Little man and I got a moment to put together the t5 rack today. Planning on adding 2 more for future expansion but these will work for now. 2x54 geissman power chrome actinics.

Not taking any chances and taped the bulbs in as my 19 month old somehow knocked out a used bulb yesterday and it shattered on the floor. The rack can be taken down to change bulbs so it's no biggee.

30L: added a rainbow nem today
I had been looking for a rainbow nem and a member of the club had one he was selling quick today that's originally from Khalis. Boys and I drove to grand junction and picked it up, acclimated to the tank perfectly and opened up right away. This was 10 minutes later:

Very nice!

 

[Miah2bzy]

Very nice!

Can't believe how big it is, when I was acclimating it and took it out of the bucket it has already started splitting. Hoping to see something this week, had heard they would split from water changes but hadn't seen it happen right in the bucket before.

The sand really makes the colors pop!

Thanks Charlie! I'm hoping that it'll split and mix in with the macros eventually, the firefish and clownfish really stand out when the glass is cleaned.

Very nice tank!

Thanks Randy! Though it'll pale in comparison to your 90 when its all said and done.
And thanks for the advice with the lights.

Wife came home today to spend time with the boys before going back to the hospital with the new baby (still in NICU). Boys wanted to show mommy the new fish with tentacles (3 yr olds new word).
Mommy: "What's that worm thing?"

Splitting? Went to turnoff lights tonight and found this:

Looks like it's just deflating. At lights out or right before it would always do that. I wouldn't be to concerned about just yet

Good to see its doing well.

Last night was weird coming in to see it shriveled and splurting brown stuff but looks better today. Fed mysis shrimp to the tank and it took well so looks like a keeper thanks again!

 

[Shaunv]

Nice nem! I got mine from Khalis too though mine wasn't that big. The born stuff is probably poop. Mine deflates at night too and then pops back up in the morning.

 

[Fracgorilla]

How's the nem doing?

Doing well. Thanks again!
