Looks great Carey!!
Hey guys, thanks alot! I appreciate it!
I did not get any new fish the other day, BUT I did get 2 new corals. I got a gorgonian and a hydrophora (spelling is off I know lol). The second one is super hairy and they both look to be doing fine. They both fell off their plugs when I put them in so I had to mand handle them a bit to get them glued back on a plug. lol The hyrdophora one is closed in one small section I believe due to that, but I expect it to open up like the rest of the coral.
Here are the photos!
lol, you know I have no idea really what i want to do with the 60g......
It will have the radion led over it so I was toying with, just thinking "maybe" I would do an SPS tank. I plan on cementing the rocks together so I can make a very tall rockscape as the tank is two feet deep and has a really good footprint. Then I thought I could glue all sorts of sps frags on the rocks going all the way up to the top. It wont look like much at first but if it takes off it will look awesome one day. LOL
Big day today!
Picked up a nice medium - large yellow Tang and a large orange shoulder tang!!! They went into the 180g this evening, had to shut the lights down as the tomini was chasing the poor yellow. :-( The orange shoulder ate like a pig minutes after being added though and no one seemed to bother him so thats a good thing.
Also picked up a HUGE lobo, its red and was only $40, they had a half price sale today only so I just had to get it.
Pictures to follow tomorrow after the lights come on.
Thanks for reading my endless posts guys!
I've been thinking about this tang issue for awhile now....I think I may set up the 25 tall I have and get another tang and qt his butt first.
I've also been thinking I may not have enough hideyholes for this many big fish. I have about 30lbs of base rock which I think i may add to make some more caves. I will lose the open space behind the rock formation though and I really liked that they had a raceway to swim in behind the rocks, but I really dont know what else to do at this point. I am getting really tired of losing these expensive fish not to mention the fact that I am killing them somehow.
Think I am on the right track with my thoughts? Let me know....
