    it is a 400 gallon system, with a 240 gallon display and a 50 gallon clam tank - the rest is sump/fuge. all of these fish are in the display, as i will be raising cuttlefish again in the near future in the clam tank.

    I had a faulty powerhead electrocute and kill all of my livestock and lost all but 2 corals. It has taken awhile, however, I have restocked my livestock and have added several new corals. I have a foxface, a sailfin tang, two 4 stripe damsels, 2 clown fish, a 6 line wrasse, 5 chromis, a green star fish and my skunk cleaner shrimp. Mostof my corals are softies with a couple of LPS mixed in.
    Oh No, DID I DO THAT!

    sorry to hear about that, glad you stuck in there and have begun to recover.

    well, i broke down and got one more ritteri to try. i also bought six higher par t5 bulbs to replace half of my actinics to make sure the tank gets enough light in the next few months.

    beautiful fish. I hope it all works out. Is the marine Beta eating frozen food?

    i was running all 580 watts of uri super actinic. i just changed half of the bulbs out to glo brand power-glow bulbs (the box says it is 18K, but it looks more like 10-12K). just needed to increase the par a bit to make sure that anemone is getting enough light.

    yes the betta does eat frozen food, but they are fun to watch when hunting small shrimp.
