Hi all. It's been quite a while since I last posted any pics so I thought I'd post my progress. Corals are still quite small but I am seeing some growth (finally) after changing the ballasts that came with my Oddysea bargain basement lights for a Blue wave dual ballast I picked up in the PA group buy. Its been a challenge to say the least but I licked the hair algae problem i had in late summer into fall, got my parameters stable and as I said improved my lighting. Hopefully I'll be able to post some pics of nice sized flourishing corals over time. Sorry for the crappy pics but I only have a point and shoot camera and the damn fish wouldn't stay still.
The Gold Rim tang is my favorite fish (even though he has a vendetta against my Chromis) - active and to my eye very pretty. The Christmas Wrasse has been in the tank since last April and has grown considerably and is a model citizen. I bought the Tamarin Wrasse last week without knowing how poorly they do in home aquariums. I feel badly about that because I try to plan my purchases a little better than that. So far he is doing fine and is eating brine shrimp. If anybody has had any success keeping one I'd appreciate any advice you can give.
