the CUC is correct, but the problem is not. It most definatly is Bryopsis. It structurally(?) bears no significance to hair algae in the fact that it is fern like, frilly, elongated, etc.
Thought about Poors advice....I figured I would need some "big mouths" down the line anyways and if there is a chance they'd help this go faster and smoother what the hell? rofl!
Got 3 for 7$ @ Petworld. Also saw they arent sponsoring MARSH anymore. In good news on them, Their tanks are looking better and I'm really tryin to support them since they are the closest and seem to be making an effort. Seems like they are gettin the aiptasia and red slime under control. Their fish also look 100% better than Petcos, who had a foxface that had NO COLOR today. I felt bad for him :< Petco is really shocking me because 2 months ago all of their stock looked good and healthy and clean and now its just.......stuff I wouldnt really put in my tank, saltwater or fresh. Anywho figured Id snap a pic of the clown givin the snails a hard time. Feisty lil bugger!
Well the Kent Tech-M trick seems to be working well now that I am over 1300. The Turbos wont touch the stuff though. :/ It looked like they were for a second, then nothing after that. NOTHING will eat it except an emerald crab I caught tearin down 2 stalks...thats about it though. BUT......I must be doing somthing right cause I have eggs......NO idea what snail did it. I kinda doubt they are from the Dwarf Cerith in the pic...hes just soooo small! LOL!
Some more pics. Remember things are still a bit unhappy from the water change.
Re-arranged FTS:
Yuma:
Happier Green Shroom, still not open all the way, but way more than he was in the light:
Irritated Flowerpot:
Moved GSP:
Moved Red Grac.
Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum:
I know one of them will turn out to be a female and the other a male...but for some reason I find the need to name everything I get "Steve" and "Ed"....Even the two executioners that take up each of my sholderblades are called steve and ed.....wth?
Ran tests, everything back down to 0/0/0. Figured my tank has a phosphate prob right now since it seems I have gone through a diatom bloom again. I think it may be linked to the fact I been feeding my Flowerpot the Phyto-feast. I cut back on the clowns feeding regimen so hopefully that will help. Husband picked up a starfish today........I think it is a sand-sifting star. He said they had them in their reef displays so I assume its reef safe. I'll keep an eye on him either way.
TONS of Pics:
Star:
He fell over....
He's righted himself!
Bleh:

They will NOT stop hosting the magfloat!!!!!!!! D:<
lol thanks! Yea is basically gone. I dont see a single thread of it left. Its been gone for about 2 weeks now give or tank a few days. Now Im combating what looks like blue/green cyano :<
Well I decided I could use some more flow in the front...but the only way to do that would be to take away from the back...or is it? I salvaged a old ugly 900GPH powerhead from the old saltwater days, modded a extra AC70 intake and shoved it onto the powerheads intake since it didnt have one. Viola! The ugly one can go in the back, and the KNano can come back up front! The back powerhead will turn on at night since thats the only outlet left on the strip but thats okay.
Im not entirely sure if the flowerpot likes being blown around, but from what Ive been reading they can be found in shallow, turbulent waters so I'll keep an eye on it as usual. My clowns are starting to shudder at one another. The black one does it more than the orange one so I have a feeling he'll turn out to be the boy. The Yuma is expanding more and more. I wish It would reproduce! Ive only had it a week but I want MORE! lol! The little shroom that the big one left behind seems quite happy as well.
Anywho, pics...
Hide your ugly equipment
turbulent flowerpot:
WAY overexposed FTS. I WISH my sand was that clean!:
I just noticed some lovely coralline growth on my glass! They are a little smaller than a pencil eraser head, but they are 100% Pink/Purple coralline! Woot!
also forgot to post a video of my clown deciding to make the flower a home:
