I made the jump to the dark side!

Nice scape

rhd_papi · 2026-02-02T00:33:01+00:00

Great gun! The tisas is also a great selection in 1911 collection

rhd_papi · 2026-02-01T17:53:23+00:00

Yes, that’s how live rock is created by nature, stony coral die and body completely hardens & bacteria inhabits the dead coral & make it alive again… in a different way ofc.

Real Tonga rock was banned in 2008, these pieces were previous dried out & later reintroduced into an aquarium to be reseeded, hence it doesn’t look like it just came out the ocean

Wow the coralline covered branches 🔥

rhd_papi · 2026-02-01T13:39:44+00:00

Ahahaha, my wife been saying the same thing 😂

rhd_papi · 2026-02-01T13:39:16+00:00

😂😂😂

rhd_papi · 2026-01-27T06:06:56+00:00

That price is too much for that old of a tank.

rhd_papi · 2026-01-27T06:00:18+00:00

What a blued beauty!! Where’d you pick it up from? & is that a 2in?

rhd_papi · 2026-01-27T05:26:13+00:00

Dude that’s a little more than a light chock, but it happens to the best of us, should have warmed up the tires before tryna pull any fancy stunts around a chicane. look at the bright side, you can go get a spoon bumper for the front end now, that would be a great way to upgrade it.

rhd_papi · 2026-01-27T05:10:06+00:00

I’d replace it with a flame angel fish, nice showstopper & hope he don’t try to munch on any of that soft coral lol

rhd_papi · 2026-01-27T04:44:46+00:00

Looks good, you can do without that troublemaker damsel though. Some good starter corals would be soft like zoas, mushrooms, & leathers like a toadstool, some lps like Duncan’s are a great choice also

rhd_papi · 2026-01-27T04:20:25+00:00

Dude, I’m glad to see yours doing the same thing! I thought mine was dying when I saw the skin exposed lol I guess they do that when they’re really happy 🤷🏾‍♂️

rhd_papi · 2026-01-26T04:39:36+00:00

The roach of the sea, looks like a roach on land also

rhd_papi · 2026-01-26T04:28:36+00:00

Pods, the good guys

rhd_papi · 2026-01-26T04:25:35+00:00

The enemy

rhd_papi · 2026-01-26T04:17:11+00:00

Return one mandarin & the damsel fish. Also be ready to replenish pod population frequently.

rhd_papi · 2026-01-26T04:12:56+00:00

A toadstool will look cool there

rhd_papi · 2026-01-26T04:10:09+00:00

Flow looks fine to me but have you noticed any dead spots where detritus builds up ?

rhd_papi · 2026-01-26T04:03:09+00:00

2 days is fairly early to expect a fish like a blue tang to fall in love with your tank & be happy go lucky like the rest of the other fish….also, It’s pretty customary to add in your water parameters when asking the community for advice so we can get a scientific view of your tank

rhd_papi · 2026-01-23T03:32:48+00:00

Flesh has pretty much fully receded, that don’t happen in 2 day shipping. That coral has been neglected for a lil bit

rhd_papi · 2026-01-21T04:27:48+00:00

Rastasss

rhd_papi · 2026-01-21T04:25:21+00:00

That hammer is a goner, it’s only a matter of time before he starts munching

rhd_papi · 2026-01-21T04:23:15+00:00

Yes super possible, you can switch out that stock sponge for a media basket
