Everything is so awesome! I am really like the Anthias!

Your 20g looks so different, it looks great! It is weird seeing the 29g next to the rimless tank, lol.

I really like the Tomini too!

OOPS, I posted before the other pics went up!

I really like the look of the 90g, it looks like it is super active! I am a big fan of the fish in there too. I still really like that Green Ric, it looks fantastic!

WOW that tank is amazing. What is that red thing? Is that an eel?

 

[carey]

Thanks guys. the only thing I think that looks like an eel is the engineer goby. They are mostly wrasses in the 90g so not sure anything in there is eel like. lol

But thanks for looking guys, wish my camera was up to snuff but a point and shoot nikon is the best I can do.

I find that out of the three tangs I have only the tomini has a permanent territory. The other fish pretty much switch up their spots. Not sure if thats normal or not but one day pootie will be in the back under this one rock or the anthias could be there. lol

A neat thing I've discovered, and I bet it just isn't me, how the tangs show their aggression. They will swipe at the other fish with their tail and kinda nudge them while swimming backwards and shaking their tails. I have seen it with every fish I have added so it must be a "tang" thing lol

I'll tell ya, nothing looks cooler than when all three tangs are out in the front swimming around in a group, makes me so glad I have the tank. It's all worth it when I sit in front and watch it and even from across the room it just seems so Epic. lol

My tangs do this to. They swim backwards and their hook comes out. It's kinda fun to watch even though it isn't good. Lol

That's the engineer goby.

 

[Nu-Nu the eel]

Its an engineer goby

Lol we said that at the same time. Props

 

[Sniperhank]

That doesn't look anything like the one listed on liveaquaria. That must be an extreme close up, it looks huge!

They get pretty big - I can't remember how big Carey's is right now.

 

[TLTGF]

I gotcha! The one on LA is a juvenile, whereas Carey's already looks like an adult.

 

[carey]

Mine is only about 6-8 inches so far. he is huge, but he's a big softie! lol

Very last pic. What is that ^.

Engineer goby...i wish i could fit one in my 30!!!!

 

[carey]

They are awesome. He's in the middle of changing now still, he was so cute and tiny when i got him, he grew so fast! I'm not sure which tank he is going in, either the 90g or the 125g cause I think the 60g will be too small. I hate having him in the 20g now, but he really seems to be comfortable in there.

 

[Gboy66]

Wow carey thanks for the pics!!!! That is seriously a present to all who follow your thread

 

[don_chuwish]

So the Engineer hasn't undermined any rocks yet I take it? Or are your rocks set on the bottom?

- D

PS - every time I see this thread title I think "LAST? ... yeah right."

 

[redsea]

Carey, have you ever counted how many fish in total you have in your house?

Today I saw the Cichlid who's name is "ugly" in your other 125g, lol. I was so excited,
