bauder1986 11-20-2009 11:11 PM

Dude, Im jealous lol. Sweet fish! Hey when are you gonna get coral?

karazy 11-20-2009 11:24 PM

i do actualy have some coral at the moment, i just havent really announced it.
ive got some zoa frags and a few heads of hammer coral. they are all on the sand bed at the moment because i have a sea hare cleaning up some hair algae and i dont want him to knock them off the rocks.

bauder1986 11-20-2009 11:27 PM

oh cool! How are they doing? Pics?

noirsphynx 11-25-2009 03:56 AM

Wow, so tiny and cute!

manaf 11-25-2009 04:31 AM

wow nice moray i thought eels eat shrimp and ur other fish?

BlueAbyss 11-25-2009 04:50 AM

Nice, I don't think I've ever seen one of these guys in a nano before. I'm considering one (a Centropyge) for my 29 when I get it going next year.

Delphinus 11-25-2009 07:18 AM

Wow that is a tiny frog. LOL! Awesome score!

Leah 11-25-2009 11:05 AM

He is oh so very, very tiny is he eating and what does he eat? CUTE!

karazy 11-25-2009 01:37 PM

yeah, he's awesome.

manaf to answer your question yes they are piscivores, but they are so small that they really cant fit many fish into their mouths.

leah, he isnt eating yet as far as i know, bu to get him eating at least something i might try gut loaded ghost shrimp or gut loaded juvenile guppies

karazy 11-27-2009 03:51 AM

well it's happened.

i have joined the dark side...i got 1/2 an inch of acropora.

so this is now (buy 1/2 an inch) a mixed tank

Naked Wookie 12-16-2009 10:00 PM
