The fire shrimp will also clean the fish like a cleaner shrimp and sets up a cleaning station. Oh and looks cool! LolQuite often, one of the first thing a Shrimp will do when added to a tank is to shed it's skin, so it is normal for it to hide away until the new soft skin hardens up a bit. I have never ever bought a Fire Shrimp. What do they do? The Golden Wrasse is similar to my Banana Wrasse. I love the stripes they get down their faces as they get older. I've never had a Naso Tang either. They get quite big don't they?
I always use the box to acclimatize the fish. I also stick an old mirror to the opposite end of the tank to that which I release the newbies. In fact I use one of the wife's old make-up mirrors, you know, the ones they carry around with them. They are small and are held on easily with some cellotape. Any fish that has aggressive tendencies will usually attack 'one of their own kind' in the mirror than worry about any other fish. I think it's an ego thing. In the past I have also added some weighed down plastic pipes in the tank, just to change the scape and therefore change the territories. They are easy to put in and take out after a couple of days and it doesn't involve moving any rocks/corals etc. At times I also find myself shouting at any fish that are looking for trouble, but I don't think that actually works
Their beautiful fish, and as you say do a great job in the tank. I’ve got a larger one in the S650 as well.The golden “coris” wrasse is one of my favorites. It destroys all of the bad worms you don’t want with extreme prejudice.
Ouch. I bet that hurt. Someday's you're the fly, and other day's you're the windowscreen ! Glad to hear you're ok though.So all of you who have been paying attention will know I’m a keen golfer. I play badly 4 times a week off 15.5 handicap so 16.
Well yesterday I played at one of the courses of which Im a member, and I was about 5 under par gross (golfers will understand but it means I was playing very well!) and playing the best round for years.
Then I got hit in the forehead by a tee shot from another hole..... Fortunately for me it bounced on the ground first before it hit me, and even more fortunately by a few inches, it hit my forehead rather than an eye or something
Funny thing is, it didnt actually hurt that much, it swelled up but a cold compress helped immensely, but no real pain. I must have a hard head or something!
The young chap involved was devastated, to the point I actually felt sorry for him and won’t be setting ‘my wolves’ on him. He was speaking to my father and the guys playing with me and was mortified, and left the course with us.
It sometimes takes something like this to make you think of what might have happened but for the ‘grace of god‘ if you like. This is what’s so shocking. An inch or so either way and both our lives could have changed very differently, especially mine..........
After the incident I was waiting to be picked up in a buggy, stood behind a big oak tree, and the group behind us hit another shot, and it landed between my feet. No shout. You know when it’s not your day!!!
So any golfers reading this, if you hit a wayward shot, shout Four very loudly......
Lol!Ouch. I bet that hurt. Someday's you're the fly, and other day's you're the windowscreen ! Glad to hear you're ok though.
I'm well known for sending the odd drive onto another fairway. It's just my natural slice in action. It's probably best if you wear a crash helmet to play golf in the future.
Yes that’s basically what I do, well I put them on rocks at the bottom area of the tank and same in the S650Alveopora, Gonipora are pretty much the same. It seems to me that the advice for these is usually to have them on the sand, as in your picture (I'm not criticizing by the way). With my Gonipora I placed it in a gap on what was basically a little 'wall' on the rockface. It has since encrusted onto the rock and has grown really well.
Yes, that about sums it up and what happened, it’s very sad like you say.It's sad isn't it, the way they go. They become listless, hide away, stop eating but it can take weeks for them to pass.
