I have a Singapore in my 90 - can't really call it a reef yet though - an aspiring reef maybe.... - I have about 6 frags in there - the montis and staghorn are doing well in spite of the singapore's curiosity but my zoa's have all but disappeared - not sure if the angel's to blame but I’m not...

well, the 6-line went carpet surfing – it happened while I was doing a swap of the QT tank – ironically to give the wrasse more room while it was stuck in there. I don’t know how long it was out because I found it on the ground, just by dumb luck. It couldn’t have been more than about 5...

I can’t pass up on a sale – I guess – Of course I’m still flipping back and forth. Petco has their $1/gallon sale running (where was this when I got the 40b for the sump?) and I thought I would take advantage. I have a setup in my basement for an ATO reservoir and 1-2 QTs Well the thought was...

wow - I REALLY need a better camera (or maybe something other than a cell phone) - those are some blury pictures

not sure how that will go - the backup plan is to move the perc down to my sump/fuge if they really don't get along. I just need to come up with a cover - that will allow for all the tubes and such - eggcrate I guess. Anyway, I'm sure it would be happy enough down there and if I could add the...

And for the last of the updates, I picked up 2 new additions – they are currently in my temp QT (a 10g – my 29g long sprung a leak – I need to wait for some warmer weather to reseal that) A shot of the hippo in it’ The happy family A shot of the anemones after a split and some growth...

Ok – now for some fun stuff. Downbeach donated some montipora to my cause (THANKS!!! Jim) Green-purple rim cap Red/Orange cap And…, orange digitata I’ve seen some signs of growth on the green-purple cap and the digitata. The Red orange cap seems a bit stalled but patience is a...

It’s been a while for an update so here goes – Im splitting this up into 3 posts – not sure if that’s necessary but this will be a lot of pictures to open in one post…. I’ll start with the stand progress (since that’s where I left off more or less) – finally all finished – with the base (I’m...

George - Any signs that I should be looking for - obviously other than the jumping.... (I have that lil tank as tightly sealed as possible - not even losing any evaporation) anyway, the 6-line appears to be eating and water is as stable as can be for a 10g with 2 fish in it - for what it's worth...

...one of these RBTA steering wheel covers What do you guys think?

Thanks George. I'll take that as good news. I'm not really concerned about mating but I do think that would improve his odds if she has kind of a thing for him :)

Anyone ever hear of or see a maroon female pairing with a perc male? ... OR are they unrelated enough that she might leave him alone? I know. Both unlikely. I think he'll be happy with the accommodations in my fuge... he can host in a whole mess of chaeto

Yep... Percula. Damn auto-correct. It's actually quite small compared to the clown in the DT. She's a gold stripe. I guess I thought all the maroons were. This lil guy is about 1.25", maybe less. She's 4"+ Thought was she'd either have a crush on him or crush him. Obviously I'm hoping for the...

Well I took a shot and ended up with 2 fish. So now I have twice the gamble. He threw in a clown that was living in his sump. He said it was a maroon but it doesn't look like one to me - more like a percent. I hoped based on its size at more than 2 years old that it was a male and would pair...

Thanks George - this is starting to sound like way more trouble than it's worth - I guess I'll give it a shot but I don't think I'll be trying more than one shot - A cover's gonna be a challenge - I have a hood for my 10 but the HOB filter I used is so damn big that the cover will never fit - I...

The guy who has this one says it's not at all aggressive - he added a juvi pair of clowns 3 months after the 6 line with no problems and said he had a cleaner shrimp in there that was ok. could be sales fluff but certainly seems more trustworthy than the random kid at the LFS or getting...

Thanks for the heads up mnat - I had done some reading a while ago - it was on the short list of fish I **thought** I wanted. Of course now I am having second thoughts. As of now I have 4 fish in a 90 - a GSMC, a singapore, a hippo tang and a yellow tang. I had planned to add maybe 2-3 more...

also my 30g Qt sprung a leak and I haven't fixed it yet - any reason I can't use a 10g for a single 2-3" fish?

If you go to THR there's another about 1/8 mile from there, just a little further down 413 on the right (THR is on new falls road, just off 413) - the other place is a little hard to spot and it's small but if you're out that way already may be worth a check... Fish Factory 3021 Veterans Hwy...

Guess that might help, 6-line
