in all seriousness, I'm pretty sure jawfish co-habitate anyway.

 

I dunno, they might be married. WHO ARE YOU TO JUDGE

Even if they are, my point remains valid

Be careful if you go that route. I got a "pair" as juvies and one killed the other within a few weeks, they even shared a burrow. The one would never let the other out to eat. Whenever it tried it would be attacked.

Ideally, TEAL- like light teal as possible, and maybe a gold like the ones I linked (not brown!)

As small as possible. like 1-2 inches.

 

What is the price again? I'm thinking two. teal and beige/gold.

this should have been in the other tank thread... since clams are high-light and all and there will never be a clam in this dark tank.

wups.

So all Maximas, one gold two teal? They're around $15 for this batch, a bit more than usual. They are from Vietnam, not australia this time ( don't know if this makes a difference lol)

um, lets just do two- one teal (light as you can find) and a pretty gold. I have a deeper teal/blue right now, and I think odd numbers are nice. =)

damn i'll need to up my calcium dosing.

Okay next time prepare for close ups! Ill be that annoying person that asks for the lighting to be adjusted for pictures :lol:

Sleepless feeding :)

 

Im telling you- sleep is overrated! Just mix your sand bed, wipe the floor under the tank, wash the walls, and clean the stand with a toothbrush.

picked up some "stinky food" from the LFS on the way home today- oyster feast. tried a bit in both tanks to see what opens up. so far, nothing.

 

the jawfish is becoming slightly less shy... thats fun. i sit on the couch in this room and write my papers for my masters program. he peeks at me from behind the sun coral.

 

I should post a picture of the fish room/office. Its pretty cozy.

while all that gets done, might as well clean the cobwebs off the ceiling.
