I did dwarfs and it was A LOT of work. They didn't eat pods for me. Didn't have the right movement to attract their interest. I hatched baby brine for them and ended up with hydroids because I didn't decapsulate them. They do best in a small dedicated tank. Even a little bit of flow is too much for them

Also currently working on getting access to a 3d printer to print some floating Seahorse feeding troughs with hitching posts.

Hey Seth, I have a 3D printer! I'm looking for a couple printing projects to help me learn the process.

I might just go that route. A buddy in Hawaii is raising some very nice purplish maroon rendi's and I might have him ship me some.

If it is hard, then you might get sick of it. If you get sick of it, then you might want to sell it... and get an eye patch. If you sell them, then the next person probably won't care as much as you did... and you'll end up in a ditch since people will think that you are tough. Don't get cable and then have to sell your dwarf seahorses. ...wait, did I just confuse two totally different things?

I was saying I probably won't do the dwarf seahorses and instead get a few rendi's instead.

Glad to see you putting the tank to use Seth! Careful with a 400w over that, when I was using it, it was a TON of light. The par readings are somewhere around here. I think it was ~600 on the bottom, with the light set as it should be, had to pull it way up to get the par down.

its a 6 month old bulb so I should be fine. Not to mention I will be having plants and not corals.

Alright I decided to plumb my 70DD in to the new tank and transfer all my live rock from the sump of the 70DD over to the 40 breeder. Massive remote fuge! Also added some macro and live rock to the 104g.

Thanks! The diatoms are finally going away. But with all the macroalgae I might need to put iron and trace elements on a dosing pump with how much they are scraping from the water.
