crumbled the coraline up and spread over the tank. because of the current in the tank most of wound up behind the rocks. I stuck some in cracks on the rocks though. It's starting to spread pretty good some of the green coraline on the rocks i bought from monfort is spreading also.

Thanks to all for the comments. I have re-arranged the rocks 4 or 5 times and each time I find myself thinking I don't like something just right. I'm satisfied with it now so I most likely won't move them again.

dude I think you got my cap. Did you switch the bags around. darn it. You win again. Side note that xenia will cover that rock it is on with a quickness so be aware once it starts its hard to stop.

Man those zoo's turned a really nice color in your tank. We should try to get pictures of mine , yours and adams (his is mixed with greens) ,but they are all the same it would be interesting to see what they look like compared here before to long.

Watch the jumper. I am hesitant to try one again since the last one disappeared.

I thought he jumped into my overflow and went down the pipes but he's not in the pipes or in the sump and can't find a dried up fish on the floor so I guess he's hiding now.

Had the skunk cleaner for a day and it already molted, kinda scared me to see that shell laying on the bottow behind a rock.

What kind of lighting are you running?  I tried a covered top, found out not a good idea with my tank.

Living so close to the LFS is not good.

New tank inhabitants.

I'm pretty much done with fish, I'm having them get me a yellow watchman and I am going to be full up on fish I do believe.


6 Line Wrasse


Tail Spot Blenny


The LFS called this a Leopard Goby but It doesn't match what I looked up on the net. Took a pic in the bag cause I figured he'd go hide under or behind a rock and he did.

Do believe you are correct. Orange spotted shrimp goby is what I'm thinking.
