It is slowly developing and that is good for developing my patience :)
Jesús disappeared for awhile and I only ever saw one nassarius snail at a time, so I thought I had lost one...I was not hopeful. It's all good though, I am seeing everyone and I discovered this morning that Jesús has molted his exoskeleton...he might be looking for a new shell soon :)
I have also got a couple more coral frags, you can see Xenia here and there is the new Star Polyp behind her:
This is the Star Polyp, I think it looks a bit like heather:
I also got some leather coral:
And this is the new mushroom - I like the stripey ones, but I think the other ones are a bit boring. This frag also came with some feather dusters (I think) and 2 Aiptasia, one of which is inhibiting the mushroom (you can see it in the photo).
The diatoms have receded and the Trochus snail is now eating again (he just sat there for days!). It looks great! I am mixing up my own seawater now and testing nearly every day. The new tank certainly keeps me out of trouble! But don't worry, I'm not neglecting my fish - they are very happy and I wish Anabel could do something about keeping the flat clean - she does a stellar job on the fish tank. It's never been that clean and I think Mr. Yamato has to work more to find something to eat :)
More later!!!!
