Brought my water to this guy who's a distributor to lfs he's got by far a lot more fish and knowledge he showed me a website of fish I can get then showed me what he has he had some really awesome clownfish that were like 100 dollars I passed on them but I got a pair and I know a lot of people have done it and a lot wouldn't do it but if they get big he said he will trade me or I will upgrade my tank depending on how this one goes for me he seemed like a good guy and knowledgeable if I didn't trust what he said I wouldn't of spent the money I did so hopefully all goes well here's some pictures.

Love b/w clowns! 2 clowns in a 10 seems pretty cramped, so just make sure you keep up on the weekly PWCs and keep the parameters in check. Good luck with your new tank!!

Clowns are goofy. Some are chill, others are spazzy and never stay still.
I don't know what that green stuff is. I don't have anything green. My clowns like mysis, brine, flake, new life spectrum pellets, rods food. But none of that is green. Sorry, IDK.
 
Yeah he put it in his tank I guess it dosent add to to the nitrates and it will get them eating I'm gonna buy pellets soon
 
I got a big package of frozen brine shrimp at my lfs for my clowns for $3. They went bazerk!
 
Is the ones that become alive when they thaw? And I have brine flakes

Hmm. Well, it was very clearly tiny shrimp, but I didn't notice them being alive. Lol. I don't think they were.

I'm thinking blood worms lol. My bad. My clowns ate that green stuff very well so that's a good sign definitely gonna do the weekly water change to keep them happy and the parameters in tact. The guy at the store I went to gave me a packet on keeping reefs and reef fish ill take pictures as well as saying on top of what I have I could possibly do a goby I forgot the name of it but it cleans the sand he said its a better cleaner then then snails. The packet had a page for nitrates nitrites ph ammonia etc

Haha. I was confused. I was really excited about feeding time so I could notice whether they came alive or not. I had already pictured myself having a brine shrimp tank. :)

That's awesome. Sounds like you have a good lfs! Also, gobies are really awesome.

I wouldn't. My blenny sometimes nips at the Nassarius, but I think that's cuz he thinks their tubes are bloodworms. Lol He's a little crazy about bloodworms. :) He hasn't actually hurt any of them yet.
