Upgraded to a 29 Reef





I came across a used 29 and decided that it would make a small but decent upgrade to the 20long reef. So I moved everything over.....and then due to the generosity of a fellow reefer....I was able to add to the LR that I had..along with some new corals. The top pic is of the 29 tank before I added the new rock and coral.

The rest are a couple of pics of the new corals, what I believe is a monipora in the first coral pic.......in the next is a blue mushroom, a couple of leathers and some type of plate coral which I can't remember what it's called.

A very generous friend reefer GAVE me about 40lbs of LR and all the softies in a 40gallon he was taking down. With the rock and some of the coral that I didn't put in the 29....I started up a small 15 gallon reef. I put the redhead goby and the watchman goby in the 15 along with a new emerald crab I purchased for the occasion. I also put the pair of peppermint shrimp in the 15 as well ....and it's really true, they DO eat aptasia !! The rock had been covered with alot of that stuff and now what I have in the 15 is completely aptasia free. Not that I mind the aptasia so much....hehe..... I may toss a few of those shrimp in the 29, but not sure what the six line wrasse would do to them.....
