Yeah I didn't see much point in moving the goby and I didn't want to overly stress him out if the likelihood is that he'll end up back in the overflow. I do miss seeing him though, however feeding the tank is a bit of a nightmare (algae growth).
Ya that's why I asked for that thread in the buy/sell section to be removed. Note to self make sure fish is still alive before posting it for sale

That's the plan, I'm just waiting to get one.

On the plus side I tested the water (I was a bit worried about were the water chemistry was at since the blenny died) however everything seems pretty much cycled (using cured live rock definitely helped) ammonia is at 0 nitrite is at 0 and nitrate is at 5. Not bad considering it was set up last friday night

Looks neat. What colour of frogfish would you hope for? I love the red ones. I don't know if they hold the red though since diet and habitat plays a role in that.

The mesh can be gotten at Petland - I have the same for a 20g from when I was keeping some salamanders.

Oh and I like how you think that I have a plan.

Yes I'm hoping for a red one, but I'll have to wait and see what becomes available.

BTW I know you have plans....a little bit of jack hammering here and there.....poop pipe goes in here...see you have lots of building plans Just so you know people are still reading your thread
