I will clean glass for home cooked food, cookies, or beer.

The bridge looks great Carmen... will look even more awesome with some big bright SPS colonies. Nice snag on the Purple Tang too... which tank did you take him from?

Careful Josh...I may take you up on that!
Ya, think I will stick a couple SPS in there on top to try it out...we'll see how it goes this time around...but it will never be SPS dominant!
Took the purple from the Anemone tank...biggest and fattest of the bunch! And ATTITUDE!

Thanks Laurier, I am excited too to see it all full! It's always nicer to see corals rather than ROCK! ...will take awhile...may need to pull off some extra shifts at RC just to pay for it all!

2 New additions...picked up a Red-Striped Skunk Goby this week and another Flame Angel last week from RC. Just couldn't resist! I miss my flame angel so much and the Skunk's are such a neat looking fish and I've never seen one before.
Brought home the skunk goby, acclimated him, put him in and he INSTANTLY JUMPED! Jumped right into the overflow..!!!!!! Then he proceeded to try jumping out of there and landed on the little 1/2" slit between the overflow and tank (hard to describe) that runs the full depth of the overflow and just as I go to scoop him off, he wriggles down the slit! NOW WHAT? I can't even shine a light down there it's so narrow. Tried to scoop him out with wire, sticks, you name it! Eventually gave up. Checked on it one last time before bed only to find the little dude back in the overflow! Managed to scare him back to the top where I scooped him into the tank. AND.......wouldn't you know it.....he tried jumping again! I managed to corral him to the bottom of the tank where he vanished under the rocks hiding with the gudgeon pair. What an ordeal!
So the little guy showed up for feeding 24 hours later. He has been out and about on occasion and hides out with the gudgeons, which I thought was abit weird. They are similar shape and I thought they might chase eachother but not so. He is about 4" long and almost eel like. Quite an active fish. I will hold my breath as to how long this little guy stays put without jumping again...may not be so lucky next time! Hoping the 30" keeps him satisfied and with less reason to "skim the top"!




Pucker up....SMOOCH.... Flame is such a character and is doing fantastic! Immediately upfront and center!

Sounds like a great time was had by all!

Flame looks like she had some work done on her lips, sporting the Angelina look. Nice!
