Was looking over the tank and came across this weird guy. Since I have had sundial snails in the past, I was quick to get the tweezers after him.

I plan to have a good skimmer, and some chaeto, and supplementing with two part as opposed to a reactor. Just too costly for me right now, especially on a 20 gallon. It will have about 15lbs of LR in the display and another 15 in the sump, or at least thats the plan. I dont have my rock structure planned ...

I think this is my first blog post here on Reef Addicts.Today I've been trying to make some changes to my rock work, namely removing a lot of it, because of it catching food and other undesirables. I also went through a major scrub down on some hair algae about two months ago, and added 6 mithrax crabs that have destroyed the bubble algae. As much as I think they are jerks, I have to contend that they do a good job.
