It’s torch time!
There’s nothing quite like watching the tentacles gently sway with the water, creating a mesmerising dance in your aquarium.

I love my clownfishes but I'm mainly here for the invertebrates--the corals, mollusks, worms, arthropods, and the ecosystem. The Pencil Urchin was out and about this morning--just caught him with the camera. As soon the lights came up, he crawled back into his burrow. Info: probably a Slate Pencil Urchin (Eucidaris tribuloides) from the Caribbean. I have to keep an eye on this guy. He mainly feeds on sponges with the occasional coral meal. I have quite a bit of encrusting sponge (orange patch toward the top center) and the undersides of other rocks.

Did you know that coral reefs, which cover less than 1% of the ocean floor, are home to more than 25% of all marine life? They are among the most valuable and vulnerable ecosystems on Earth. They provide many benefits and services to humans and the environment. However, many threats and challenges endanger coral reefs. Therefore, we must learn more about them to protect them.
Did you know that coral reefs are animals, not plants? Strange, right? But that is a fact that we will also cover in the blog.
If you want to know more about coral reefs, their types, their importance, and how to conserve them, keep reading. You will be amazed by the beauty and wonder of these amazing marine ecosystems.

Oh gosh, my reef has changed an absolutely ridiculous amount in the past year since this post! I will definitely be writing a post about everything that has happened but suffice to say: Purrling Reef is a very different place now and if I can help it I will never not have a reef tank!❤️ It's a massive source of happiness and pride for me (even though sometimes it can be mega stressful, like my slow, painful discovery that Clyde the goby has far too much in common with her 1930s killer namesake temperament-wise.)
Meet Purrling Reef, aka the 13.5 gallon Fluval Evo reef aquarium that I forgot to tell you all about before: in today's episode: in which Moby scares the sh-! out of me (he's good at that.)
This is Moby, my baby Amphiprion ocellaris clownfish, who, providing that he survives my relative incompetence may live 15+ years. Clownfish are known for being quite hardy fish and people used to use them to cycle their aquariums which is now recognized by many reef aquarists as mild animal cruelty. (Therefore I cycled Purrling Reef using pure ammonia instead.) Along with my (probably female) yellow watchman goby Clyde, Moby has been in Purrling Reef for about a month now.
Things are going well; ammonia is at 0 ppm, nitrates are usually at 0 ppm, phosphates are usually at .25 ppm, salinity is stable at 1.025, and my PH hovers at a somewhat soft but okay 7-7.5. Having at last gotten through the worst of the summer heat and having finally figured out how to set up my inkbird temperature properly, Purrling Reef's waters stay a comfy 25°C (78°F,) all day and night long.
Things are going well, so naturally Moby opted to scare the crap out of me this morning by acting like he was dying.
WTF MOBY.
Terrified for his life I promptly did a water change and dosed the tank with Seachem Prime (which detoxifies ammonia as well as chemicals like chlorine,) then Seachem Stress Guard (which soothes fish.) My ammonia was at zero but I thought that the Prime was a good idea anyway.
Moby promptly stopped looking like he wanted to be crab food, so I went to work; when I came home he was back to his annoying ol' habit of chilling by the filter outflow.
WHY FISH.
After testing all of my water parameters again and finding that all seems well I turned my attention to my newest addition to my reef: Spook the Halloween Hermit crab. I actually call him Captain Spook because he is rather overwhelmingly the least useless member of my cleanup crew. Usually, since I got him he clams up at my approach, sucking as much of his body as he can into the enormous conch snail shell which he adopted as his mobile home.
Chances are he murdered the original inhabitant of this shell.
Today though Spook decided not to spook at my approach which I have two theiries for:
1. The vast anti-Keplar fortifications that I set out around the aquarium double-sided tape traps are working! Yay! (Keplar must not be scaring my aquarium inhabitants as much anymore.)
2. My water is still screwed up so Spook is feeling weird. Given that I have only been at this for like three months... yeah, I can't ignore this possibility.
It was rather remarkable getting to see his white carapace up close for once. While it reminded me that he is in fact a sea bug, but I refuse to hold this against me due to his janitorial awesomeness and the fact that he is much less anxiety inducing than Moby. (Although I live in fear of him eating one of my two puny dwarf hermit crabs.
I can't wait until I can adopt more livestock; Purrling Reef definitely has a job opening available for an emerald crab! (Captain Spook does not like salad.)
Also, here's
Also, here's Clyde the yellow watchman giby who would like me to mention her job a for a pistol shrimp; in the wild watchman gobies live with these shrimp.
If she gets a pistol shrimp friend maybe she'll coe out of her den more often.

The copperband butterflyfish (Chelmon rostratus), also known as the beaked coral fish, is found in reefs in both the Pacific and Indian Oceans. This butterflyfish is one of the three species that make up the genus Chelmon and all have long beaks. These fish are easily identified by the yellow banding and long snout. The young fish are similar in appearance to adult fish. Butterflyfish grow up to 20 cm in length. The fish appears taller than its length because of its compressed, deep-bodied form with a long dorsal and posterior fins as well as its vertical yellow stripes on a white background. The snout is long and slender, and the dark eye of the fish is less conspicuous than the dark eye-spot on the dorsal fin. The base of the tail features a dark band that runs perpendicular to the tail. Butterflyfish may be distinguished from the similar C. marginalis by their color pattern and number of dorsal fin rays. #aquarium #fish #aquascape #fishtank #aquariumhobby #reef #aquascaping #aquariumfish #freshwateraquarium #aquariums #plantedtank #aquariumlife #tropicalfish #reeftank #plantedaquarium #fishkeeping #cichlids #nature #freshwater #aquariumsofinstagram #cichlid #natureaquarium #bettafish #coral #aquascaper #ikanhias #freshwaterfish #reefaquarium #betta #cichlidtank
