Great question!
I was just at Reefco and their bottles of tiger pods were $25 each.
I bought from BRS last time, and got a batch of their 5280 pods and a thing of Ocean Magik last time, as it was cheaper (and faster) from them then directly from Algae Barn...that was $60.
Word online has...
Couldn't help myself. I think I'm going to roll with these two for a while and then carefully choose the next tenant. Scratches are really coming out in my photos. ;-)
10 years ago you couldn't give away frogspawn...torches seem to be basically the same thing.
Now, they're like the most expensive, coveted coral.
I think thats the only reason I want one. But I'm too cheap...because they're too damn expensive. They're like more predictable anemones or...
I need to research this...I thought that the live rock would also not tolerate copper/medicine/whatever...and pods, if any, would they tolerate medicine?
So...the powder brown tang is, for me, the ultimate saltwater fish...it's the fish i saw that started my journey into the hobby. I always wanted one...but my tanks were always to small.
Now I have this 90, and undoubtedly will go bigger eventually.
BUT...they are notoriously hard to keep...
I was in Reefco today and they had a buttload of inverts. Didn't have the fish I wanted, but the snails and crabs were almost excessive. ;-)
I ordered from Reef Cleaners a few weeks back. I wanted peppermint shrimp, and ended up order them and enough stuff to get free shipping. Everything...
Now to figure out how to feed him. He's pretty timid, and I don't want to go throwing tons of food in the newly established tank.
Any ideas? Tried mysis with a plunger and it just scared him away.
So today I hit 3 pet stores looking for my first fish.
1. Reefco. Love this store, but they didn't have what I'm looking for. No triggers, no grouper, no puffer...just a really pale looking powder brown.
2. Petco in North Plainfield. All they had was clownfish...and sadness.
3. Ocean...
Hey Mark, I'll take the items if they're still available, and can place a deposit directly into your bank account. Could you send me your SSN and bank account number? I'll do it right away! ;)
