kinda an interesting story Lance.......I have no idea where it came from.....I didnt even know I had it......when I was tearing the tank down to move it is when I found the fish.....all the rock was out and we were in the process of netting out all the fish when we noticed it.....I was like, "WTF is that!..I didnt add that fish.....what the hell kinda fish is that fish?" .....only thing I can think of is it came in on either a coral(highly unlikely, I thought) or in some rock.......I started trying to think when the last time I added any rock to the display and it was at least a year before I moved....this fish spent a year in my display without me seeing it.....freakin amazing, I thought....Mikey(who helped me move the tank) later found a link to what kind of fish it was.....I will go back in my journal here and find it.......anyway, in then died the following day when the tank crashed......kinda a crappy way for this fish that survived a ride home in a plastic bag with no water, then managed to live in my tank for a year without me seeing it, to die

oh, there is algae in there:wink:......little bit o volonia here and there....and some kind of caulerpa algae growing in the eggcrate at the top of the overflow......you just need to be selective about composition with your pictures so as to not get any algae in the shot:wink:

Lol why do you think most of my shots are of the exact same angles? :mrgreen: Maybe if I start to embrace the algae and secretly love it... it will perish. Won't Murphy's Law or something like that come into effect?
