Doug, I have a potentially silly question.. I noticed that you don't have much sand, like what, a sprinkling? Where does your wrasse sleep??? I guess the rockwork, but I always thought they liked sleeping in the sand.

Not a silly question at all. There is sand in the tank....the flow just keeps it pushed to the back....so the front of the tank is bare bottom and the back has an inch or two of sand. Fairy wrasses and mystery wrasses both "spin" cocoons and sleep in the rocks so sand isnt a requirement.

I just thought I would share a couple pics of my newest additions....4, 1 1/2"-2" BAs. They are having issues with my overflow atm, but other than that, they settled right in and ate(voraciously,I might add) an hour after release. They are the smallest fish in the tank atm, so they have stayed tightly schooled....which is cool. Not the best pics but you get the idea.

They are supposed to not like intense light so they have been milling around the center part of the tank....which is under the massive light swallowing "12" wide center brace....fine by me ....front and center

Heres some show and tell

New maxima...I think....its just wee...like 2"
