Yeah, well you have a ton of room under your stand. You could add a small mini bar or at least a rum stash. Link to comment
ccapasso Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 sounds fun. i think im gonna ditch the halide and go with the t5 or use the t5 fixture to make a led fixture Depending on what I do with my next build, I have an LED light that I purchased from someone here that I may not end up using. If I don't use it, we may be able to work something out . you two might be right ill see if the lfs can get them. id hate to get them in the mail The usual place had a lot of clowns. They are babies they keep in their sump. Not sure about pairs though. Also, last time I was at Aqua-Tech, they did have clowns too, and I believe maybe a pair as well. Link to comment

ccapasso Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 haha i wish. the lfs that i went to had them for 24.99 That is about average from the 3 LFS I've seen around us. You want me to check with Saltycritters? They usually have them in stock and usually they are decent size ones too. Link to comment

JoelRHale Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 Do want. I wanted these guys in the first place with my damsel stocking but didn't want to order them. Now I'm just sticking with the three amigos I have. Link to comment
JR! Posted April 9, 2012 Author Share Posted April 9, 2012 they are much better under the light i have then the lfs. both of them are eating well already. Link to comment
ccapasso Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 Noooo...Not damsels!!!!!!! Evil evil fish! Actually, I have one damsel now. I had 3 but one ate one of the others and the one that did the eating got sold back to a LFS. My Talbots is about 3-4" now in the 55g. G'luck with yours. Hopefully they aren't too evil. I'll check with Saltycritters and let ya know on the shrimp. Link to comment
