Nice photo Op!

This fish has been in my tank for a week or so (?). I was told he is a cigar wrasse. I can find no info on a fish that looks like him so I can't really vouch for the name. I told my LFS I want a wrasse and he has been trying to get in one that I will take (I don't like sixlines, and won't own...

Chromis are a fish that forms harems, with a "main" male. If your harem leader is one of the fish that did not make it and you have 3 females left, that could be the reason for their behavior.

My LFS guy was telling me about Exit last week. He used it for flatworms, which it did take care of. He also showed me a big fat bristleworm (dead) that he said he assumed was caused by the Exit. Mind you, I didn't look for his inverts, but I know he would have told me if it had harmed them. He...

Yeah, and we think it's safer to drink at home! I think the cat is darling.

Choctaw, Scot and German. I don't think I fit anywhere.

I think you may be thinking of the decorator crab, who steals coral peices and adorns his shell. They are different than the porcelains. I haven't had a porcelain, but I'm sure someone will be along..

Efishnsea, is that a "soft" feather duster? I have some that look like that and they build on the rocks. Great photos! Makes you wonder what else happens in there when we're not looking.

That's amazing. Now I know what to feed the zoos!

I have had a sally for about 9 months. She was initially very much an algae grazer, but now has almost tripled in size and finds mysis also to her liking. I really have no doubt that if she felt underfed, she wouldn't hesitate to take things into her own claws. The one thing that does surprize...

Very nice, you should be proud!
