Tank finish cycling first week of April! Now I am having the best time getting new occupants for it. I have a clown fish Goby and shrimp (trying to pair). only about 15 pounds of live rick right now but slowly adding more. And my favorite part is my newest additions, Trumpet Coral and a Tongue Coral. Pics attached IMG_0353.JPGIMG_0354.JPGfor some reason they are sideways >.> i will have to work on this :D

Very nice. What kind of shrimp and goby do you have? They are one of the funnest pairs to watch IMO.

Watchman goby and they said he was a pistol shrimp, But his colors are different from the one I had in my aquarium before. The one I have now has Blue legs and his body is a reddish orange. just waiting to see if they will pair

but I have a question both the tongue coral and the trumpet are on pegs. Would it be safe to remove the pegs or will they eventually come off of them?

Yes you can take them off the plugs. The are glued on them with superglue which is now brittle. You will want to gently pry under and around the coral with a small flathead or similar to crack the glue.

Very nice tank! I don't want to derail your thread….but I have a question. When you add more live rock, will you cycle again?

If the rock is precured you can either bring a bucket of tank water after a w/c to transport it or if its not a long trip just keep it wet and you'll have minimal die off might get a small ammonia spike but no new cycles.
