Easy come easy go........



.......(just for Tony ).......I finished my last day at my old daycare job this past friday......and much to my surprise......they gave me a $200.00 gift card to AI which I promptly spent today on fish and fish food

Got another yasha goby (really hope he finds the candy cane pistol and pairs up with it) and I made a window mesh screen/egg create lid to keep him in (no way he's jumping out)





and I got a Kuiteri wrasse (mine is a bit paler then the pic below, but so far seems to be settling in well) I will take a pic of mine when I get around to cleaning the tank glass.

Why not just get a glass top? Glass will block way less light than the egg-crate with mesh on top.

Ditto
If this was a FW tank, I might say different, but I'd rather have mesh and evaporation any day with SW.
Besides, the mesh and eggcrate doesn't block much more light than glass. The walls of the squares are very thin, so there's very little reflection. And glass does block a lot of the spectrum.
The eggcrate is only reflecting white light.
And ... who likes cleaning up salt creep?

That wrasse is freaking awesome! But... um... if I were you, I'd readjust your little "feeding" lid there. It looks like theres some open space? IME, fish will find a hole no matter how small or oddly placed. JMO, I've had some very determined fish over the years

Oh and I can't believe your job gave you a GC for a fish store! How awesome is that?! I like to think my friends and family know me pretty well but I still get spa and clothing store GCs for christmas and birthdays
