Winning our war on algae!

We've had a lot of changes since the last post and the majority of these changes were in the hope of getting rid of our algae problem, and...I think we're getting there!

The first is our rabbit fish called Rambo who we have to be careful with because it apparently has some nasty stinging spines when scared!

Marcel has also made a home made device with a box, granny square, red and blue lights. Think it works by encouraging algae to grow on the granny square rather than the tank. But don't quote me on this!

We also have two new gobies : Obi and Jelly. Obi was supposed to sift sand but does bugger all. Jelly fortunately is pretty good and does what Obi refuses to!

Marcel has also gone a bit mad with coral shopping! 

This is a trachyphylia from Swallow in East Harling.

This is a Maze coral from Cambridge Coral Tech.

This is a purple acans I chose from Distant Waters in Norwich.

These flowers are Clove Polyps, again from Swallow. 

And this is a clam that Polly and Marcel picked up for me. I realise it's not a coral but I've always wanted one of these! The colours are so beautiful when it opens up a bit!

We are going coral shopping again this weekend, this time to Harlow and Ipswich, can't wait to see what we find!
