Grr, the shrimp is backordered. I wonder if it will still pair with the yellow watchman goby if not introduced at the same time?

Okay thanks. In that case I'm going to get the snapping shrimp instead of the red banded snapping shrimp. If they will let me.

All three of them are gobies.
The firefish is pretty active and has been out on display all day.
The watchman goby has been pretty active, but likes to sit on the sand or rocks.
The clown goby has hidden all day, but from what I've seen at pet stores they like to sit or hover around rocks or the sand.

These dwarf ceriths are killing my diatoms! It's amazing what they've done in one night.

I added
20 x dwarf ceriths
2 x ceriths
2 x nerites
1 x red legged hermit crab

Well just decided to top this thread off for a while with a couple macro shots and a full tank shot.

I won't be able to afford a lighting upgrade and corals until after april when I pay my taxes.

Not bad macro shots for a cell phone camera on auto settings lol.
