Even I'm feeling a little uncomfortable here. Nicely done folks!

Anybody ever consider the pervosity of Lance's username itself? I umm...haven't.

Pervosity or perversity? I didn't start it, Leah did. It was an innocent post about the light. They're the perverts!

Oh sure when guilty, point the finger at the innocent one.

This has been an awesome read. I laughed almost the whole 5 hours (this includes me being ADHD and going off on tangent threads as well as posting in them) It's a great setup and I'm glad it has turned out well for you... one thing I noticed that wasn't said anywhere in here is you had 12 Chromis now there is only 7 and when you say what's in the tank a few times it went down and never anything about them... are they not important because you had 12? Or are you trying to get that beagle to choke on a fish bone so you keep trying and just hope nobody notices?
(P.S. now I'm going to have to spend a day over there at some point to look at your guys' tanks)

Thanks for the compliments.

As for the Chromis: They are Damselfish and like other damsels they tend to not play well. The more dominant individuals pick on the weaker ones until you're down to a few. My twelve went down to five in about 7 months. The remaining five squabble a little but that's about it. An interesting thing: Once the school got down to five, they began spawning like clock work. I'm thinking the school is down to a harem-like group and that's why the aggressiveness is gone.

That makes me rethink the group I want to get... I was thinking of getting 20 of them... but if they are just going to rip each other to shreds... oh well

They don't rip each other up so much as harass constantly. But yeah, they're nasty little buggers.

P.S. Feel free to visit when you're in town. Doors always open to a fellow reefer.
