Was at J&l yesterday and picked up a few new additions.

Bought a small orchid dotty. (whos made friends with my hi-fin goby)
A tail spot blenny,
Emerald crab to help out with my bubbles.

In another post I asked about the Powder Brown tang. After much deliberation and reserch, (and the fact they were the only tang J&L had) I decided to get a small one.

Not even 15 min after going into the display he was out swimming with the clowns and sixline. Being worked over by the cleane shrimp,(ich free so far)And eating like crazy! Absolutly gorgeous fish. Will keep ya'll updated on his progress..

Also grabbed some PE mysis, and frozen formula 2

As for the Vertex, Im impressed. Its producing about 2 cups of skim a week (that will increase with the new additions). Fairly quiet, easy to clean, and I like the drain port feature.

Will post pix when I get em.

Its pretty small right now. About 1" but it's making the odd appearence. Staying on one side of the tank and only seems scared of the clown fish, the other fish dont scare it. He's swimming in and out of holes in the rock I didnt even know were there.

Being only 1 inch probably means it was tanked rasied which is awesome. Mine is certainly a rock dweller, it excavates a little hidey hole under some LR to sleep in. If it gets spooked it will dash to any number of known holes in the rock and then it's head pokes out somewhere to see what is going on.

Mine does not like crabs, if it sees a hermit outside it's main escape it gets all flashy and does the "move along" dance. Hermit is just oblivious though.

Tank raised tangs very cool. Nice to see some picture's when he decides no one will
eat him. Hope he becomes the star attraction
