It's a secret until I know if I can get him or not. I have all the LFS looking for one and so far I haven't heard back from any I'm so very hopeful though. I have 6 months to find one and hopefully it won't blow too much of my budget.

Oh well......maybe I can tell......it's a Gumdrop Coral Croucher I'm in love with the little cuties. Maybe someone out there knows where I can get one, even if I have to have him shipped here. If that happens then I'll post to see if there's any interest in a group order from wherever I can find him. So what does everyone think....cute or what?

I don't know if its "bad" but when I ran black sand it looked great for the first few months and then it just seemed to loose it's affect and I couldn't keep it clean (pure black). I wouldn't use it again but that's just me.

I reeeeeaaaaally hope it doesn't! I just love the look of it. I suppose even if it does at least it's only in my 10g & not my 90g. That would be a PITA to change out.
