Dark Side Progression...

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Happy to hear about the Clown and Anemone.
Thanks.
Also, I doubt about the LFS label information of my clown fish species so I dug up more reading and compared, I found out that my clown fish is a true percula clownfish species and not Ocellaris clownfish species :). It doesn't change anything in my setup but I want to make sure to ID it right species :)

Last night, my shrimp crew were on Zebra body and face cleaning it out and it just laying there and enjoy the massages :)
It's funny first the zebra encounter the shrimp when they first introduced into the tank, the Zebra was run away from the shrimp when their antenna contact it, I was laughed so hard :) suck that I couldn't take picture or video it because it's always stay in his favorite cave and rarely wander out, I'm not even see its full body length for last few weeks.

Also, there is an issue between those 2 diamond goby. I didn't witness the territorial or fighting (well, I saw the other goby was biting the other one tail and drag it to other area before I decided to take it out) but this morning 1 goby back half of its body damage pretty bad and can't swim at all so I took it out and put it in a bucket with an air stone before I go to work, I don't thing it going to make it though, so my hope is goes bye bye for a true mated goby pair :(
 
Sad news is that the injured goby is death.
The good news is my new light set is arrived few days early :) you can see a huge different between the old vs new light, picture below:

NEW LIGHT (simple US current Orbit marine light with preset programmer)

Another thing is my Anemone is moving out its old location, the clown fish still follow it but I'm not sure this Anemone moving to get the better place or its dying out like some other reefers told me about my Anemone got bleached, I can only wait and see now!

I hope the Anemone continues to thrive for the Clownfish.

Last night I couldn't sleep because my fish keep jumping and making noise, the new light has a preset to turn off moonlight around Midnight and my fish went crazy, I guess they got used with whole night with moonlight up and scared when the tank total light out darkness. I saw my Anemone went under the rock and stay there, I probably need to re-arrange my rock works after work today to get it out, if it doesn't know how to get out of its own....

Is it possible for you to up the timer for the moonlight to go off almost right before the daylights came on.

Yeah, I can easily do that.
I just want see how the preset program work, I'll let it run for few more night and see if my fish get used with the new light cycle. These light have a lot of LED (72/72 of blue/artinic/full spectrum LED) so even moonlight up it's still very bright and running at 10% density.
