Snapped another couple of pictures tonight. My wife is out so what better thing to do than to fiddle around with fish stuff. I hate sticking my hand in the tank cause I'm paranoid of my body's natural oils going into the tank. It also causes the skimmer's foam column to go down to nothing, so I try not to stick my hands in my tank unless necessary. So picture taking it was.

One of my fastest growing colonies - Bluish Pinkish Milli. Just for size reference, the larger clam is 4 - 5" and the Twinspot Hog fish swimming under it is about 4-5 inches.


Pink Pocci


Green Slimer


My 2 yellow tangs and mystery wrasse


My clownfish. They sort of host in the Green Star Polyps and the flower pot right behind it. The flower pot isn't showing polyp extension because my halides had shut off already by the time I took this picture. Once the halides go off, the flower pot goes to sleep.


Thanks for looking.

Looks great Dez!

That Pocci is looking very healthy. They are one coral that i can never seem to keep happy

Lobsterboy should reconize that one

Simon,

I didn't realize that you originally got that pocci from lobsterboy. It's grown some, then it fell into my hammer while I was gone for 12 days. And now it's back on the growth path It turned a lot deeper pink in my tank hey?

Thanks for the comments Leah. I'm kind of afraid to tell you how many fish I have in there in fear that I'll get flamed. I believe I have 26 fish in there. I have about 320 gallon in water volume and I'm a stickler for water regular water changes to keep the water quality up. I feed about 4 times a day if I can to keep the health of the fish. Nobody squabbles in there except that the regal chases the majestic once in a while, but never picks on him or bites him.

3 x scissortail bar gobies
2 x Chromis
2 x Yellow Tang
Mystery Wrasse
McKosker's Flasher wrasse
Multicolored Wrasse
Solorensis Wrasse
Twin Spot Hog Fish
Canary Wrasse
Majestic angel
Flame Angel
Coral Beauty
3 x False Percula Clownfish
Falco Hawkfish
Fathead Anthias
Mandarin Goby
2 x Royal Gramma
Regal Tang
Leopard Wrasse

Looking great Dez ! Is the Fathead Anthias & Leopard wrasse eating now ? Loved my Fathead when I had one & I seem to really like Leopard wrasse's now, thinking of adding one with my Mystery.
