Ok doing a tally on whats in the tank so far for livestock......................

 

Orange Spiny 15.00

Yellow Sea Whip 15.00

Dwarf Cerith 5.00

Ninja Stars 4.50

Cerith Snails 4.00

Yellow Clown Goby 8.00

Blue Chromis 5.00

Q  75.00

Random Zoas from a local shop 20.00

2 polyps of scrambled egg xoas 10.00 from a local reefer.

sympodium coral 10.00

Green Goni 20.00

Random Zoas off the 10.00 dollar rack at the local store.

Random macro from Gulf Coast was 20.00 as I bought a few and just split it between tanks.......so figured half the cost to this tank.

Green Polyp leather that was 10.00 bucks from a local.

Xenia :lol: was out of my 100 so will call it 10.00 hell I wouldn't pay for that shit........I think I got the frag for free anyway.......

Oh and some orange clove polyps that I paid 10.00 for a long time ago and are now grown out.......I ripped them out of my 100 hoping to kill them but no there still in there.......................:angry:

 

So add it all up and well 251.50.......................doesn't look like it to me :lol: maybe I should just blow the budget and add a Jawbreaker.........................or a bounce :lol: 

 

Well took some random shots as my aquaraclip or whatever its called showed up today........I like it.........easier than the safety glasses :lol:
