We have a Kole Yellow Eye tang AKA Blink (My avatar) He likes to hide in the rocks so sometimes all you see is his bright yellow eye staring out at you.
A one clawed emerald crab AKA Ernie
An emerald Crab with the biggest claws you ever saw AKA Big Boy
A West Indian Top snail AKA Jaun Pedro Sanchez (we thought he was a Mexican turbo at first) It is 4" across.
A Firefish Goby AKA Obe One Genoby (he has a light saber on his head and is as fast as a Jedi)
A Yellow Watman Goby AKA Gobysaurus (when he sits on his fin he looks like a dinosaur)

We have some other fish, crabs, and snails that have not been named yet.

[B]where did you buy him? [/B][/QUOTE]

Utah. I live in utah now. Moved here about a month ago now. They seem to be readily available here as two fish stores had them. I've never seen them in ohio. Or even offered online??? He is pretty freakin sweet though. Finally starting to realize i'm the keeper of the food and comes towards my hand.

What a shock.

My kids say name him "Seurat" (you know.. the guy that did the paintings with lots of "dots"...)

Pronounced like.... "Sir~ott"

Seurat.. knew a lot.. about.. dots!... I like it!

(Here is one of his famous paintings...)

I saw that original painting in the Winter Palace in Russia. It's actually very large. Up close you can't make out much. I am also a big fan of pointalism.

I really like that!!!!! it just might have to be his name!

nrstype 10/28/2007 01:46 PM

AW.... I knew my kids were onto something.... they said..

'Mommy... that fish looks like that "sir~ott" guys paintings up close!'

Hey.. hand it to a 7 & 10 Yr old!

COOL! That will make them happy for the day. AND.. they may expect another pic of him with an official name (if you choose it.. ) they'd be bushy tailed like a peacock!:beer:

Glad you liked the suggestion.

FYI....Wish they had a grand name for my big FW 12" Red Devil Cichlid.... all they could come up when he was a 3" Juvie was 'WORMY'... I think YOU got the better end of their continuing education.

Gotta run... "WORMY" is clinking the tin cup up against the tank again... waiting to be fed! .... (He's a pig of a tank buster.) :lol:
