ya.....um......I dont think so there guys.......oh, and hows the fishing going Sean?



Im finally becoming a little happier about the tank.....algae bloom has been knocked back with a massive CUC and the addition of the yellow and chevron tangs.....the rock isnt looking so bare anymore, thanks to $10 zoa frags and a couple sps frags.......I still havnt aquascaped the anti-pony tank yet but managed to replace the blue assessor, that was in that tank, that I lost in the crash....he seems to be loving the overstuffed, randomly thrown in rock work that he has atm.....Im gonna have to get motivated and get on scaping that tank one of these days.....also a couple new fishies found their way into the big tank......a shrimp type goby of some sort, who made his home right up front where I can actually see him on occasion.....the last goby I had, lived at the back of the tank and I saw him like once every few months(there was a great purchase)......The second new fish is a tail spot blennie(or TSB, as Ive affectionately called him).....LOVE this fish, soooo much character.....

ok so enough rambling and on to the reef porn

No luck fishing yet. Is that trap back at the shop yet? I'll probably move the clams down to the sump today until I get that little bugger out.

one of my fav fish fursure....


I recently went to Kiens and got my "cant loose" stuff back from him...."RP" included.....some of my sps is looking pretty dang good and some is.....well.....not looking so good....I know not to expect too much out of my sps considering I basically restarted the tank just a couple monthes ago, so all in all Im fairly happy that some looks as good as it does......

I kept it in the 150 mixed reef tank. The same tank where over half my SPS collection died and the other half went south . Isn't that crazy?? The red planet just kept trucking along as if nothing was going on. I was starting to suspect that maybe it was the cause of my SPS meltdown
