The catalina goby died...i found him sticking out of a button polyp one morning. but the unarmed perchlet is a very peacefull fish. he's scared of my peppermint shrimp, so there is no worries about him eating anything besides pods.

the only plans for more fish is a pair of clowns and probably a six-line wrasse.
i'm going to be getting 1 grade A picasso from Woodstock and they have some good looking mis-bar's and one of the lfs' here so 1 of them also.

i'm going to wait to get the wrasse at least a month after getting the second clown. about half the rock in my display is from the old setup, so its pretty well established. hopefully i wont have any problems. i might start skimming a little wetter.

thats amazing! I was just wondering what kind of zoanthids these too are. I think I have the pinkish ones.

beautiful picts, looks great, thanks for sharing

jbob · 11-02-2008, 05:52 PM

i bought them as just "pink zoas". they just recently started getting the green mouths. and the green ones i've had for a while. the colony was huge, then a nudi outbreak took out 90% of them. they're looking good now.

jbob · 11-16-2008, 02:07 PM

update...one of the lfs had a pair of ORA grade b picasso's, so i got the smaller better looking of the two. i'm still going to be getting a grade a from doni so that'll be my pair. i also picked up some new zoa's and a pair of cheap mushrooms from a different lfs. thanks for all the nice words everyone. heres some more pics....

i just moved these so they're closed up still.

jbob · 11-16-2008, 02:09 PM

sorry some of the pics are blurry

jbob · 11-23-2008, 10:36 AM

a little update...well really a question. my picasso is sleeping in the top corner of the tank next to the feeding ring. i dont mind it, he can sleep where he wants, i just dont want him to get startled and jump. how can i get him to sleep somewhere safer?

jbob · 11-23-2008, 10:48 AM

here is some new pics. the picasso "Aro"...ora backwards...is gettings alot darker. i also made a "seat" for my clam, it kept wanting to move in the sand. i know they like to be in rocks, just didnt have a place to put it before. it seems to like its new home

jbob · 12-16-2008, 07:28 PM

update....tank is doing good. i'm down to 3 chromis now. they keep jumping. i've moved a couple things around, no major changes.

SeahorseBT · 12-16-2008, 07:34 PM

very nice tank. when you say jumping u mean they jumped out and died? got the second clown yet?

plecosword · 12-16-2008, 09:57 PM

I like your overflow set up, did you cut the glass yourself? I think I say a baby anemone on the first page.
