Lalani Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 Looks awesome, dude! Quote Link to comment
bubbles3660 Posted November 27, 2008 Author Share Posted November 27, 2008 (edited) Looks awesome, dude! Thanks, dude. Your macro shots are great. Wish I had a lens like that for my Nikon. And Khayman, more unsolicited advice: Torches can really stretch out their tentacles. Check this out: You should move it up the rockwork or it will eventually kill everything that it can reach. My canes were 6 inches away and they got nailed. --bubbles Edited December 13, 2008 by bubbles3660 Quote Link to comment

bubbles3660 Posted December 21, 2008 Author Share Posted December 21, 2008 (edited) My favourite tank time occurs when the sunset hits it in the afternoon. The colours really start to pop... Sarco Yet another shot of the clowns --bubbles Edited December 21, 2008 by bubbles3660 Quote Link to comment

Grows like crazy. The condy retreated under the rock after being harrassed by the bubble tip. Both are doing well in their new spots. The bubbletip's colour has changed slightly to pinky/salmon. After initial buyer's regret, I've come to appreciate the condy. It is less aggressive than I expected and likes to stay put. It also retains its lovely violet/purple colour. I still do a fish count every morning though. Concerns: I've had a few aptasia pop up. (Joe's Juice worked well.) I've also had some bubble algae appear but it isn't spreading all that quickly. I know most people think it is a scourge but I find it fascinating to look at. The donut is not doing as well as it did in my BC14. I may have to go back to feeding it using the bottle method. --bubbles Why not add some tiny plastic bags and bottles for added realism? Quote Link to comment
