I request those atomic zoas. :)

 

Is that the JBJ 12 Gallon?

lol Those Atomics are pretty much my fav zoo around besides PH's.

 

My tank isn't a JBJ it's an Eclipse i think. I HATE the cover of this tank soooo much. I'm soo happy i'm getting the 100 Gallon! :)

It looks a little light on Live Rock, how much is in there? Are you using the Eclipse filtration?

I have like 24 LBS. I have a ton in the back.

 

edit: I do use the Eclipses filtration but i really don't expect it to come through.

 

Looks good

 

What do you feed your goby?

thanks!

 

I feed my goby this...

 

Everyday i feed Hikari Dried Brine Shrimp

Everyday i feed Nutrifin Max pellet food (Mainly for Sexy Shrimp)

I switch off between Zooplex and Microvert each day. He seems to eat Zooplex surprisingly

Once a week a give frozen Brine or Mysis (switch off each week) to my corals. My goby kind of likes it. Not nearly as much as Hikari and Nutrifin Max though

That's 24 lbs.? Serious question. In the back of where? I'm confused.

Mybe 24 LBS is a bit much. It's definetly in between 17 and 21 LBS though. I keep a lot of rock in the back of the tank.

What do you think?

This is the picture I'm looking at. When you say in the back of the tank, do you mean in the back of the display tank or do yo you have a fuge/sump I cannot see in the picture? I'm just trying to understand.

lol that's ok.

 

When you look at my tank by the side (like that) or straight in front of it it looks like it has very little.

I don't have a fuge or sump. All i have is the diplay.

good to see your tank AM6.

The high fin and shrimp pair looks great.

 

that fresh water fish looks really scary.

Nvr seen a fish like that before.

thanks!

 

I love my Hi FIn Goby and Shrimp pair.

 

The Dragon Goby is very prehistoric looking. I saw him on liveaquaria and special ordered from my lfs.

Goby/Shrimp pairs are the best!

 

 

Nice man. I didn't know that they pair with pistol shrimp. I thought it was another type of goby that did that. Very cool. You learn something new everyday
