Planning to keep as reef tank with a few fish :
2 True Percula clowns
And either a Lawnmower Blenny
or a Black Cap Basslet.

As of now have found a few hitch hikers in tank:
2 fire worms
and several small snails.

All my levels are perfect atm except my nitrates, planning a water change tomorrow to see how that goes the might start adding cleaner crew on sat.

Any comments or suggestions feel free to post em.

Beautiful rock! Do you have something growing in the center where there is the purple?

Sorry I am still rather new. I was wondering because yesterday I bought a piece of live rock and got it home to find it had several colonies of zooanthids.
