Looking pretty lively in there! There's nothing like watching a busy reef. The interactions are so cool. You glue all your smaller rocks down or is your coris still making your life fun?

Thanks! The bubble has tripled in size in the last few months, and always looks like this when I feed. Haven't direct fed in ages...:mrgreen:

I sold the coris, he flipped everything and killed quite a few corals. :twised:

Funny, since adding the wrasses, my lone anthia is trying to hang out with them and my big fish are swimming around more.

I also just added 2 mini maxi nems, an orange, red green one and a black one with a green skirt. The black one moved under a rock in the shade and seems quite content there.

Oh dear, were you there alone or with the little girl? I would have loved to grab a couple more but the Scott's wrasse wasn't cheap....:lol:

What did you end up grabbing?

I will try to get a pic but it's tucked itself under a rock further back in the tank.

Some more pics of the new kids.

Scotts fairy wrasse, still hiding but is coming out to eat, which is good.

tail is red like the body with out that beautiful strip.
hard call though.
i would lean towards Mccoskers flasher
but that just my quick google search on both.

Thanks Matt, I came up with the same thing. Doesn't matter, he's awesome and is not shy at all! He's been flashing at my royal gramma quite a bit today...:lol:

The Lubbock was different from the others with the blue marking down his back which is why I wanted him. He flashes at his reflection in the glass....weirdo!
