Reef Chili

Brian,

If you want to try some reef chili, let me know. I have 3 containers and I'd send you one if you want it.

Let me know.

Pat,

Thank you very much. Package arrived today. I'll have to use it tomorrow to load some new pics of the replacement tang I got.

Thanks again!

Thanks. I actually got it from Liveaquaria. He's got a great personality already and has actually gotten the Anthias in the tank to school more and out in the current more. It's only been a few hours, but it doesn't bother anyone. Already follows me around the tank. Hasn't eaten yet but has picked at the algae on the snail shells and rock.

I have the Rebel XT for a camera. Just set it at action and snapped some pics. I have no skills.

Brian you got my fish. I always wish I got a powder blue instead the blue tang I have. This is my incentive for another tank because my tank isn't big enough to handle 2 tangs.

I'm hoping to have good luck with it. They say they're tough but they also said that about the White Cheek I had. He was doing great till a few weeks ago when I had that die off of the chicken liver sponge. I just hope he starts eating soon. I ordered some live Gracilara(sp) algae that should be here on Tuesday so I'll keep my fingers crossed.

Good luck and don't believe everything you hear all the time about what is hard to keep. I had fire fish and chromis that should be simple and I can't keep them but everything else is fine.

I got to get me another fish. I REALLY want a male swallowtail angel. I just don't see them available anywhere.

Here's some pictures I took the past few days. The one of the female swallowtail has one of those baby snails by it's tail.

Nice pictures Pat! Especially of the swallowtail angel I'm starting to get the itch to add another pair of fish to my tank as well. My clowns are going nuts trying to decide between two rocks as their "hosting" site

Brett and I found an awesome new store. It's about an hour's drive from us, but well worth the trip. They are a wholesaler that is open to the public. Today we picked up three small rocks with X-mas tree worms on them. One rock has one tube, one rock has two tubes and the third rock has three tubes. We also picked up a purple sea spray and a red sea spray. The x-mas worms have not come completely out as yet but they are peeking out. The sea sprays have polyps out already. The rock seems to be Keys rock and one has a rock anemone on it and a couple have some neat looking pale pink algae growing on it. We also picked up some snails and red leg hermits at a tremendous price. One of the red legs has some really cool looking stuff growing on it's shell. We asked for really big ones in hopes that Harley and Neo would give them a chance at survival.

I'll take some pics tomorrow and post them.

Being they are white led moonlights, that's probably why. Do you have a dimmer for them, or can they follow a "moon" cycle?

Thanks Dennis. Can't wait to get the lights back. I guess we're just lucky we had those pc's sitting here from day 1.
