I Went to CBAY today and they were closed.


I forgot CBAY was closed on Monday. So I then ventured down the street and went to Atlantic Aquarium. I picked up a few snails, a White Sand Sifting Star and my first fish, a yellow Tang. The Yellow Tangs are on sale for a great price.

After acclimating the new arrivals, I fed a piece of Nori soaked in Garlic to the New Tang. He ate all of it in one sitting. He hid behind a few rocks for about an hour, then he came out and started exploring his new home.

My son has named him Michael.

I've never heard of Atlantic Aquarium either. Do they have a good selection of fish, corals, clams, etc?

Welcome, EngerG60!

Go about 4 miles past CAP Bay and they are on the right hand side of the road. They are in the center of an L shaped complex.

Correct.

Is it Atlantic or Atlantis? I guess I could look at my debit card receipt.

Either way. Atlantic(s) is an ok shop. Be very careful, some of their selection doesn't look very healthy. The tank that housed the Yellow Tangs looked well kept. All of the Yellow Tangs were very active and they looked pretty healthy.

Frankie, as my son calls him, eats like a pig. I think I will feed him every other day instead or every day. I soaked a 2x2" piece of Nori in and he ate it in no time flat again.

I took another trip to CBAY today and I picked up a Yellow Engineer Goby and a Pistol Shrimp. Floated them then attempted to introduce them together but they wen their seperate ways. I have not seen the Pistol Shrimp since I introduced him. The Yellow Goby hides behind the Live rock and does not come out much. I will give him a few days to get used to his new home.

Ohhh, I also picked up 2 frags. I picked up some Polyps and a Mushroom Frag. CBAY has a really nice selection of Frags for a really good price also.

The first step on the road to recovery is admitting that you have a problem...(J/K) .

I have to admit this reefkeeping thing is the only think I've ever done, where I can spend $$$$$ in a relatively short time period, and have no "Buyer's Remorse." What is happening to me?!?

I think I may need help too !!!!

God know what you mean. Everytime I walk into a LFS I end up spending $$$$$ and I only have 2 fish and 2 corals.
