Latest pics 55g FOWLR (for now)

[browniebuck]

Here are the latest pictures of my 55g. Included are my ever present Eibli angel (as I have said before, he is in nearly every picture that I have taken of my tank), my foxface (will hopefully be upgrading by the end of summer for him, as I know that he will outgrow the 55), my sandsifting starfish (new addition, sand bed was getting nasty so we decided to add him, he is pretty interesting), other members of my cleaning crew (turbos about as big as my wife's hand), keyhole angel (the 2 angels are friends now, after a little game of tag when the keyhole was first introduced), and our maroon clown (a little goofy looking...he has a Little Nicky (Adam Sandler) shovel face thing going where his top and bottom lip are pushed a little to the side of each other).

Brownie we aren't too far apart, I am just across the river from East Liverpool. What are your fave LFS?

 

[browniebuck]

We have a ***** that is really nice with a few really knowledgeable salespeople. I really like Wet Pets Plus in North Canton. I am also really fond of Salty Critter in Vermillion.

fish look sick? :scared: :scared:

 

[browniebuck]

fish are fine...the only one that I am even remotely concerned with from the pictures is the foxface (color), but that was taken only a day after introducing him to the tank. He is now back to yellow nearly all of the time (save when the lights go on). Everyone else has been in there for at least a month with no problems at all.
My camera isn't the greatest (Olympus Camedia...about 4 or 5 years old) and I can't figure out how to turn off the flash, which leaves different reflections off of the glass and off of the fish...but I assure you, everyone is doing very well!!!

what do you mean "no rock"? or was this sarcasm???
I don't have much in the way of base rock as I am more partial to the branch type pieces as they offer more hiding places for my little critters (porcelain crabs, hermits, small yellowtail damsel, and green chromis). Plus, the branch pieces seem to provide more caves when you overlap them or stack them.

When I had my FOWLER w/ a foxface he would change color from pale, to dark, to bright all the time. Usually when lights were out and just turned on he would be brown. So maybe he is alright. It does look like he may have some spots on him :notsure:

 

[browniebuck]

the spots on his face are just the way that the black and white are (I have looked at him from the time we got him until now and the spots are the same), on the tail, is probably calcium on the glass (a cheap WalMart magnet cleaner came with the tank and has scratched the inside of the glass, which makes it impossible to clean)
