Thanks, I am very happy with the scopas so far and I am looking forward to seeing it grow up. And one of my RBTAs split yesterday in my 20 long, so soon my tank will have at least one anemone in it. I am pretty excited to keep transferring everything over.

Thank you, I think its turning out pretty decent.
I am Normal, IL.
Moved over everything from my 20 long today. Hopefully everything goes well and the anemones keep growing. I moved one in a couple weeks ago and it seems to be doing ok. Everything is still opening up but i took a few quick picks anyways.
Also picked up 6 or 7 new Zoas from a local guy a few hours ago. Not all are opened up yet, but I'm not too worried about them. Took a few pics while the LEDs were still on. Also got a big feather duster and a ricordea. I am really liking how this tanks coming along.

Yeah, they are. I had moved them a couple hours before I took that pic. All my parameters are in check though so I think its just a matter of finding a spot they like and adjusting to the different light and new tank. BTAs are pretty tough though, so we will see.
Few more pickups. I am done buying fish for this tank now with the addition of a Halichoeres Melanurus. I am surprised that it is as outgoing and out in the open as it is. It is yet to burrow into the sand, but I have heard that sometimes they might just sleep in the rocks. I also picked up a new zoa and a large polyped zoa as well. I moved everything around and got rid of about 10 pounds of rock.
First Pic is of the new fish and zoas near its tail and the 2nd pic is the big polyped one.

Very little is cooler than a halichores wrasse yawn...except for a lionfish...and some groupers.
Their teeth are awesome.
Pretty fish man, glad to hear/see that everything is still going well and coming along.

I think its safe to say that the anemones have settled in nicely and the clowns are loving them. Im probably going to get rid of a couple since they are packed in there so tight. Probably trade them in for some more LPS or zoas.
The orange big polyped zoas in the middle of the tank and my sympodium are growing like crazy too. I also added my old fixture from my 20 with 2 new actinic bulbs and I really like the color. I am running it one hour before and after my main light comes on. The pic of the sympodium is under the small actinic light only.
