My lobo likes anything I feed, either frozen mysid, frozen formula one, cyclopeez and even flake food.

Looking Good Amanda

Please post some more SPS shots.

AEALOVESHERGIRLS · #**230** 02/24/2006, 09:00 AM

Will do, however, I only have 3 SPS LOL I just have my Stylophora, porites and an acro.

AEALOVESHERGIRLS · #**231** 02/24/2006, 09:01 AM

I have decided to get rid of my echinopora. Although beautiful, it's just so big and I'd rather cover the rock in SPS.

Amanda,

I appologize for not taking the time to keep up and read each page yet but could you share what type of fish that is in those pictures? The red and white one?

Thanks

Kigs · #**233** 02/24/2006, 12:30 PM

awesome tank

AEALOVESHERGIRLS · #**234** 02/24/2006, 12:30 PM

Rbrice, I believe you are referring to Waterfaller's fish. I believe they are Trimma goies http://www.liveaquaria.com/product/p...fm?pCatId=1968

Someone please correct me if I am wrong!

Amanda

OK update time! I received the PH and rotating return thingy and put them in my tank. I don't like them, so I took them out. The revolving return is WAY too wimpy and the power sweep too bulky and big(I ordered the smallest one). SO, I stuck with my original set up.

Next update, I have received the last shipment of fish for my tank and I'm so happy!!!!! I received a tail spot blenny today, and he has got to be the coolest fish I have ever seen! His eyes just look around everywhere and he is soooo curious! I highly recommend one!!!!!! All of my fish are getting along fantastic and in fact, all hang out with eachother! I have some pics of my complete fish list and you'll see, they all stay right next to eachother and are happy!

All 7 fish

Amanda

!! It's starting to look like another awesome Amanda tank!

Where did you get your most recent fish?

AEALOVESHERGIRLS · #**237** 02/24/2006, 02:49 PM

I got the tail spot from liveaquaria, I was on a waiting list for it. I just love him!

Jordan55 · #**238** 02/24/2006, 03:09 PM

Looking nice AManda! I love the new blenny.

I am thinking of getting a blenny for my SH tank... nor sure if a blenny and goby would stress or out eat the horses though.

Do you like the tail spots colors? Got a side shot of him?

Keep up the good work!

Gobies shouldn't be a problem, but blennies are often considered "too active" for seahorses. IMO, it's iffy for them, especially in a smaller tank, but it is possible. HTH

Looks Awesome Amanda, your tank is only like a month old and it looks like a tank that has been setup and running for a year or two.

AEALOVESHERGIRLS · #**241** 02/24/2006, 04:03 PM

This blenny is not too active. he perches a lot like my YWG. He picks at algae off the sand and rocks. He's just so funny how he's checking everything out.

Jordo, it's hard to describe his color. He's almost a neutral color on his body, then his dorsal fin and tail have red. Here is a shot...

AEALOVESHERGIRLS · #**242** 02/24/2006, 04:08 PM

Good husbandry goes a long way RJ!!!

MaryBebo · #**243** 02/24/2006, 04:45 PM

Your fish look Great !!!! I want a tail spot too

My jaw fish still hasn't came out

He looked healthy, I think he is just in hiding.

AEALOVESHERGIRLS · #**244** 02/24/2006, 04:59 PM

Mary, I'm sure he's just hiding. That's why I didn't get one, all my fish sit right in front in the open.

Jordan55 · #**245** 02/24/2006, 05:13 PM

Awww... I love jawifsh.
Give him a couple days to get settled in. My favortie fish

They are very neat fish Amanda! ( The tail spot). Maybe after the goby and 2 horses get settled, I will get one.

robster · #**246** 02/24/2006, 05:44 PM

My yellow clown goby was missing for 3 days. I assumed he was toast. I looked in the overflow as well as in the filterpad in the sump. I did not see him. On day 4 while cleaning out the overflow (out of water for 5 minutes) I saw him him the corner. I scooped him out assuming he was dead and he flopped a few times. I put him back in the tank last yesterday and he's back to normal. I would check your overflow/sump. I checked mine with a flashlight but must have missed him.

Amanda, where did you get your clams? What is the minimum size you recommend? How about species?

He should venture out in no time! Mine had and awesome personality; he made all his burrows in the front of the tank where he could beg for food.

I sure hope so!!!! He is so pretty, I want to see him

AEALOVESHERGIRLS · #**249** 02/25/2006, 09:49 AM

Good morning everyone! Can I just say, I'd like to ring the neck of the person who invented Paczkis!!!!! It was probably some skinny person. Why do I buy those things!

How is everyone today? My tank is doing awesome, my only complaint is having to physically go in my tank everyday to wipe down the glass of algae because I get too my sun light on it.

How is everyone doing with water changes? I find myself doing them every 4 day sbecause it's sooooooo easy! I have those 2.5 gallon water jugs from the grocery store. I fill one with RO water, mix salt, throw in some air stones for an hour, take an empty 1 gallon jug, fill it 2.5 times in my tank, and dump the fresh water in. It's soooo easy compared to my 75!
I run carbon for about 2 days a week. I love having a little tank! I'm kinda thinking about another! Since I won all that money at the casino, maybe I'll do some tank shopping!!!

Amanda
