Weekly quick asks thread - September 11, 2020
My mushroom grow out corner :)
Some more SBB Hephaestus action right in the center! A couple of other cool zoanthid friends as well.
My pompom crab cheerleading this morning
Top picture was taken 4 days ago, and bottom is today. Pretty impressed with the CUC!
Feels great to finally be back in the hobby!
Branching GSP when it’s not angry.
Decided to go ahead and try GSP on the back wall. A week in and, at the right angle, I swear it is already starting to attach.
I challenge you to find me a brighter zoa
Majano or aptasia? If it’s majano is it safe to keep around? I’ve never dealt with majano nems before.
Update on the baby Mandarin!
Octospawn and green hairy mushroom acquired from a fellow hobbyist
Stocking order
Spare socks
Was hoping someone would take a look at my frogspawns. The left ones mouth has been inverted for three days. I suspect a birds nest fell on it three nights ago. The birds eat us since died.
Branching GSP is unhappy. Has green alage growing on it. What to do?
Slowly filling up
I know it’s supposed to be about the “reef”, but I’m so getting into fish. No longer a coral purist. (Sorry about sloppy coral placement, still working at it)
okay total newb here.. I’m in the midst of setting up a nano reef tank and I’m wondering how my lighting should be while I’m cycling? Like more blue or yellow? And tips on lighting schedules and anything else would be appreciated!
Mushroom farm
What does this mean for cycling what should I do if anything
Some quick shots I took of my hawkfish and blenny
Any idea what this red stuff is on this flower pot coral ?
Why are my cats eye polyps dying? These two polyps just closed today.

Here is the place to post questions about pest ID, coral/fish ID, your cycle, or any other questions that generally wouldn't start up a conversation. If you have an interesting or unique question please create a new thread so everyone can discuss it in length!

These are some great resources for ID's of pests/algae.

Stocking order

Posted: 11 Sep 2020 09:14 PM PDT

New biocube32 is nearly cycled. Excited to begin adding livestock.

Would like some feedback on the order in which we add our new inhabitants. Here's what we have so far in addition to the cuc:

-royal gramma -ocellaris pair -yellow clown or watchman goby -skunk cleaner shrimp -fire shrimp -coral beauty or flame angel

The dwarf angel would only be added last and once tank is well established and we feel the tank could handle the additional bioload.

Planned corals are Zoas, shrooms, and euphilia

Spare socks

I have a Waterbox 130.4 coming in the next week or two and want some spare mesh and filter socks without costing a ton. Any recommendations for picking up some? (Do not want a cup, roller maybe down the line but not right now).
