Oops. I thought the maximum size for the engineer goby was listed as 1". After reading your post I checked again and it was actually listed as 1'. I guess I won't be getting an engineer goby.

Ive seen them come in at 2". If they stayed this size they would be a great fish to have in the tank. But at adult size Engineer gobies can topple rocks that arent placed right on the bottom.

More pictures!!

I also added a new Wrasse. Turns out to be a Cebu Pylei Wrasse so that was a great score!

Thanks. Its definatly coming around but im not happy with the colors or coral health yet. Im sure its just a matter of time before everything settles in.

The wrasse has some stress spots on him as its only been 2 days in the tank. So far I really like him but I have read they can get fairly boisterous with the tank mates. Though I do still want to add a couple female mcCoskers, and a pair of Rhomboids. I would like this tank to have quiet a few flasher & Fairy Wrasses.

Wow, everything is looking great.
Flasher and Fairy Wrasses are a great choice.
How are your Tunzes working out for you after you sold the Vortechs?

Finally starting to see some color coming back to my sps. I have lost the Coral Master Super Grape Mille this week. Luckly I know where there is another if I decide to replace it.

Nice work on bringing some color back... real bummer about the super grape tho! Greg was over the other day and let me know that what I thought was a super grape (only after the transfer has it gotten enough light and gained some colour) is in fact NOT his super grape
