qwiksilver711 Posted April 4, 2009 Author Share Posted April 4, 2009 i'm doing a water test now, and then i'm off to the LFS (its an hour drive from me!) anyway, they may not have firefishes, so anybody got any other suggestions for first fish for me to possibly get? Link to comment
qwiksilver711 Posted April 4, 2009 Author Share Posted April 4, 2009 update... got 2 more astreas, and a few bumblebee snails. one helfrich firefish (which immediately hid, and haven't seen him since) and one skunk cleaner shrimp oh, I'm having a problem with hair algae... would now be a good time to install my protien skimmer? edit: dont drink and spell... use firefox instead Link to comment
marinebiologist Posted April 5, 2009 Share Posted April 5, 2009 yay!!!!!!!!!!!!!! firefish is in. thanks for the pics quicksilver Link to comment
Psychosis Posted April 5, 2009 Share Posted April 5, 2009 I was under the imptession bumblee bee snails weren't reef safe? Everything else looks great any way. Link to comment
qwiksilver711 Posted April 5, 2009 Author Share Posted April 5, 2009 I was under the imptession bumblee bee snails weren't reef safe? Everything else looks great any way. bumblebee snails seem to be like crabs... some say good, and some say bad. if i catch them munchin on corals when i get em, they go bye bye do you guys think the protein skimmer is a good idea?

Nanobuds Posted April 5, 2009 Share Posted April 5, 2009 srry about your grandma congrats on your fish, however that is a purple firefish, not a helfrichi firefish. they are usually worth $120-$150, and i hope the LFS didnt fraud you. but it looks great! can we see an FTS plz. Link to comment

I'll get a FTS later today, i need to clean the glass first. Link to comment
