kimberbee Posted November 18, 2014 Author Share Posted November 18, 2014 It's just what they do. Haha... Wasn't sure if it meant "this place is awesome!" or "this place sucks!" Thanks! Link to comment
kimberbee Posted November 18, 2014 Author Share Posted November 18, 2014 I can't wait to get home and see how my grumpy little guy is doing! I noticed the last few days that evaporation in my tank is a little high. I'm figuring that's because of the cold, dry weather were starting to get. I closed the back lid this morning before leaving for work, so I'll see how the water level is when I get home. I was thinking about getting a humidifier for the living room, but wondering if that would really have any impact on evaporation in the tank... Link to comment
kimberbee Posted November 20, 2014 Author Share Posted November 20, 2014 Cute little Grumpy Pants (?), Grumpy Gus (?), Grumpelstiltskin (?) has been out and about swimming the last few days. Seems like he's getting comfortable in the tank and with his new buddies.

Pinner Reef Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 Is it bad that this makes me hungry? That looks like one seriously tasty cupcake!! You have no idea how many times that has crossed my mind. Logical me: "You can't eat that." Inner Child: "But it's sooo colorful!" Logical me: "That's so you know it's poisonous" Inner Child: "And SQUISHY!!!" Logical me; "Put the frag down" Link to comment

kimberbee Posted November 20, 2014 Author Share Posted November 20, 2014 super cute kimber! and i think you got lucky--because i've heard those with very shy purple firefish that hide all the time. yours is already out and about! is it eating okay? what are you feeding it? He didn't eat the first day I had him, and only barely ate the second night. He's not used to the turkey baster, so everytime I moved it, even just slightly, he dashed away. Last night he was bolder and definitely ate more, though still not enough. He needs to learn to be competitive with my clowns - they get all up on the baster, and even nip at it to get food out. I did pick up some New Life Spectrum Pellets. And my plan is to mix a few of those in with the spirulina brine I've been feeding. I want to try Larry's Reef Frenzy, but it's a bit of a trip to pick some up... Link to comment

kimberbee Posted November 21, 2014 Author Share Posted November 21, 2014 Everyone is settled in for the night... Blenny is curled up over the return nozzle, my clowns are gently hovering in the back corner, and even the little firefish has claimed a bed-cave in some space between two rocks. I'm really getting into this hobby, and I'm so in love with this little reef habitat I've created for my fish and corals! Link to comment

Grumpleupagus is still unofficial, but it's growing on me! That's the name that BF likes. I like Grumpelstiltskin. BRS had a doorbuster sale on the IM Fusion 40 tanks this morning. $299 for a normally $499 tank. Ouch. That's what I want to upgrade to in the spring. They are out of stock now, which is probably for the best, since I would have had to store it for up to 6 months before I could use it. It's just gonna be hard to swallow paying full price for it later... Link to comment
