    longhorn cowfish

    happy birthday to me! I stopped at my local fish store today, I mentioned this cute cowfish (restocking my 125 after year and 1/2 of disinterest) My husband suprised me with it this evening. Great guy! He is adjusting well. He is just as social as in the store. He ate a small chunk of shrimp...

    Is it red or green?

    Just got this little guy in a trade for a few frags. The owner insisted it is a rbta. It will be interesting to see how it looks after it settles in. I just added it a few hours ago, will post an update tomorrow. I don't know but it sure looks green to me.

    New baby

    I was given an onyx today. It is just over an inch long, so tiny. I put it in my biocube. I had a yellow watchman goby in there too. The normally sweet, timid goby started going after it. I flipped out and the goby is gone. (in another tank) This clown is so tiny I had to cover the overflow...

    Bubblicious Split

    Today my smallest rbta split. It was suprising because I missed it. I have been able to photograph all my other splits. I guess that is what happens around the holidays, just too busy. I thought I'd share.
