Well it is a better camera than the two point and shoots I use. Still amazing what you can do with a point and shoot digital these days. I really love the tank though.

Awesomer tank, Scott!

(I say awesomer because I said awesome the last time I saw pics of it and it is more awesome now

)

Dentoid · 05-16-2008, 10:41 PM

Thanks Mark!

You have the best looking tank!! Love the video. You said a long time ago that you feed a lot and I believe you now. When all that food hit the tank I said "Wow!". Those guys went nuts, it was fun!

Dentoid · 05-17-2008, 09:57 PM

Thanks Greg! I feed that much once daily. Can you say nitrates!

Actually, they are now under 20ppm so I'm not too concerned. I read that clams and Elegance corals need, or can tolerate, a little nitrate.

On my way home from Terry's today I stopped by one of our LFSs and picked-up two cleaner shrimps and a Fromia star. I carefully acclimated them and the minute I put them in the tank, my Mystery wrasse was in hot pursuit and ate one of the shrimps! I was afraid they were too small!

Here's the smug little SOB!

Craig Manoukian · 05-17-2008, 10:13 PM

No more Mysery on their dietary preferences, eh? What was the cost of that meal and is cleaner shrimp #2 safe?

Bummer for sure Scott!

Dentoid · 05-17-2008, 10:18 PM

It was filet mignon at $30.00. I fear the other one is not safe! I knew of their dietary preferences, but the wrasse has not bothered my other shrimps. In fact, I have seen my bigger shrimp cleaning him. These were just too small! I could kick myself.

Craig Manoukian · 05-17-2008, 10:26 PM

Yoikes, $30 is more than I paid for a rib eye steak last night at a dinner theater! Too bad they were to small!

AQTCJAK · 05-17-2008, 10:26 PM

Scott that sucks. However I will tell you this Vicki had a large Coral Banded shrimo her Mystery made lunch of it really quick so my suggestion would be no more shrimp

Dentoid · 05-17-2008, 10:28 PM

I hear ya!

Craig Manoukian · 05-17-2008, 10:34 PM

Oh, the Mystery taste buds have been turned on and I agree all shrimp are on the watch list.

OMG!! Caught in the act! Sorry you lost a shrimp but that's an awesome photo!

vdituri · 05-18-2008, 01:11 AM

A mystery wrasse catfish? New species discovered at Scotts!

If it comes from above, it must be food.

That sucks.

mywivestank · 05-18-2008, 10:05 AM

Bummer Scott

Boy, after I moved that sump yesterday I became sick as a dog, I feel bad today. I will talk to you guys later.

kathywithbirds · 05-18-2008, 10:09 AM

Oh that sucks. My 6-line ate a couple too before I got a nice big CBS. He thinks twice now.
