Ton of New Fish and Coral!!!

The local fish store, where I buy most of my fish and corals from, is moving locations. Today they announced 50% off everything in the store. Luckily, I was able to immediately call and they held the Sailfin and Yellow Tangs for me because the three have been together for years. Even through I raced up there, most of the fish were gone and a lot had already been sold. Luckily, they did hold the three tangs for me!! I was able to get the purple tang also! I also bought a Naso Tang but they won't be able to get him out of the tank for a couple days.

They still do have a black tang that I would LOVE to buy but he was very big and very expensive. (Black tang did end up selling to someone else)

I also picked up a hammer coral and some other coral. I also added up another ~30 lbs of amazing live rock.

The four new tangs are all doing well and getting along well with each other and the fish already in the tank. The Sailfin was a little stressed from the move but he is doing well and eating already. They seem to love their new home and I am happy they are doing well.

New Corals

I added three more corals to my tank:




They are all doing very well, especially the first one. The other two are smaller but seem to be doing fine. I'm exciting about them growing and will probably attach them to rocks in the near future.

Added Live Rock and New Coral

I finally added the live rock to my tank!

I added another 275 lbs so now I have 325 lbs total. The rock is all pristine with Coralline Algae growing everywhere. The fish are still getting used to the change but it is going well.

I also added some additional coral as I am starting to grow different kinds.
