Few updates from the last couple of weeks.
The Turbo Snails have been spawning - not there are literally hundreds of little snails cruising around the rocks (its funny as i have never bought Turbo Snails, just inherited them on some live rock).
Image below of them spawning - you could see them spraying and everything!
My eldest 3d printed a little hat for the Urchin in the tank (Urchan has been a bit of a menace lately stealing coral frags!)
I added in a frag of Strawberry Shortcake Acro
My Pink Birdsnest is growing really well, however its looking a little white, so maybe i have the lights too bright? Weird as its sitting in around 300 PAR from memory.
Probably hard to tell - i need to stop taking pics at night when the blues are a lot higher!
Finally - it begins.... My RBA has split, i reckon my Urchan was hanging around near it, which may have triggered it. At the moment its on a rock fairly isolated from the coral, but if it starts moving around then i will take one out. I have this Nem for over a year now and this is the first time it has split, so i dont mind if its only once a year.

Love the nems and yours look great. Miss having them for their colour and vibrancy but absolutely hated how they moved around the tank destroying anything getting in their way.

Yeah, these will be evicted pretty quick if they start doing that!
Thankfully staying in their zone at the moment!

How's the tank been going mate? any updates?

Tank has been going good, everything fairly stable.
Had my biggest hammer just decide to bail out all its heads but one the other week - still have no idea as to why it did it as all the others have been fine!
Started a Goni Garden about 2 weeks ago -
Also got given a Joker Torch for nothing, so that was a win!
Have been struggling to keep SPS alive though, probably need to do an ICP test to make sure theres not something lurking, but its frustrating, other than Red Monti Cap - that's growing great!
Got given some Psammocora to try, but it doesnt seem to be doing that great either!

looking good mate, the goni garden looks cute!
Hope they grow in really well for you!
My 2nd goni isn't far off dying off. Hoping trying to sort the water parameters stops it receding and dying off.... but I reckon it's gone lol
