1...2...3...4...
And then ... there were 4! Yup you read right...4 anemones. We gotta have something in this tank that works...guess its Anemones. They all look good and are eating well. How many are we gonna end up with???
1st rule in maintaining a salt water tank is check your levels, check your levels and if all else fails...CHECK YOUR LEVELS SARAH! OOPS, checked my levels, Ammonia/Nitrite/Nitrate all good....ALK??? NOT GOOD... a little low...ok a LOT low...so panic sets in and I add all the stuff...and wait....it won't hurt anything but the corals...feather dusters and it is just better to be right...and check the CA too...LOW...not as bad as the ALK but...teaches me a lesson to check them every 2 weeks and make adjustments because so much is growing in there they are using it all up. The pH is good though so...caught it in time. Good thing too...our fish have arrived at Ken and Linny's. 1 Tang, 1 Lawnmower Blenny, a couple of Yellow Wrasse, and more! YAY...so the wrasses go in 1st to help with bug control...then in goes the tang to get rid of the "lawn" that is creeping out of control...and last the Blenny for now. Just cuz he's not really fast and is on the bottom all the time....hopefully NOT Isopod food. AAAAHHH sure is scary to add more fish. Our Chromis will be in within a couple of weeks. YAY!
