Newest Addition: Sixline Wrasse. it rocks!!
 

last night i purchased a new addition for my tank, a small sixline wrasse (about 1-1.5"). so far it has dealt a solid blow to the brown flatworm population, not to mention it's one cute little bugger!

also a semi-full tank shot update. im breaking in my tunze 9002 skimmer and the only place it will fit right now it at the front. it's ugly, but it's serving a purpose. i'd rather have the skimmer working full capacity instead of taking out my old one and waiting a week or so for the new one to break in.

please keep in mind that this is after ive been away for about 18 days.

the xenia has gone crazy. i now have a xenia forest that my clownfish loves to swim through.

Both my clowns host in my xenia. I want a striped mushroom.

sixlines are awesome, pretty cool how they make themselves a little web to sleepin in at night, thought mine was dead the first time i saw that.


what tank is that?

it's a 24 gallon aquapod. i really dig it!

i havent seen the wrasse make a web yet, i can never find him at night. i think it sleeps with the gramma in the rockwork.

Cameron- if you're ever on the north shore i could probably hook you up with a striped mushroom. just noticed that one of them has just sprouted two new ones.

My Sixline wrasse was a great little guy....until he decided to check out the world on the other side of the glass......

had that twice 2... :( they sure are jumpers

Im just waiting for a 4 line wrasse to come in now....see how he does.....my last one of them got eaten by an anemone.....

Very cute! I think my next resident will have to be a sixline :) Where did you get him in Van?

Puff, how long till you noticed a decrease in your flatworm population?

overnight! im serious!

i woke up in the morning and was like, "whoa...wtf? where did all the flatworms go?"

i thought i was just imagining things, but this morning i sat and watched it for a while. it kept picking at the rocks. upon closer inspection he was tearing flatworms off the rock!!

I got it at J&L. they had just got some in and this one was the smallest. there was a few other VERY nice specimens, but they were bigger than i was looking for.

Thanks! I think we'll have to pick one up on friday there then. (I know it's not likely to be of the same temperment but I'm reeeallly hoping for one who will eat FWs!)
