Well incase you haven't heard Jeremiah passed away:

http://www.thereeftank.com/forums/f6...ry-119251.html

I have not thougt about what fish newfish i will add, I put so much thought and research in finding the pygmy possum wrasse, i don't know what i will do now. Seeing as i work with children, I'm thinking of a clown (sadly for the Nemo factor) but i would also like to teach them that there is so much more out there.

Perhaps in a week or two i will start to think about replacing Jeremiah......who will always hold a special place in my heart as my first fish

Not all of them are from me

The orange one is an "ORA Orange pylop, green body digi"

The purple cap is a "Idaho Grape"

The Green one is one of the ones from jrpdriver and,..Umm,.. uhhhh,... Shoot. I don't remember what it is Monti of some type - cofusia?

I was really sorry to hear about Jeremiah, but a clown wouldn't be bad,.. Even if you will have to hear "Nemo!" all the time I have a couple in my tank - there interesting fish.

OK, Haven't update for a few weeks. Here's the run down. My tank has been in crisis mode and I'm trying to bring it back to a healthy eutopia. with teh nitrate spike that i had I lost both my fish and one sexy shrimp. My pom pom is still alive and well and one sexy shrimp is still doing it's sexy thing. the only coral that have been effected are my rics, they don't look so good, i'm doing my best to nurse them back to health.

in other news, my green mushrooms that have been in my tank for nearly it's enitre existence have finially split. I have had two greem shroom for about 10 mos now and they have not split........until last week, suddenly in a matter of two days one of them split into three. go figure.

Looks like I may not be able to go much longer without adding a new fish, the tank is starting to get over run by pods agian and I don't what happen to them last time to happen agian.

I'll post pics soon.

We picked up some new 2 part for Reg to dose. Also, we picked up some test kits for Reg to keep at work so she doesn't have to worry about bringing the ones from home in. Oh, and we got a new Flo, cause her's gave out. I'm also looking to fabricate a little fan mount for her system. I think temperature variations may have as much, if not more, to do with her recent problems than the small nitrate spike she saw.

And yah, sexy shrimp doing its sexy thing is def. funny.

Well I sapped some quick pics. I'm going to try nd take more on Saturday when I usually have more time. I just got a cyano outbreak on the top rock, don't know what that's about, but I'm going to do a water change and test on Saturday.



It's really starting to look like a reef. I'll take more pics of each coral on Saturday, I got a couple new ones.

But for now, they are gone.
