Yes, there are a couple of snails that came on the rock, they have both grown since I installed the tank. There are little sea fans, amphipods and I think even little clams growing on the rocks, frankly I'm very excited, this is perfect for the fish that I intend to keep here. As I mentioned at the beginning of the thread, I would like a second chance with P.multifasciata, document my experience in the following thread:

The multibarred angelfish (Paracentropyge multifasciata), belongs to the small group of 3 species of the 'subgenera' Paracentropyge. This elusive and cryptic fish, gets its characteristic name thanks to the black vertical lines that adorn its body with a yellowish tint, which begins in its...

Today I worked on my 65 gallon tank, the system rebooted after I made the mistake of moving the sand bed on top, it was a fatal mistake, I lost my fish and since then it has only continued to work with rock and sand. Place a 55G container and remove all the water and rocks, this will give me the opportunity to remove the sand and make some adjustments to the tank as soon as I have time and thus begin to restart the system little by little, curiously this was the way I started this tank about 4 years ago. All the rock that I have in my tanks (65 and 27G) has been working since 2013. This is almost 8 years storing beneficial bacteria.

Thank you, Strongarm.Little Do-Overs sometimes can be good. Not good as far as loosing a clean bacteria source available all the time, but it's good you have a creative, I don't give up attitude. In Marine tank keeping, that's #1. It's a bummer! Good luck on the re-boot.
.I'm going to uninstall this tank today. Nightmare weekend, the tank suffered a fracture in the area of the descent (perhaps for several days), on Saturday night just before sleeping when entering my bedroom the smell of burning was unbearable, it turns out that the Water had collected in the entire area below until it finally dripped and fell into two inlets of the multi-outlet. So yesterday I dedicated myself to cleaning the 65 gallon tank to finally pass everything there, a lot of work awaits me, the 27G tank will be repaired and sealed, I will use it as a sump as soon as possible.
