Looking good justin! How do you get your sleeper goby to come out in the open? I used to have 2, but one day one vanished mysteriously. And the other one has been hiding ever since, only coming out to eat when I drop in food. It's not bullying cuz at the moment it's the only fish in my 75.

Such a shame about your s&s, he was such a looker!

Yeah Im still upset about him...Mostly I think because it was so sudden and I have absolutely no idea still what happened. No obvious disease and nothing in the water I could test. Really a mystery still to me.

My Goby swims all the time throughout the tank. The water really is never clear though because he is always stirring the sand! Hes a very active fish actually and will even steal food from the porcupine Puffers mouth

Well I just took my last fish (for now) out of QT and put them in the display...4 Chalk Bass. I have always wanted schooling fish that get along and these are them! I really like these little guys. So far though they are just hiding and scared of the big fish. Hopefully all of them will make it and get to their 3" adult size...Yeah not so big but fast and I think they will be able to hold their own with the puffers.

So with these guys, Im getting close to full even with the big skimmer and refugium...

Porcupine Puffer
Green Spotted Puffer
Orange Lyretail Anthias
Flame Angel
4 Chalk Bass
Golden Head Sleeper Goby
Yellow Tail Damsel
Long Nose Butterfly
Long Nose Hawkkfish
Flasher Wrasse

Its funny how things work though, before loosing Crush, the tank was to be only him, the porcupine and my eel. Big change in plans when he was not in the picture anymore and a lot of smaller fish. Its kind of nice actually. I like having all the movement and color!

Any ideas of what might fit in nicely??? Im thinking another Goby and a Clown because in my years of fishkeeping, I have still never owned a clown!
