank. Resisting the urge to clean all the glass so that the CUC starts to earn their keep .

Heisenberg Aquatics- best copopods and phyto! Just got a giant bucket of pods to seed the new 187! Amazing how many pods are now going to live in the tank! Highly recommend! Don’t know if it will show up on in the photos, but there are thousands of little happy critters!

Upstairs display tank cord management under control. Just need to add Ecotech battery backups and APEX sensors. The basement is still a work in progress....

Really enjoying watching our fish explore the new tank. Slowly moving them up out of the temporary holding tanks. Backside view from dining room.

Refugium is running. slowly adding macro algae as we increase our bioload in the main tank.

Thank you. Can’t wait to rehome our coral from the basement trough and from fellow reefers keeping stuff for us back to our display tank.

Started moving some surviving corals into the new tank. So far they seem to be much happier in their new home . Starting with softies, except for the pavona which has been stuck attached between these two for the last 7 months. Hoping it will color back up now that it has room to stretch and breath .

Been dealing with a large bacterial and algae bloom- new tank uglies. UV is doing its job and can finally see some of our fish and softies. Fish and coral were fine, it’s just us that were bothered by the cloudiness . Hopefully, it will clear in a couple more days. Excuse the netting, top should be here shortly.

More improvement seems

Moving coral out of our emergency trough, and found this little fellow attached between an old frag plug and piece of live rock. What is it?

Not sure what I’m looking at, but these are common refugees -

That is a hairy mushroom. They’re fast growers/spreaders. Next to impossible to kill.
