You should definitely get one! I don't recall ever seeing a black Friday sale from them.

I was thinking the same thing, "King of the World" shrimp!

Thanks! I actually think this tank looks better without the SPS too :).

Right on :D.

 

Two more pictures from today :)

 

I love this little guy so much. He's my little buddy. He's not the least bit afraid of me anymore. I bet I could pet him if I tried LOL.

love both! i'm really already quite attached

to my YCG. today, he ate some frozen cyclop-eez

pods, so i'm feeling hopeful. from the size of him,

i realize he's close to or is an adult, because when i went to LFS,

i saw some other YCG and they were small--less than

an inch all of them.

 

how long have you had your green clown, gena?

 

also, what kind of crab is that??

That's awesome that he ate for you!!!!! I've had mine about 6 months at least, I think? It's been awhile. The crab is a porcelain anemone crab. They are cool critters too :).

This tank looks amazing!

Thanks, Ash!!!!!

Love the clown goby! Such great personality

Thanks, Sk8!!!!

Great video. Are those blue ochtodes around the RFA in the left-center?

Thanks, Frank!!!! Yep...blue ochtodes. Sometimes I regret putting it in this tank. It's a constant battle with them :lol:. Good thing they're nice looking :).

thanks, gena! so cute, both!

 

now i'm considering a porcelain crab,

and doing some research. i do have the two

sexies, so dunno. and i feel like my tank

is already pretty well lived in with my two goat headed

gobies and sexies. will wait a bit.

 

i did love my pom pom, but i got him way too soon.

so i'll wait. :) for once. ha!

The anemone crabs don't move much and don't add much bioload. I'd get one ;). Mine hangs out on a flower all day long.

Hey, what is going on with this little tank? :)

Hi, Mark..thanks for the bump :flower:.

 

Everyone is doing well in here. Stuff is really growing. The meteor shower killed off the lower branches of my turquoise trumpet coral :angry:. But I love the looks of the meteor shower, so it's not so bad LOL. Still have all the inhabitants....the green clown goby, the masked goby, the neon goby female from my big tank, the spotted anemone shrimp, and the porcelain crab.

 

I've thought about maybe dismantling this tank, but not making any hasty moves just yet. The nanobox light fan died on me so I haven't had it on the tank for a few days now until I can get that fan replaced...cheap fan, I think. I have the Coral Compulsion bulb back on the tank. I actually kinda like the warm pink color better. But not sure how the macro will grow with it. The red macro in here loved the nanobox. It really took off after I put that light on. Oh...the macro is called string of pearls.

 

Here...took a photo for you. It's sort of a hot mess right now. I've been doing water changes, but having been plucking the bubble algae. I need to do that :blush:.

Looks pretty awesome to me! Very natural and lush, which is how your tanks always look. Don't know how you always pull that off so well :)

 

Your photos make me want a porcelain crab!

Your tank still looks awesome as always! You make me want to turn my 10g into a flower garden but I keep reminding myself that I need a hospital/QT. I am looking forward to only doing WCs on 1 system when the baby seahorses get homes.

I agree with everyone else, you're way too hard on yourself. So many people around here, myself included, would love to have a tank that looked like that on it's best day.
