Hi guys, been awhile since I've been around, been really busy with work and personal life and havent be able to post any updates.

Added quite a few things over the past month though, so thought I might post some pics. Let me know what you think.

Acropora sp. Blue Toruosa/Caulastrea sp. - Liveaquaria/ATM (omg)

Montipora capricornis orange/red, also Montipora digitata (german blue polyp) Liveaquaria, also notice my rose anemone, dissapeared after its epic battle with my powerhead, reappeared a month later looking like this. The yellow striped maroon clown found it within minutes, he was in quarantine for 6 weeks without it, and it was like long lost friends meeting for the first time in years. Granted it is now 1/20th the size it was when they knew each other in the past, but that didnt seem to bother him in the least.

Hope you enjoyed the pics, still havent got off my butt and purchased a decent digital camera, hopefully soon.

I have two frags of the Montipora digitata - german blue polyp variety, and would like to trade it if anyone is interested. You can see both frags in the pic above.

I have been patient adding the fish, only 4 in tank with room for possibly 1 more (fairy wrasse of some variety when I see one I like). This week I added the Candy Hogfish and a Lawnmower Blennie both from GVA, couldnt wait any longer for the Orange spot Blennie, and the Lawnmower is much more hardy and hard working anyway.

Oh, forgot to take a picture of the latest mantis, caught him today, about 3/4 inch long and purple/green.

Got up this morning and was doing my normal 20-30 minutes stare at the tank routine, while just the t-5's are on, and saw him out hunting. Was one of the neatest things i've ever seen, he spotted a small white crab and was stalking him and being ever-so-cautious while doing so. Anyway, I have him in a cup ready for a new home if anyone wants him, but you will have to come get him tomorrow, im not going to let this one die. If no one wants it im going to post on the mantis board and find him a home, these animals are just too damn cool. No charge for him, but please only take him if plan on keeping him healthy and happy for many years.
