... but the refugium is still lit up, it's easy to grab my Nikon and get a few more pictures for the night.

Feather caulerpa fills the refugium from end to end.

These sponges are growing on the back wall, so I moved some plants out of the way to inspect them. I spy some red feather dusters, lots of spirorbid worms, and some amphipods scurrying around.

Here's a closer view, thanks to those extension tubes. See the pink stuff to the right of the sponge? That's coralline growth.

I also spotted a tiny Keyhole Limpet on the wall, right above that filter feeder feathery worm. And that's an asterina starfish on the lower right corner.

I do try to take pictures of different things so you don't grow bored with my blogs. Speaking of which, more of you need to be blogging about your tanks so we can see how they are doing.

    I'm looking forward to your update. Plug in the battery charger so you don't have any excuses, and clean the glass.
