IF it were me i would take it to the pet store i have found that when i have had a fish for a long time and it is bigger and better looking the the usual fish they get in the customers who shop there buy them up in a heart beat and if he is a good size some times you can get a nice amount for them or trade for some corals or fish or credit.

i would rather sell it on craigslst to some one that i wll quiz on their tank, and decide if they can have it or not. the LFS may not ask what size tank, and just say here you go, and the tang goes to another 55g

if im desprate ill do that though.

PICTUUUURERERESS ?

new yellow polyps.

new green monster! last night he went crazy during feeding time, he is atleast 1 foot long, with all legs sporead out. he also got stung by me sand nem a few times, the stupid thng...

New Froggy.

Lttle Fuge.

RANDOMS!

I Know i said would reduce the pics, but i look forward to this every weekend, lol. sorry guys, maybe ill just make a slide show, so i dont take up so much room, and it doesnt take an hour to load

This species has been documented to arch up in "sleeping caves" of captive fishes and drop down on unsuspecting meals. If you use this species, keep an eye on it, and a count on your piscine livestock.

thanks, lol. ui already knew they were fish eaters, the LFS dude told me that lol... i assumed that they couldnt eat my fish, but ill keep an eye on it. if t gets near any fish it'll meet my baster just like the tang

Thanks on the Pics

Did the tank just sit still for you to take his pic? I cannot seem to get one of mine, before he whizzes off.

yungreefer2410 · 02-10-2009, 06:37 PM

the outside of my tank is fairly clean ...

io leave the inside dirty, until it gets to the point of coraline coming, i dont want my snails to starve, also im fixing to order alot of snails from bluezoo along with my tang

the top of his back looks like there is some white. could be just scaring from the last bout of ick. or could just be the light.

new reefer 03 · 02-11-2009, 01:11 AM

idk it could be ich, but i havent sene it on them, and i stare at them lol. i dont think it is, or they would be snowcassos for a day
