The 75gal reef tank cycle has started!!!!!!!

I can take some but it really dose look the same as the last pictures. There isn't even any algae. I thought there might be diatoms by now but no.

Man I about rolled out of my seat when I read this line.. Most of us battle daily to make sure we only have the algae that we want in our tanks and not the stuff we don't. Then you seem upset that you don't have diatoms.. LOL.. Thanks for making me chuckle. ;)

At least you know what your up for..

Your welcome! Yeah I just figured that everything else seems to be going so fast that they would have been here by now. I don't want them but know that we will and that that is another sign of things doing what they are suppose to. No my GF had green algae and I don't really look forward to that phase.

Hey Ithink I found a big Sea Squrt in there now. I thought it was apart of the rock but no.

Yeah that is kinda like them but that one looks like it might be bigger then ours and so far they are brown in color.

Trust me, the shot I shared is a macro, they are really rather small.

What the hell is it? is it good bad or other wise?

Tunicate/sea squirt is a filter feeder, leave it be.

Yes, that is what that is.
 
Cool is there anything you have to do for them? I got some other things popping up that I have to try and get a picture of. There clear, long and have two openings at the end. i think they might be kinda the same thing as the squirts but a bit different.

I just saw some worm like things that ran when a flash hit them. They move quick so I can see what they really look like.
