Yesterday, I added 3 Blue Green Chromis (Chromis viridis) to the tank. They are a schooling damsel fish that are pretty hardy. Today, they seem to be doing well. Austin named them Jennifer, Pretty, and Over. I have no idea what that means.
The picture below is not that great, but it's the only picture out of about 50 that had all three in it.

The tank is doing pretty well. Ammonia has spiked and gone back down to 0 ppm. Nitrites spiked at about 0.25 ppm and are coming down (they are about 0.125 ppm or so now.) Nitrates were 20 ppm yesterday, but are down to about 10 ppm today. I'm going to add a page to this site soon that shows the trends of all the parameters I measure.
Yesterday, I spent some time pruning all the macroalgae on the live rock (mostly the Halmedia). I still have a bit more I'd like to prune, though. I added some Chaetomorpha macro algae to the fuge yesterday, so I hope it does well and starves any possible nuisance algae from growing in the main display tank.
