@David Dthey represent different plant farms 1-4. Helps us track quality. At this time we are not using the other smaller numbers found on the tags.

@TheSwissAquaristprobably go with Pine or Oak then use a good sealant or stain to keep the wood protected and from rotting.

@Streetwisenone in stock at this moment hopefully next week and I'll see if I can post up a good pic. Thought these swords were popping and wanted to share a pic with this forum.

Marble Queen Sword back in stock and they are NICE!!!

Checkout these cute little beauties! Crypt Pink Flamingo back in stock!

If you can get Chemiclean that will work. Reef keepers use to to kill Red Cyanobacteria. I have used it in my nano planted tank with success.

@eatyourpeasI don't have a AIO marine cube. Just have a standard 29 gallon reef.

Checkout this nice group of Anubias Hastifolia. These get nice long stems with leaves that eventually grow arrow pointed to heart shaped. Also grow to a nice size of up to 16 inches.

@Aliciagwe have been getting fish but I have been busy helping around in the company so unfortunately the fish list was put on the back burner. Hopefully now I can now get these back to normal release days on Wednesday or Thursdays going forward.

I love dottybacks. I got a strawberry basslet in my tank. One of the last fishes I added so aggression is actually fairly minimal

Cool tank build I agree I kind of like the pest anemones I always thought they looked cool.

@Petebeen a while since I have had these in shop. Kind of of like a molly bred with a ender for size and attitude if that makes since. They get striped patterns for the males when natural light hits them, they look fairly stunning especially once the males are mature and all colored up. Both sexes get a blue sparkle to them. I would say fun fish for 10 gallons and up.

@Steph’s Fish and PlantsHow did you get your mantis shrimp and what's your thoughts on it as a pet? I assume purchased but if it was a hitch hiker awesome score! I always had interest in a Mantis shrimp but was curious if its like keeping certain tarantulas in that its basically a pet hole that comes out really quickly to feed and that's about it. Was curious if they interact with you. I remember watching a documentary on them and I felt like they have fairly good intelligence.

Nice digging the mantis shrimp!

If I recall reading it correctly but I believe air powered skimmers actually add a lot of dissolved oxygen in the aquarium and yes I get some that escape and my tunze filter will collect it and occasionally burp out them after a while.

@eatyourpeasits not bad, I certainly recommend it if your tank has a small AIO filter area or don't mind seeing it inside your tank. Makes a very watery skimate though. Its a Reef Glass nano skimmer. Currently running the USB nano air pump to run it. You have to DIY the collection cup which was easy. Supposedly rated up to 30 gallons. I like the sleek look of it and overall it runs fairly quietly.

Little bit of an update on the tank. Note I suspect my Zebra Mat anemone might have a taste for blennies with 2 going down.

@Fish FolkPictures are of an Albino Paradise and Blue Paradise. We do get a Red Flame Paradise but none in stock at this time. That looks like the very bottom one of the good looking males in your first post. We find that they do well with most rainbows, danios, loaches, and certain barbs and or cyprinids for tank mates. Great setup I have done in shop was dojo loaches, giant danios, and paradise fish. Great trio of cool water fish.
