Six days after introduction, I can safely say that all three blue chromis are eating. Jeez, it reminds me of my Lookdown fiasco! Anyway, they look good, so yay.

After looking at the old pics and my current tank situation, I realize that I miss the green. With all that caulerpa, the reds really popped. Now, with almost no green, the reds look dull and monotonous. So, I have ordered some greens-tufted joint algae and caulerpa cupressoides. This particular caulerpa is supposed to be slower growing, so I don't anticipate having to prune weekly again. Anybody have any experience with this one? Both of these macros are said to hang out in seagrass beds, so they should fit in well in my tank.

If I can muster the gumption, I'll try to get the tank presentable enough to snap some pics this weekend. Yay!
