Wow, Smalls, what a great build thread! I hadn't been checking up for a few weeks, but it definitely looks fantastic! Post some shots of those Maxi minis, eh? I'd love to see 'em!

this was during the 1 hour drip acclimation.. and they have been in the tank a total of 8 hours and are SPLITTING!!!
At first I was worried they were disintigrating but I touched them and both sides are very much alive and sticky!!! so its like 4 for the price of 2 if they all make it! (either they LOVE my tank or are freaked out by it... either way new maxi minis :p )
and my trio of anthias gets here tuesday I believe....

Maldives Lyretails... they are small so I am hoping that they can wait the 1.5 years till we move and buy a house out here and I have a bigger tank... if not then I have someone who can re-home them :( if needed....
One male and 2 females... Im so excited,, I just hope they dont pick on my itty bitty bangaii...and I have a few new snails coming in with them...
