there so small i cant flipp'n get the camera to focus in the low light...hopefully i can get some pictures in the morning if they make it through the night (i noticed my gobies and crabs were going nuts)
Honestly i didn't do anything to make or help them mate, just fed them garlic (as always)...kept good water quality for my corals...
wow im so happy...lol...its sick...but i really am
I took around 30 photos... im trying to find a few that the little guys are in focus... there seriously so small....it was funny watching them swim..cause they swim just like there parents...just there almost a spec in the water.... man there seemed to be hundreds of them.... i'd really like to know where the parents laid the eggs....i was wondering why one of them wouldn't move from its area in the tank.... now i know why!

Yea.. Wish you had a hang on quarantine... to put them in.... Also.. when you feed garlic.. how do you do it.. chopped up fresh garlic cloves or are you buying supplements?

I use a product called : Garlic extreme, i basicly just get a small dish, put around 3 pinchs of flake food in...then put 2 drops of the garlic extreme in...mix it...let it sit for 5 minutes...then i feed my tank... normally everything is gone within a matter of minutes.
i wasn't feeding garlic for getting the fish in the mood, i've been feeding just to prevent ich and all those sorts of things....
man...lol...this is so cool
actully while taking photos i got some really cool ones of my decorator crab... didn't notice it was him until i really looked, i thought it was my rock work.

here are some pictures of my decorator crab that i oddly got.
hes so cool. his name is Crab-Nelious.
i wanted to name him : cornelious, but my friend said since he is a crab it must be crabnelious. and so it was.
