nah they stay that size. i think they might be algae eaters or something i dont think theyre particularly beneficial just kind of cool. there are some that will nibble on corals but theyre really rare.

29 looks great. I saw you were thinking about a 6line. Did you ever decide for or against it? (sorry if you mentioned it and i missed it) I have a 6 line in my 29 and it is my second favorite fish. (My favorite is my fuzzy dwarf lion in my 65 hex)
If you do decide to go with the 6 line i think it will be really happy in your tank. It looks like there is a lot of small passage ways in the rocks which my 6 line really loves. As mentioned earlier they are really bold fish. The only time i don't see mine is when the lights first come on he stays hidden just long enough for me to panic and think he is dead trapped under a rock somewhere. In fact that is our morning ritual, me looking for him and him hiding till i freak out, then he just pops up like haha i got you again. He actually like to play with the clowns too which i thought was kind of odd. I have three true percs and all 4 of them take turns chasing each other around likie they are playing tag.

order should come friday or saturday, because i doubt its going to ship out today. im really mostly excited for the corals to come, because the prices at my LFS (wet pets plus) are insane.
nah i still want to get a sixline but i want to get it locally if i can because the one time ive seen it in my LFS it was like $15 and looked great... so i guess im gonna see if i can get them to order me one.
EXCITED! ima go set up my QT...

Is the plate a long or short tenticle? Long tenticles dont fare well in our systems for some reason. I have tried twice and have had no luck. I had my orange plate now for over 8 months and it is doing awesome but its a short tenticle.

Yes meaty... I give mine a chunk of silverside when I feed my anemone. I believe they overnight stuff like fish, anems, shrimp etc... but I dont think they overnight corals.

just went out to the barn to get my QT & supplies. funny how something always goes wrong at the worst possible time.
seems the tank got hit with something, and now has a nice crack going down one side of the glass. my 10 is currently housing my mom's goldfish, and my 15 gallon hex is nowhere to be found.

i cant even go buy a new tank as i spent all my emergency money on this order.

since i didnt order fish, im not too worried about not being able to QT, ive never had any trouble with inverts from SWF carrying ick... so i guess ill just have to pray that everything goes smoothly.
by the way, i got my tracking number from fedex. estimated to arrive before 10.30 am tomorrow. LOVELY
