Felicia Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 Your clownfish and Helfrich apparently have the hots for each other. My firefish moved into my YWG's home and they were such a cute couple until the YWG left her for the candy stripe pistol shrimp Link to comment
ScubaEthan Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 Hmm...I think my Female clown and Helfrich are just the opposite of gena's....they're like best friends, vibrating on each other lol..its kinda weird lol Reefer porn? Link to comment
Deckoz2302 Posted February 2, 2012 Author Share Posted February 2, 2012 speaking of that, the firefish has been going into the pistol/suntail's burrow to hide from the assessor if he tries to nip during feeding(feed twice today). Its pretty cool, no one is aggressive toward the assessor, but the female clown and suntail definitely stand in between the two. Suntail won't let assessor into burrow, and the female clown just swims in between the two like a mediator. Very interesting interactions going on right now. The Female clown stays at the lower end of the water column rubbing with the helfrich, while the male stays up toward the surface/vortech at night. Depending on how the next couple weeks go if the assessor doesn't give up his territorial tendencies then I may trap him & give him away and replace him with a small blue macnelli assessor w/o teritory. But I really hope it doesn't come to that. I really love the assessor & this one's personality. Link to comment
ScubaEthan Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 Wish I could grab some popcorn and sit in front of your tank. Link to comment
JoelRHale Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 Fwiw, shaking also to show dominance. Cichlids do the same thing, it's pretty neat. Link to comment
Spirofucci Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 Wish I could grab some popcorn and sit in front of your tank. I agree! Link to comment
Deckoz2302 Posted February 2, 2012 Author Share Posted February 2, 2012 Wish I could grab some popcorn and sit in front of your tank. Brit and I do all the time! Its either popcorn or some of brits baked goodies. Lol..normally there's a glass piece with goods involved or liquor so being intoxicated watching and watching a reef tank is awesome Fwiw, shaking also to show dominance. Cichlids do the same thing, it's pretty neat. Forgot about that....maybe the female clown and helfrich are gonna start some bondage domination w/ the other fish...how naughty haha I agree! Me too haha me too...I just can't get enough of my tank sometimes - I live for the weekends when I can relax and waste my day away watching the tank Link to comment
brad908 Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 I think all those mp10's are causing trouble, you should sell me one Link to comment
Deckoz2302 Posted February 2, 2012 Author Share Posted February 2, 2012 Hahahaha....the classic you have to many mp10s...lol I need all 3 to utilize the full effect of tidal swell and nutrient transport... Link to comment
JoelRHale Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 Cool talk, but you're probably going to have a lot of dead spots with that flow/scape set up. You need at least 4 mp10's for a tank that size. Link to comment
Deckoz2302 Posted February 2, 2012 Author Share Posted February 2, 2012 Lol I love that post joel!...watch ima get an mp10 for the frag & mantis/mangrove tank too ,when I get around to it Link to comment
JoelRHale Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 And I'll be there to tell you one isn't enough Link to comment
Deckoz2302 Posted February 2, 2012 Author Share Posted February 2, 2012 Maybe I should get some mp60s.....also did you know mp10s put out 25% more flow then they are advertised at? Lol Link to comment
JoelRHale Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 Yeah I'd read that. I'm on the bubble if I want 2 MP40's for the 75 or just hide a pond pump in the scape and have like 10 outlets for it. Link to comment
Deckoz2302 Posted February 2, 2012 Author Share Posted February 2, 2012 I vote pond pump w/pwm surge box - cheaper I mean for a larger system anyway..nah id probably do vortechs upto 300gallon...then id do pond w/ surge. Link to comment
gena Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 My firefish has been extra scared and skittish around my clown lately. Seems to be the case ever since the clown has taken to hanging out on the firefish's side of the tank, during the day. Oh well Link to comment
Deckoz2302 Posted February 2, 2012 Author Share Posted February 2, 2012 Poor firefishy :/ Link to comment
ScubaEthan Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 You know you're a reefer when your workout is hauling water around. I actually considered going back up and down the stairs a few times for the extra exercise. Brit and I do all the time! Its either popcorn or some of brits baked goodies. Lol..normally there's a glass piece with goods involved or liquor so being intoxicated watching and watching a reef tank is awesome Wish I could get my girlfriend more into it. I just bore her to death with my ramblings of how everything works, eats, and poops Forgot about that....maybe the female clown and helfrich are gonna start some bondage domination w/ the other fish...how naughty haha Make that two bags of popcorn.... or if Britt would share some baked goods How does a mandarin look after the glass piece????

Deckoz2302 Posted February 2, 2012 Author Share Posted February 2, 2012 Mandarin looks like I wanna kiss it and blow in it like a mouth made queef to make him fat hahaha... Ethan give her time...she'll come around hopefully..just make it pretty and add some pink and it'll only be a matter of time Link to comment
metrokat Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 Wish I could get my girlfriend more into it. I just bore her to death with my ramblings of how everything works, eats, and poops focus your ramblings on colors, and how some of the coral glow in moonlights. That should be a good start.
