More Coral!


I am slowly, but surely stocking up on coral. I just got this zoo colony at the same place I bought my fish, and I paid $19 for it. I have seen similar colonies go for thirty or forty bucks!

First Fish!!! - Zebra Bar Goby aka: Dartfish


Some name huh? Whatever you call her...she's good lookin'. I even got her for 10% off in Appleton. I thought she might not eat or come out for a week, but she has already made a home underneath some rocks, and she's eating like crazy. So far so good.

Where did I go?


I know (herb), it's been a long time since my last post...been kinda busy. I am a wedding photographer and this is wedding season. I have also seen the birth of my 2nd girl Riley Jean, and you can see her too on the photo blog. The tank is good...real good. I have had some temperature wars, but it's all ironed out now. I keep a small fan blowing on the tank from about 3 feet away. The fan combined with the AC in the office keeps the tank about 80 on the nose...sweet. My diatoms are gone and the glowing green and white algaes are here. I think I also have a touch of cyano...we'll see how that goes. Here is the livestock count so far:

1 Margarita Snall
2 Misc Sail
2 Asterea Snails
1 Turbo Grazer
1 Reg Hermit Crab
1 Small Hermit in a long shell
1 Blue Legged Hermit
2 Skunk Cleaner Shrimp

Green Star Polyp
Green Candy Cane Lps
Red Lobophylia Lps
Finger Leather
Ricordia Florida
Green Mushroom
Brown Xenia

I think that is it for now.
