It's my goal to catch him.
If I can get my birdsnest to grow he's going to send me a SPS beginner pack!!!
I would love to say, "my tank is a large "frag" of Murphs tank."

Thanks, I just wish my BTA would get his foot out of the cave and crawl up to that rock he always stretches to. If I knew I wouldn't hurt him I'd pull him off and place him on that rock myself (wish I would have placed him on that rock to begin with.
). But I know that would hurt him, so I may have to just wait for the next time he crawls off that rock and take it out, then it would be easier to pick him up. I just fed him a piece of krill and he ate it right up.

BTW, I now have my new Sailfin in QT.

Is the really orange anthias the one you got online? Or is the pinker one the one you got here? I really like the orange one but they are all beautiful! As is the rest of your tank!

The more orange, and nicer IMO, is from here. Sadly the other female and male I ordered were DOA when they arrived.
So the new female (more pink) and male is from a lfs.
Here are pics of my new Sailfin. (It's hard getting good picks from my QT.)

Even though it shows I need to clean my glass, I think it's a pretty cute picture.

Sometimes I think "this is taking forever" and being patient has not been easy. BUT in looking at my pictures earlier in the year, the tank has definitley come a long ways.

After I add the Sailfin I will get my Yellow Tang, and he will be my last fish. Whew!! Only took 7 months to stalk my tank!

Ok, thanks AZ! Hows your hippo tang and your sleeper goby doing? Did they brake up? Did they move up to the next step? Do you let them go out on dates at night? LOL. How are your other fish, and inverts, and corals doing?

All fish are doing very well, have great color and all seem to get along. The two female Anthias go at it from time to time. Dori still has a crush on the Sleeper Goby.

I have this picture on page 18, but I'll post it again. It's worth posting twice.


The Goby will get tired of her at times and turn around and nip at her, but she doesn't seem to care.
