Hey Tony, I've got a flame hawk who's developed a taste for peppermint shrimp if you want to get revenge.:biggrin:
|
Any update ? Hope its good.

I need to clean the glass before I can post a new picture but so far, so good.
The 40g has a feed mode for the wavemaker and so combined with no-shrimp-stealing-the-food, it's now eating. Yay! It's lost a fair bit of biomass though (it's smaller than when I first got it). I should have moved it into this tank a lot sooner. The only thing is the 40g is really far too small to house 2 (never mind 3) carpets so I'm probably setting myself up for all kinds of flames once I post a picture of how badly overcrowded it is in there. :redface: |
I promise not to flame you, but I am ready and willing to help relieve that overcrowding issue! :wink:

Ah, Tony. We all have our dirty little reef secrets (i.e. Regal Tang in a 55G...what?), so who are we to judge? Besides, you have that monster tank on the go.
I'm glad to hear it's eating, though. I think my carpet has lost some biomass as well, but it's also now eating more readily. The damn clown likes to yank the pieces of shrimp out of its tentacles and drop it away from the anemone, though. Where's the love in that? *sigh* Danny, are you looking to get rid of that Flame Hawk? Been wanting one for a while :D |

Pictures and movies from today..
Blue: Comparing to the older pictures I see it's not only lost biomass, it's lost a fair amount of colour as well. :( It only "sort of" eats - it ate once this week and then hasn't again since (maybe just not hungry). A long, long way to go, before I think this guy is out of the woods. :( http://i305.photobucket.com/albums/n...uegigantea.jpg http://i305.photobucket.com/albums/n...tos/th_034.jpg FWIW, here's the purple. http://i305.photobucket.com/albums/n...legigantea.jpg http://i305.photobucket.com/albums/n...tos/th_033.jpg And now, let the real shame fest begin .. :redface: Here are pictures of the seriously overcrowded 40g carpet tank. Compare the green to what it looked like in 2006 (as seen in Drew's clownfish picture thread here).. http://i305.photobucket.com/albums/n...hotos/40g1.jpg http://i305.photobucket.com/albums/n...hotos/40g2.jpg http://i305.photobucket.com/albums/n...hotos/40g3.jpg http://i305.photobucket.com/albums/n...hotos/40g4.jpg http://i305.photobucket.com/albums/n...hotos/40g5.jpg http://i305.photobucket.com/albums/n...hotos/40g6.jpg |
It might be a bit crowded but the carpets look happy and they don't seem to be bothering eachother. I wouldn't worry about it.
|
Tony, I hope it makes it through - I know how much you love these. :turn-l:
