Boxing Day Sale
 

Hope to see some of you today at Big Al's.

I will probably go out around 13:00 to brave the traffic and crowds.

Will also be moving my refugium this morning with the help of my brother.

Gee... sounds like a to do list.

I was at Big Als today at around 1:00 although as I have never met you before and there were so many people I wouldnt have seen you. Did you buy anything?

I bought a six line wrasse, brine shrmp, and a new net. BIG SPENDER

I purchsed a friend for my clownfish after his other friend made a jump.
I also purchased a 32 oz size of brine shrimp.....I got food for the next year!

I was going to buy another friend for my clown fish as well after the last one took a trip down my overflow. Decided not to as I was concerned that they might fight or territory.

How are you two clowns doing Jon?

I popped in for a bucket o' salt and some food. Still looks like that SW dept is on its last legs - I guess this is its normal state?? Shabby corals, terminal-looking fishes... yuck. :?

Hope you guys did OK there, I couldn't stay long.

Happy Boxing Day, BTW! :D

I picked up Coral Beauty and some frozen food.

Gee Alan, according to my last post you should have been impressed with the way that BA has improved their setup. :lol:

For some reason or another they were cycling 4 of their tanks and had to cram all the fish into the others. You get that many fish in a tank and there is bound to be some conflict.

As it is my Coral Beauty is trying to stay away from my Yellow Tang. I may have to do some landscaping as all the fish seem to perfer just one side of the tank. :?

BA was interesting yesterday. I dont think I have ever seen there store look that bad. You would think they would want to create a postive image with the large amount of customers they will have over the next week.

Oh while I was there yesterday I asked a sales clerk about the clowns in the 2000+ gallon Angel aquarium. She said they were added to directly feed the angels but if they go eaten the didnt care. Whether you believe this to be good or bad I guess is up to you. I dont really think it matters all the much although I do feel sorry for the clowns, chances are they would have met a similar fate in the ocean.

Just some thoughts.

Angels eat clowns :?: :?: I somehow don't think so. I don't know of predatory Angels. However, as always I could be wrong. :D

Actually ..... not the angels, but there was some kind of grouper in there as well. Or was it a grouper? Darn, I do not remember. A grouper, or a snapper, or something like that.

At any rate, I beleive the clowns eventually did fulfill a feeder role (it may not have been intended as such). I'm a bit saddened by that .... :(

It is too bad the tank is still cloudy, but it will be a neat display when it clears up. I wish I could keep angels like that! Absolutely gorgeous fish.

They had some little queens .... sigh ... only $160 or so ..... man, I wish I had a big ol' fish tank just for fish.

I do wish they'd stop bringing in mandarins, if they're not going to feed/care for them properly while in the store. :x
