Nice little gorg! My frag grew to twice the size (is around 7 inches tall now) in a month and a half

Crazy how fast they grow!!

Well damn nothing good to update.. pretty shitty reefing week.. had some white bugs on one of my torches so I dipped it... put it back in on a frag rack.. the flow and being so close to the glass ripped the flesh off.. long story short lost one of my favorite pieces... then I had a wrasse that terrorized my clown so bad that the clown wouldnt leave my other torch coral..  stinking clown hosted that one to death.. it wasnt any special torch but i had it for a couple years so I'm super bummed.. I decided that the snail murdering bully wrasse had to go.. and that damn clown too.. on a bright note I was actually able to catch them then rehome them..

 

 

Anyways a couple of bare photos😊

Lol I know I know, but that means I have to clean the skimmer and the return pump.. I was trying to make it a year then do it hahaha... it will be about 11 months so I guess that's close enough 😅

So now that the dang wrasse is gone I was thinking I should get a shrimp.. I always love those guys , but I'm it sure what to get.. I want one that will be out and about , so is my only option a cleaner shrimp??? Also does anyone gave a shrimp that doesn't steal food from their corals all the time🤣

 

Come on folks what shrimp do you suggest??🤔

Cleaner shrimp will definitely take chunks of food from corals. Heck, they’ll take chunks of food from your hands!

Lol. Kinda figured every shrimp will be a food thief. I'm hoping I can keep them at bay with more food to give the corals enough time to suck down the mysis .. 

 

What's your opinion in shrimp? Yea or nay? Have a favorite shrimp?

I love my blood red (Scarlett) fire shrimp. He’s probably in the same family as a cleaner- same body build and basically same personality but he doesn’t clean and loves to take a whole armful of food soon as it drops. The cleaners are funny too. 

 

The CBS doesn’t do much for me but hang and look threatening. 

 

The harlequin is cute but not too active yet. Pistols show up while burrowing. I haven’t tried any others, so I can’t speak to the sexy or anemone shrimps. But I really have found more entertainment with the blood red or cleaner

Well mine doesn’t really have a true cave to hide in so he hangs upside down on the rock at the back of the lagoon. He advances into the sand when he sees the pellets or Brine come out. I think he’s a cool shrimp. Lots of personality.

I have a peppermint shrimp but it is rarely seen...... so that’s no fun.
