This is my favorite picture so far;



But one question. Is it sitting on the tray in the refrigerator door where you get ice cubes and water?

Wow, that is one fat sexy shrimp lol

My stupid samsung is doing the exact same thing, brand new batteries or not. I'm not too happy with Samsung, our 46" flatscreen has been in shop three times in past 4 months, fu samsung i thought you was cool!

the cannibal eats 3 shrimp pellets a day!

on a MUUUUUUUUUCH happier note......



























MY JBJ AUTO TOP OFF IS HERE!!!!

yes,








INDEED!

so...cam is still at repair shop, problem was identified and is bein fixed.





ATO News:

hooked up the ATO last nite and she werks PERFECTLY. i even managed, somehow, to get the float-switch level dead-on the first time! I watched it fill the tank to the perfect level 2 times yesterday! it was exciting, lol.



anyways, tank already looks happier with the ATO involed. so, i guess i cant say enuf about how cool these are.... if youre thinking of getting one....DO IT! (it's totally werth the $'s, especially if you go on 6 vacations a year like we do, lol.)

YOUR 5.5G is TEH SH!T!

thank you....

OMG......


soooo......

just got back from a 4 day trip to Pismo Beach!!! booyah, son! it was fun!

pissin' off the park rangers, and sand & shopping.....it was a blast.



ATO kept all params PERFECT.....





unfortunately, a couple of my tank inhabitants have become Sexy Snacks.....

wheni get my cam back, ill take pics of the damages a starving sexy can do...

i have sorta the same scape going with 1 piece of LR almost breaching the surface. have you noticed any drawbacks with this?

just FYI mine is 3 pieces of LR fit together like puzzle pieces.


and no, i havent noticed any drawbacks to this tall-tall style of scaping. in fact i have this really cool lokking patch of macro algaes growing at the top, its neat! its also where the clown sleeps @ night.

bad sexies

INDEED!

my cam is FINALLY fixed..... thank u jeebus!

new pix in a minute.....i took a lot.

[Macro's] first.....

"blue's pink chalice"








my GPE's did something wierd while i was gone.....

LATER=MOARPIX....

Very nice! Now if my lens would just get here. Looking at your macro pics I am getting jealous lol. One problem though, you didn't post enough of them .

ooooooohhhhhhh yyaaaaaa!

i finally did something right ya'll!

for the first time in my fishkeeping career, my GF TOLD ME to spend money on a new tank

this is how i accomplished such a feat....

1) get a bunch a cash from atm.
2) take GF for "drive" and wind up @ BestBuy.
3) set her loose in the laptop section. (no holds barred.)
4) buy her everything she needs to be on her super new laptop (myspace) all freakin day...
5) as we walked out, she said i could spend the change on a new tank..(we got $400 in discounts)


LIFE IS GOOD...



always appreciated opy


i gots some moar shots comin.....

'goldust Favia'



chalice



'FFH leptastrea'



ked redd's/ blue velvet's...



my GPE's.... (may need a new name soon)











tANK SHOTS COMIN L8R TONITE...

bought 3 new frags....1 new tank.



YESS!!!!

what am i doing?

So what's the plan?

I never thought of using mike's to cure live rock .

literally just lol'd......still chuckling right now.






hmm.....

simplicity at its finest weets'.


- all sides viewable "curved glass" 10g.....(looks like a 10g picotope )
- 20lbs. of LS, adding 5lbs. more LR, and building a custom cave for the sun corals.
- moving all the livestock/corals from the 5.5g into this tank.
- adding a large female clown for my male to pair w/.
- adding moar sexy's, an udder inverts.
- 4x24w T5HO fixture (soon as i can get a decent deal.)
- long term goal is overall success and a thriving sps / garden tank.....

Nice pico dude, I thought for a second that 10g might be a sump for the pico, I'm sure it will be sweet

Looking at your tank makes me wanna throw a monti frag in my 6 gallon jbj

Good luck with the new setup, have you decided on a color combo to start for you T5HO setup?

nice Pismo, the 5.5s don't last long before upgraded it seems

i would have kept it, but other things are in the werks for that tank.....



that, and the fact that i didnt plan for space properly in the 5.5....this is MUCH better
(and its pretier too!)

so, i fully moved the tank over and scaped everything....the tank is totally viewable from all sides, and has enuf clearance to clean all of the glass....

livestock is openin' back up and 'salespitch' is one happy clownfish....

FTS FRONT.....



FTS BACK... (My fav.)





Shots from around the front....

First of all I Love your clowns name.

I was thinking sump also but then I thought that was too nice a tank for a sump. It looks awesome! Great planning on the scape. I will have to remember that when its time to upgrade.

P.S. is 'salespitch' ok after all that mike's?
