Dough
Dough: yellow tail damsel fish (Chrysiptera parasema) in front of my long tentacle Hydnophora (Hydnophora pilosa) SPS
yellow tail damsel a very attractive small schooling fish, almost impossible to kill in the aquarium and will become territorial. if added, add last so to minimize fighting. often sold as a"start up cycle fish" due to there hardy nature and ability to overcome unstable water quality
Hydnophora pilosa- a SPS coral that has a shaggy appearance due to its long tentacles. Very adaptive coral but prefers strong lighting and good water movement. very aggressive toward other corals usually in brown or a bluish green. not often sold in the fish'coral trade

My babe porcupine puffer. (Diodon holacanthus)
Porcupine like to land on rock or bottom of the tank to rest after food time or when they feel like to.
It has its own personality, mine like to look into my camera and smile hehe.
it can grow up to 20"+ in the wild, but mostly to 15" in aquarium.
favorite food:snails, shrimp, clam, squid...etc,
I don't know if all of them do this, but mine will jet water to my face when I play "catch the food" with it.

1-Orange Firefish-Nemateleotris Magnifica
1-Six-line wrasse-Pseudocheilinus hexataenia

tank is 5 months young. I run a Filstar Rena XP4 as a chemical scrub that contains, 1 standard Chemi-Pure 1 pack Purigen and Fluval Phos-X (ferric oxide). I also have a CPR-BakPak2, 1 Koralia nano, 1 Koralia 1, titanium grounding probe. For lighting I use a Current SunDial 4x24 watt T5. No heater at the moment, tank stays between 77F-79.8F.
I dose daily with Kent Iodide, 8 drops/day, Kent calcium every 3 days, Strontium & Moly once a week (very small dose)
Food soaked in vitamins/garlic twice a week (very small amounts), Rotifers 1-2x's/week (small amounts), Phytoplankton 2x's/week(small amounts)
10 gallon H20 change once a month
well after listing the critters- holy CRAP-the collection grows bigger than I thought! I have not added anything in a couple of weeks and have already been fragging the Zoas, Shrooms and Rics.
