They hardly had anything when I went today.
A couple cool looking fish, but I cant get any of them since they all need larger tanks.

Look up engineer goby, proabaly what they have. They get large, and they throw sand all over the place digging burrows. You don't, IMO, want to put one in a 10 gallon tank.

Yeah I think thats what there talking about. I saw the black ones with the silver stripes going down it in one of the larger tanks.
I think they had them labled as salt water catfish though haha.
They need a min of 70g tank and can get 12 inches long. I like the colour on them because its a dark black and silver.
Do you have any suggestions on another fish Henry?
I'm back down to two. I was thinking of getting another clown for my lonely guy, but they only have like 3 left and they look like they've been stung a lot(lots of little black dots on them).

Question on xenia.
I noticed that a bump grew on one of the stocks of my xenia, does this mean its branching and growing?
Also that same stock with the bump, seems to be getting closer and closer to the LR (with the bump possitioned towards the LR). Does this mean that the xenia is trying to root itself on the LR? The stocks usually stand vertically untill I noticed the bump on one stock and now that stock is drooping down towards the LR and the others are normal.
Also, my candy canes dont seem to be doing well. A couple of weeks ago the marineland epoxy decided to let go of its hold on the CC and I kept seeing it laying down in the sand or ontop of my suncoral.
Now tissue on one of the branches seems to be declining, and there not as puffy as they usueally were.
What could I do to help it get back to health, other than scrubbing any algae off of it that might grow? Feedings? chemical warfare?

hey kat... i dont know about the candycanes but with the xenia.. you should expect them to move. mine have moved completely off the rock they came on and onto a neighboring rock. they layed down on it and started growing new stalks upward. Your xenia is on the move. If you dont want it to do that then I would move the whole frag to where it cant move onto something else, or put something in the direction it's moving, like eggcrate or some small rubble for it to climb on and you can put it where you want or sell it.
