"I would not describe the 75 as display worthy. I converted it to a sump with drilled holes, Plexiglas separation walls and all."
Some one should grab the 75 gallon asap. That's a steal @ $50.
No saltwater fish or corals, but they do carry live rock which is a little strange. I think they replaced their saltwater section with freshwater nano fish and shrimp.
Thanks Herb, it was great to see you guys again and do a little reminiscing. The 29 will make a nice QT tank that can folded up and put in a closet when not needed.
Kind of, but I "down graded" to freshwater planted tanks and freshwater shrimp. But who knows I kept a lot of my saltwater gear.
Maybe when the college tuition payments are done I'll jump back into salt.
That's how I got mine into a BTA. MELEV's tube slide trick is pretty cool too. But only works when you're adding them for the first time.

In a tank that size you won't be able to successfully mix anemones. You could get different color morphs of BTAs though and add them.

Mantis shrimp can make a loud cracking sound. I used to hear one in my tank late at night. It sounded like someone was hitting the glass with a coin. If you have fish, shrimp and snails mysteriously disappearing with no bodies it's likely a mantis shrimp.
Get an ATO to stabilize the salinity and then keep your hands out of the tank. The constant fussing irritates corals and livestock. It took me a long time to learn only intervene when absolutely necessary.
That's a good sign with the Mueller. I had a similar experience with my Copperband, after the aiptasia were gone it started to get thin so I sold it to someone that had no tangs. You could make a feeding station, it's basically a small container with holes drilled into it that only the...
Peppermint shrimp and a copper band butterfly worked for me as well. Your tank is probably to big to use nudibranchs.
Are you going to use the 180 for a refugium?
As a side note, dont drink ro/di water it's not good for you. Some put the drinking water tank after the ro but before the di...
Nerites will climb out of the water and go for a walk. So make sure you have a screen on the top of your take or make a habit of looking around for them.
