It is time and I try to work on it as I can. It's hard, I don't have your energy level.
 Peppermint got himself stuck in the trap, haha, that didn't take very long at all. He had a pretty dour expression of sulking this morning (who knew that shrimp could be so expressive ) He is now sumped, and the trap reset for now the cleaner shrimp...

Very nice looking Tony. I'm a little worried of the gaping mouth, had a RBTA have that happen and never recovered. Also had the same problem with little basterd shrimps, when your trying to nurse feed something they do take advantage
 I now have had a RBTA for 9 months and never really target feed it because of where it decided to settle in and seems to be thriving and growing - go figure  Keep us posted.

Hey Tony, I've got a flame hawk who's developed a taste for peppermint shrimp if you want to get revenge.

I need to clean the glass before I can post a new picture but so far, so good.
The 40g has a feed mode for the wavemaker and so combined with no-shrimp-stealing-the-food, it's now eating. Yay! It's lost a fair bit of biomass though (it's smaller than when I first got it). I should have moved it into this tank a lot sooner. The only thing is the 40g is really far too small to house 2 (never mind 3) carpets so I'm probably setting myself up for all kinds of flames once I post a picture of how badly overcrowded it is in there.

I promise not to flame you, but I am ready and willing to help relieve that overcrowding issue!

Ah, Tony. We all have our dirty little reef secrets (i.e. Regal Tang in a 55G...what?), so who are we to judge? Besides, you have that monster tank on the go.
I'm glad to hear it's eating, though. I think my carpet has lost some biomass as well, but it's also now eating more readily. The damn clown likes to yank the pieces of shrimp out of its tentacles and drop it away from the anemone, though. Where's the love in that? *sigh* Danny, are you looking to get rid of that Flame Hawk? Been wanting one for a while
