Islandoftiki Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 Tagging along. Nice setup. Pom Poms are awesome, but mine is pretty reclusive most of the time. However, my cleaner shrimp are the life of the party. Always front and center and come to the front edge of the tank to greet me. Link to comment
