No I don't. I have tried them several times over the years and just haven't been able to keep them in any of my tanks.

I haven't had the greatest success with the SPS coarls. Water parameters just aren't good enough for them to thrive. Will try and get some pictures of the ones that have done well in the tank.

One of the Blennies favorite resting places..on top of one of the penductors...

cool

HOW DO YOU FEED THEM ALL!!!!

 

[hefner413]

yeah, I was wondering about this also - you must have a lot of things set up to be done automatically somehow. I tend to spend a ton of time on my 55 gal and 180 gal. I can't imagine what it would be like trying to manage your tank!

Goodwin, your fish look great and I love the Anthias hiding.

Any other time, they are all out and about. It's only when I start taking pictures do they head for the caves. I'm thinking that it is the flash that scares them. Kind of like my cat, lightning outside and my cats heads for under the bed.........

It takes me about 30 to 45 minutes to feed all of the tanks. Most tanks I can put the pumps in a feeding mode since I generally feed frozen and try not to over feed. Here are a couple of photos of the Blennie when the pumps are off.

That's hilarious. What would happen if your blenny stuck his head in there as you turned the pump back on?

I just received a great buy from SWF, I found in the Eye It & Buy It section on this site. A White Freckled Surgeon (Acanthurus maculiceps). These pictures were taken while he is still in the bag acclimating in the tank.
