I got a tiger instead. He dug a hole like he's supposed to and eats mysis.

Yeah I'm too cheap to buy one, just want to check it out

Thanks I'm going to head over there today. Mostly because I saw they had Cherry/Sakura Anthias on this week's list and want to see one in person. I got my other small pearly from there, will probably browse around till I find one that I feel really confident about.

Yeah bad for wrasses should be a consideration since you have some nice ones.

I had these and I had to throw away the rock after pulling it out of the tank and scrubbing with a hard bristle brush didn't work to kill them AT ALL. There may have been another way but @Kensington Reefer scared me into just getting rid of it. Only a few zoas on that rock anyways. Edit...

Drill 2 holes and use 2 nuts. Twice as secure :)

I want to add a jawfish to my tank because I could use another bottom dweller and I think they are cool. I have a 2" - 2.5" larger grain sand bed which I think should be sufficient although my rockwork base is on the bottom glass with sand around it. I don't want a blue spot because I don't...

To my sensibilities, these are clean installs. I don't like hanging unless you do it from the ceiling. I routed wires inside the 80/20 where I could then used short pieces of rubber "cover" to hold in place.

It's screwed from the bottom into the nut inside the 80/20 then the bracket attached to the light. Worst case you could make a bracket from a piece of aluminum trim with 3 drill holes and space it off the light with rubber grommets. If you paint it black it would look fine.

I used speed nuts captured inside the slot, you can buy them at ace for like a nickel. Then screw the bracket to them, then attach the bracket to the light. This was for a360x but should work for xr30 "slide mount" I think

Yes I absolutely agree some leathers like more light than others. But what about koji wada? Also I'm a little asking if you can get clues from what the coral is asking for based on how the polyp extension looks. Sometimes it looks ideal, sometimes sparse, sometimes "fluffy" or "cottony" if you...

I have a piece of this I got from outside this chain but it grows so slow and looks "fluffy" not "polyp-y" (hopefully leather keepers know what I mean). What's the deal? Needs more intense light?

Coming along, still not ready to frag but the colony is about the size of a racquetball

Crushed coral bottom has some advantages but a big disadvantage that corals will spread across it. I run it in my office softie tank and zoas/palys are slowly overtaking the entire substrate. If that doesn't bother you, you're golden.

I have frags of this finger leather for adoption. It's like a blue/green with tan polyps and grows like a champ. Likes high/medium light and medium/low flow. It's shading my stuff. Can cut big 4-6" pieces, the colony is >12" across. Also have blue plating photosynthetic sponge I need to trim...

With no fish, pest control has been a problem. Most algae is non existent since I seeded with pods and have a few snails. I have some bubble but not too bad. However, so many flatworms....Bad pic but all those dots on the glass are worms. I want to do seahorses in here and lower temp like 75...

Been up for a bit I have some assorted leathers, gorgonians, mushrooms, plays/zoas and a pipe organ in there. And a shit ton of flatworms.

For a softie tank, I went with coral skeleton/shells as substrate. This is so I can just toss stuff to stick where they please. Like a giant mushroom box.

Nobody wanted my old Solana AIO so I ripped the chambers out and drilled it for a eshopps overflow and sump. It's set it up in my bedroom home office.
