    Clownfish redecorates tank

    I picked up a croc island scoly from todays frag swap, and I'm not sure if my clowns like where I put it. https://youtu.be/gEv_3_UY92M I've seen them push snails and hermits around. They are the only fish in the frag tank, and are pretty territorial over what goes into or near that corner of...

    Eric's 90

    Hi! Thought I'd finally share some pictures of my 90 gallon reef system. The tank hits it's 1 year anniversary this month and corals are finally starting to grow. Coral photos: https://www.flickr.com/gp/28823275@N06/9J6U7V Tank setup photos: https://www.flickr.com/gp/28823275@N06/W7oH4F...
