azfishgal,
I took your advice and posted the pic in the "newbie" thread.
Nemo, that clown is one of the best I have ever seen, his colors are fantastic.

well, i dicided that my next addition was going to be a cleaner shrimp, but one of my parents are working lated tonight and the other went out of town. and i hate to buy things on sunday because you only have that day to observe. then you get caught up in school.

My shrimp was pretty shy for several days, but then he got used to things and now comes running anytime I come close to the tank, thinking I'm going to feed him. They LOVE mysis shrimp. One of mine ate it right out of the turkey baster.

Tank's coming along great Nemo. Keep posting pics. Can I ask why you decided to downgrade? Not that it matters, looks like a great transfer.

first off, i didn't like the fact that my old tank was sitting on a desk. everytime i would hear a big noise i would check if it was my tank. Second, i hated my rockwork and no matter how i changed it, it would still have almost no coral space and it was very dirty in hard to reach places. this tank, while doing the rockwork, i made sure there were caves for fish to swim through, there are almost no hard to reach place in cleaning and now i need less equitment to clog the back.( i did not want to drill my tank). and my favorite one, i can buy a frag and it will look huge! :hilarious

See the hole, that is the Xenias new home in a day.

Full tank

Full tank showing everything that moved. for the first time, we were having coral space problems. had to give away the leather stubs, kenya tree baby, big leather, and move my zoo across the tank.

and my cleaner shrimp. Bad shots, but my Baby brother was clinging to my arm for my camera.


Hope you enjoy!!!
i am pleased with the macros my camera took. it was just being a good boy today! lol

That's looking really nice for sure!! I LOVE the zoas on the rock in the bottom right of your tank. Rockwork looks great too. Did you end up getting that new/transferred tank haze to the water like I did? Just wondering...can't see in the pics that you did. Good job!!
