Theyre not exactly maales yet either, but juveniles. If you had several of them the second most dominant one will become male.
Side note....
The Koi in our pond have been having a bit more fun than we figured. Tonight, we noticed at least 2 and maybe 3 new baby fish. Actually, they aren’t even babies anymore. They are almost the size of a gold fish you would buy from the pet store. Our pond is seriously overstocked now. We are either going to have to find someone with a pond who wants some fish or I am going to have to dig a MUCH bigger pond. Before lone, I won’t have to mow in the back yard. I will just need scuba gear.
lol this made me crack up
You could always sell the koi fry for some tank/pond upgrades
The only thing more expensve than a hapy wife, is an unhappy one.

What little bit of hair algae I had was gone in a couple days and everyone happy. Then, I noticed some bubble algae and took the recomendation to add some emerald crab so on Thursday night I added three. Within 24 hours all the bublle algae was gone. Emeralds seem to be happy as well (take a look at my thread about my "Dancing Emerald Crab). He is quickly becoming my fav.
Todays water sampe (haven't done a PWC in a week) is as follows:
Temp 79
Sal 1.025
PH 8
Am 0
Nitrite 0
Nitrate 10
Calcium 460
Hardness 143.2 kh
Phosphates 0
Today, my wife and I are going to look closely at fish and coral to get a better plan on stocking. We will most likely pick up a new fish and I thing I will get a couple of fags to get started. I am think a Toadstool Mushroom Leather and some Candy Cane. Would love a Torch but I think I should wait a bit on that.
Huge thanks to everyone here for getting me this far in just over a month. You guys have taught me a ton.
rdnelson99 said:Here is the best pic of one coral I picked up yesterday. It has been in the tank about 14 hours when this shot was taken. The LFS told me what it is but I asked so many questions I pushed it out of my head. LOL I posted asking for an ID and one suggested Star Polyp but said it should have a purple base if it were. Any ideas?
Looks good to me! When is your next addition planned?
