luisse25's 90 gal tank

[DBM Reef]

I dont know if I could go chopping if my tank looked like that either. I am putting a frag tank on the back end of my system to
put pieces of things as I get them and hopefully will be able to just frag out of there and keep my hands out of the display.
The only "underwater fragging" Ive done was a chalice and the skeleton was broken already so all I had to do is cut the flesh
part with a blade so it was an easy one.

 

[luisse25]

that is a great idea.... the only pieces i can frag are the z and p's i have in the sandbed..the ones in the rockwork would be impossible...if i have to pull it out i will have to get all other corals that are mounted and thats a lot of work....they are even growing underneath the rock also...its hard because i had one small colony of palys that got stress and slowly declined but i couldn't do much because i cant get it out to dip...i just ended up scraping them underwater and got rid of the polyps before it infect others....i know it can be saved but i have no way of getting the rock out..kinda frustrating but on the bright side theres a few polyps left that are doing ok now that i can grow...

What are the zoathids in the fourth picture with the insaine orange skirt. They are going on the top of my wish list for sure.

This is such a nice reef. It looks like every piece of real estate is used

 

[luisse25]

thought i bump this...
got a very small blue haddoni carpet its about 3 inches small and has a cute hitchhiker anemone crab...although the carpet looks more purple than blue...but under just t5 blues its blue




also got a small red haddoni carpet about 5-6 inches small...super nice i have it in a container for now and all i can find that fits it and not taking much room in my tank is a cool whip container hahaha,,,i am trying to find a good spot for it and moving everything around i could show a better picture on its spot but i just cant wait to show it
thats a magnet cleaner for comparison how small the carpet is....this red carpet is the brightest i have owned.

another hammer i added in my tank....i got depressed i lost my favorite orange wall hammer....it just started sliming and bailing off flesh,it slowly slimed and melted....also lost my all green hammer and its a bummer....now i am very cautious and i think i am not gonna get any wall hammer anymore...and because of that i added this branching hammer just to cheer myself of the losses ^_^

 

[nata]
