Vicki, he's not really getting around it but he's posting his pics to Photobucket and merely linking to it. Hope that helps.

Re: Aquaman's Nano Adventure

Thanks Al, for clearing it up!
Sasquach, thanks as well!

Re: Aquaman's Nano Adventure

Again, BEAUTIFUL!!! What a cool fish! Now, photobucket? How do you do it and not have a link. I know, probably an easy question. But....

Re: Aquaman's Nano Adventure

On the photobucket site, click on the IMG code which copies the image, then paste here.

Awesome, awesome photos!! Looks like there has been some redecorating going on. I like the new aquascaping. Your corals seem THRILLED to be in your tank!

Re: Aquaman's Nano Adventure

Wow....very nice Matt ! Fantastic tank ! I love to see a redo on a tank, especially those before and after shots. There's not much more satisfying than bringing a sad ailing tank back to life ! Nice Job !

and.......I soo want a pair of those high fin red banded gobies !!! Very pretty little fish !



OH....what is that purplish fish in the top pic...swimming across the top of the tank ?

Re: Aquaman's Nano Adventure

It looks like a clown goby of some weird color morph.


Great looking tank, Matt. My favorites are the goby/shrimp pair and the dendro.

Re: Aquaman's Nano Adventure

Thanks all!

That little fish is a Citron Goby, who has been through more than you can imagine! The little guy is about 4 years old and I orginally got him from a fish store that had a fire and i got him for free. He was in a tank with soot on the surface with no water movement for 3 days before I got him. He has been head first in a powerhead twice, and has made the move from California to Kansas. He is a tough sucker! I nicknamed him leopard from the black spots that he has developed over time. Not sure what caused them but I call them age spots. LOL

Matt

Re: Aquaman's Nano Adventure

If that's a clown goby that is one SERIOUSLY small tang.
