pics man. gotta put up pic's when you buy something new. i got me a few fish for my 10g about 2 weeks ago. and then 2 more today. i will have to get some pic's up and an update but for now i have:
2 clowns
1 blue w/yellow tail damsel- he will be gone soon(just my starter fish)
7 snails(5 free-bees and 2 i bought)
thats it so far. but i want to see some pics. its all your fault(or atleast thats what i tell myself) that i started my 10g. so i want to see your progress.

[peef]

I like your aquascape alot. Very ummmm I guess "flowing" would be the word.

 

[patrick8929]

very nice. i lost some shrimp like a year back and i never found them anywhere. i looked in the tank and outside of the tank and never found any traces of them. 3 of them just went missing in 1 day

 

[patrick8929]

thanks man! and i have no clue about the shrimp oh well....

 

[1990jpyj]

how is that cheto doing in your tank? i was thinking about doing something like that until i have the time to mod the aquaclear. i just dont want it to get out of control in the tank

 

[patrick8929]

i have some in my HOB filter also i just put it in therefor color. it really doesnt grow that fast. atleast not for me it doesnt. it is doing good not getting out of control and if it does just take it out or trim it.

 

[whisk]

chaeto ball ftw! looks like a small patch of green bubble algae as well. I have a small bit of that in my tank too. So far it has remained under control.

 

[patrick8929]

yea thats on my new rock nothing special just something to look at

there wasnt anything really in the tank to eat them. at the time i only had 2 clowns and a firefish. so i never could figure it out. i looked everywhere, filters, CC, rocks. nowhere to be found.

 

[rotarymagic]

he may have been eaten by cuc if he was molting...
the cuc members sometimes think they're dead when they're molting and eat them.
do you have a light over the HOB to light the chaeto?

 

[patrick8929]

well it could have been the CUC that got mine all i have is snails. and no i do not have a light over the HOB i will soon tho.

 

[1990jpyj]

well at the time i lost mine the only CUC i had was 1 turbo snail if i remember correctly.
