Hello! How is everyone? I know I have not posted here for a Long time. That is only because I have been stocking very slowly. :) here's the latest update! be070f51966b465f5630eeb66b60ad68.210132a9af07e79fd9ba17fcb9a16bb8ddd977.677059

Here's a closer look at the latest additions, the acans and the radioactive birdnest colony!

So it's been about two months since I've had this tank and I think it's been wonderful. I am happy with the space a 2ft by 2ft tank affords, but I have yet to maximize it. Slowly though, I feel I am getting a better idea of what I want, and what are my limitations. With an IOS, it makes it hard to manage the bio load, but I managed to mitigate that a little bit by getting a canister filter, and of course, regular water changes. One other thing that I find helps but hard to do, is to add livestock slowly. But I try, and give myself a pat on the back for having done quite well so far.

It's still hard to manage finicky eaters and I have not have much success with the infamous fishes like a Flame Angel, the Coral Beauty, and the dragonet. None of them have survived since trying to introduce them to my tank but I will keep on trying when I have built up more knowledge and practice wisdom. For now, my current livestock consists of 1 Blue Tang, 2 True Perculas, 1 Yellow Wrasse, 1 Six Line Wrasse, 2 Red Fire Gobies, and my latest addition, much against conventional wisdom, a Red Seahorse. Corals wise I have 1 bubble coral, one pink Duncan with 4 heads, one small acans colony with 7 heads, one red colored brain, and one small colony of various zoanthids

Yes yes I know Seahorses need a specialized tank, and one that is matured with enough Copepods for it to nip. I got it after hearing a success story of my fellow Reefer who gave me some tips for helping it thrive. Basically, Rotifers are important for them. A long stemmed plant will also help them a lot. This seahorse has also been in Seasonal Aquarium for two months so it is pretty stable and acclimatized to an aquarium setting. It is also eating frozen mysis. These are the factors that helped me decide to try keeping one. 0d20420c79e72105a1dce4312518e91b.jpgPlus of course,they're cute!

Just upgraded my chiller from Hailea HS28a to a HS66a. From 1/10hp to 1/4 hp. Also installed a temperature probe that will turn off the chiller when the temperature has been reached. Hopefully this will save me some electricity bills.
