oh and no its not

LOL. Right now it is. The pistol shrimps went on a rampage and burried half my zoas today. Now the blenny is living with one pistol shrimp, he thinks he's a watchman goby

The anemone is in the 155 to see if it colors up. It was healthy and growing in the 14, but the color faded and I'm trying to figure out whether or not the LFS sold me a dyed nem, wouldn't put it past the guy that sold it to me and if that's the case, we're going to have some words.
AND, my actinic ballast went bad.

BUT, the clam is doing really well

im glad. and i wanna see a pic of the blenny and shrimp!
Trying. They're camera shy tonight. Maybe tomorrow. It's really cool though. At first I panicked, thought the pistol was eating the blenny.

Of course. I'm going to try to rearrange some stuff tomorrow. Need to go on a hunt for the Yasha goby again. She disappears for weeks and then pops her head out for one day. I always things she's dead and then she shows up again.
If the tank isn't a complete mess I'll take some pics, otherwise I'll wait til Thursday (work late Wednesday night).

LOL .. I was in there Friday night, bout 20 snails, 20 hermits, and SPS and an urchin.

So funny, Jeff won't touch an urchin, he thinks they're poisoness.

that's why there were no inverts! U left us with none for the weekend I kept picking through empty shells!!!!

Way to only go when I'm not there! LOL jkk

It was a spur of the moment decision, LOL
Did you make it to Deer Park on Friday like you had wanted to?
You have to go to Manhattan Aquariums if you want some great deals on SPS!
Funny you say that about the empty shells. I actually yelled at them because I got home and a ton of my hermit shells were empty

Uh oh that's not good!
And yes I made it there Saturday. They had a lot of nice acans I was interested in as usual. They also had a pair of tiny orange spotted filefish that were eating frozen! It was hard to pass that one up.
The thing about mh is that I just don't want to go to somebodys house and stuff for a frag. Idk it's just kind of sketchy to me because I'm not an active member I guess.

I was like that at first too about MR, but I haven't had a bad experience. I know a lot of the people on there, so if there's someone on there that you're interested in buying from, shoot me a PM on here and I'll let you know. Stay away from Jaynie, buying or selling, she's the only one that I and many other people have had issues with. And OceanRealm's stuff always dies - he sells a lot of his SPS to Deer Park, so be careful. The thing is, everyone in this hobby is a dork that loves their tank, you probably won't find a murderer on the boards trying to kill off coral and fish lovers, LOL. It's a fairly closed off hobby. Just read their reefer ratings.
But what I was referring to was Manhattan Aquariums, it's a LFS in Manhattan. Look it up, amazing stuff in that place.

Personally, I think the list is too large. I'm on another forum that does a Nano of the Month as well (they also do 30-100G of the month and 100-200 of the month)
Here's how they run it which I think would help here:
People nominate, the person who is being nominated must get 3 nominations. The first 3-5 people to get three nominations and accept them are the ones that get to be voted on for that month. When you nominate, you must post a pic of their tank, or a link to their tank thread. You can only be nominated 3 months in a row, then you must sit out at least one month and you can only win once a year. At the end of the year, there is a tank of the year out of all the winners.
