Wow Laurie I didn't realize you had this many tanks going looking good. I love the cow fish & the tangs too.

So I guess we can call Dougster the shroom dealer

Thanks Mike, I've always love powder blues, but they can be tricky. I was happy to get him from Bob knowing that he was healthy and doing well to begin with

He does deal some pretty sweet shrooms He also has been wonderful in helping my broke a$$ by hooking me up with salt, very grateful for this since I do a 60g water change per week.

GRRRRRRRRRR WTH!!!!!!!!

I just fed my tanks and I noticed that my orange spot blenny (same one in the pic. I took yesterday) wasn't out front and center gobbling up food like usual. I'm thinking to my self that that's strange and of course my first thought is "Oh sh*t he jumped" so I started to frantically search all around the tank and finally I see him in the tank (on the cheato and mangrove pod side) dead at the bottom His body looked perfectly fine and in tact and he was eating well yesterday. At a total loss as to why he died, I had him for 4 months and while he spent most of that time in the reef tank, he had been in the 80g for about 2 weeks and did seem fine in there. I seriously don't get it Also pretty sure that type of blenny gets a lot bigger (he was about 3" but i think they get to about 5") so I doubt it was from old age or anything like that

Sorry to hear about your Blenn Laurie.

You have some great looking tanks! Love the mushrooms and the new fish you purchased. I don't think I have seen a chocolate mimic tang before...wow nice fish.

Thanks, ya it's not to often you see adult chocolate mimic tangs, juvi colours are more yellow. I always think of them as chocolate mimic tangs but they are also called Mimic Lemon Peel Tang (Acanthurus pyroferus).



I was talking to Doug and the only thing we could think of was that maybe the blenny somehow got stung by the fu man chu and that's what could of killed it. However I didn't see any marks on it's body and I would of thought a lionfish sting would leave a mark of some sort or some swelling or something

Damn. Sad to hear this.

Thanks Lance, wish I knew what happened to him, really sucked finding my blenny dead all of a sudden.
