First coral. Noticed a couple green spots and a two pink spots. Maybe some coralline growing?

Here's a pic of the rock. I tried scrapping it with some tongs and it didn't scratch it. So I would assume it's green coraline with a little pink here and there. I guess better coraline than some other stuff..

I think its coralline too! woot!

I have been holding off on a tang on mine.. patience patience (which i don't have..)

What is your future plan, as far as the fish goes?

 

[Brian085]

Thanks. As far as fish maybe two snow flake clowns. They will probably be next. Then possibly a goby or something low level.

Some new pics

We were up in jersey yesterday and stopped at aquarium center. Pretty nice place. I picked up this plate coral. Probably should of done some research on them first. I guess we will see how it goes.

Looks great!

Tank looks great!
I will say what I wish I did was set up a qt tank!
You have an amazing opportunity with only two fish in the tank and such minimal rock work to really get them out qt them,treat proactively and fallow the tank out.
Maybe focus on some corals and such.
You have a salt mixing station and everything. You are in a great position to set up a quarantine.
Good luck and the tank looks great!

That's one of my lfs
It's looking nice in their now

Next time look up tsm corals tho

 

[Brian085]

Yeah I do have a couple tanks around. I know I probably should do a quarantine. I suppose just water changes in quarantine tanks since there would be no live rock? I suppose I would continue to feed the display for the snails and coral etc?

I'll keep tsm coral in mind. I'm not often in jersey. I live in Hanover pa about 2.5-3 hours away.

I was impressed how aquarium center looked. I most often go to that fish place in Lancaster but things were looking rough there last time.

Well it's worth the drive hit them up hey are sponsors on this forum tell them justin sent ya

 

[Brian085]

I wil certainly keep them in mind next time I'm in the area.

Haven't set up the qarentine yet. Looks like I'm getting some diatoms. Probably from feeding heavy to try and fatten the tang up. His color looks a little better but still a little faded in spots. I'm not sure how long the process takes to color back up? There's some scales around the eyes that have been white from day one I believe. I think once they turn white they would never yellow back up? I believe the two corals are looking good. Maybe even gotten a little bigger.

It's been a while since my last update. Got two clowns and picked up a couple sad looking coral today from my local petco which had 75% off.

Two of the zoa frags haven't opened yet. One I can see a green color to them. The other have started opening. The two clowns seem to always be with each other. The tang is still pretty timid as always.
