CHYEAH BONGO!!! omgomgomg.gif omgomgomg.gif omgomgomg.gif

Nice!!!! cool.gif
Bongo Shrimp
Me too thanks!

They are so cool and inquisitive. While they were in the breeder net, they would look up at me like, "who are you?".

So so cool!
animalmaster6
I can't wait to see them in the tank!

Nice ass fish dude. Beats my helfrichi pair by far.
yoshii
Wow! They look fat and healthy too smile.gif

OMG those look amazing!
Bongo Shrimp
Thanks guys! I am so excited I want to go turn the lights on right now!

No- must... let... ... fishies... rEsT!

BTW I moved my copper cardinal pair into the lagoon tank cause i think they are a bit too boisterous for the candies. Plus I want the Candies to run the tank so they come out and act cool rather than scared.

I've had a bad week. Lost one basslet. Getting another... Wallet yelling at me.

No idea. Fine in the morning then just dead in the afternoon. Really weird cause they are usually pretty hardy fish.

Wow! The sudden loss of a fish like that blows, sorry to hear about it... here's to better health with the next one, fingersx01.gif.
How is the little angel doing? Must be really cool having that fish, do they go through any color changes with maturity?

Oh yeah Tiny is great. I actually moved him to the lagoon tank cause he was nipping at a coral. He is very happy in there with all the macro algae and stuff to pick at. I have to get more pics of him. And yeah he will look more drab as adult.
19jeffro83
Sorry for the loss dude. That's a bummer indeed.
Bongo Shrimp
Did I mention I just got a sweet new Fluval G3 filter for my biocube? It's actually sweet with a built in computer, conductivity and salinity sensor. It also does temp and monitors its own flow. I added 10% volume to my tank and now I have a place to put things like chemipure elite, carbon and whatever else I want. It's actually something that I think will really help down the road.

Screw media baskets...

No I lost them a long time ago from the evil nitrates. They were over 3 years old though so I am confident that they were feeding. I just have to find that exact kind again cause I know they are safe to get.

Wow, lots of expensive but nice goodies in here! But... where are the Bongos?!

I had them for three years in my lagoon tank. Then when my LFS went out of business I didn't get any more.

Nice pair of candys, how much did those cost you? and where? I've been checking on dd all the time recently but they didn't have one for sale either.

Sorry but I don't give out my sources or prices. But DD is a surefire way to find them. There will be more on DD eventually, just a matter of time.

Pic doesn't work for me.

Can you sex the candies so you know you have a m/f pair, or does it not matter?

Thanks Bongo. I know you don't reveal your prices but may I ask was this guy more than $80? I only ask because I'm debating asking the livestock manager at the lfs to try and bring one in for me but not if it's a pricey fish.

If you get the DD update emails you can see it there. wink.gif

Yeah it was over $80 but depending on the wholesaler and LFS the prices can vary. Ask your lfs to find out the price before they order if they can.

Thanks Bongo, I just subscribed so maybe I'll see the next one. I will see if I can get one tracked down for me and go from there. Such a different and beautiful fish!! Can't wait to see pics you take of it.
Bongo Shrimp
Me either. I have to wait extra long to see it though cause I'm going out of town for a week and then my buddy who is holding it for me is going out of town. Two weeks till I see it.
buddythelion
Dang! So you're the one who got him. Someone in the fish forum was asking for an ID on the same exact fish. smile.gif

I saw that.
andrewkw
Do you ever see him? I've never seen mine except when I moved the rock to make sure he's still alive. He did eat cyclopeeze when I dripped him but other then that I have no idea if he's eaten. When I feed the tank he does not come out.

I'm not so sure about the species :

I guess it's possible they grow up and look like that, but it says they're red sea when I know mine is indo. Also mine was 20$ smile.gif

Ok so the situation with the goby is I think he got out of the critter cage he was in while my friend was holding him for me since I was on vacation. It was in a small fuge so we are going to look for him when my friend gets back from his vacation. The only other thing in the fuge is sebastian the flame lobster but I don't think he would be after the little guy.

I moved my red spotted pistol into the reef tank and will be getting him a whitecap goby probably next week.

Also, I have another candy basslet coming in two weeks (one week quarantine at the wholesaler this time).
