    In case you aren't following my build thread, I wanted to share these photos with everyone.

    Some photos from today. I had some livestock show up from J&L Aquatics out in BC.

    4 Hermits must have found some dead tissue on this new Galaxy Colony:

    A close up of the same colony. Polyps partly extended:

    One of the scarlet hermits:

    Everyone loves a good cleaner shrimp shot lol

    A couple of Red Scooter Dragonets:

    A bit of a close up: These are tough shots, these guys are like 1.5 inches long and like a centimetre in diameter. So tiny haha

    And the pride and joy. We'll find out if he makes it the night. He was so close to dead when I pulled him out of the bag that I didn't even acclimate him. He spent almost an hour in the sand on his side sucking sand. He finally righted himself and went through a few more episodes of near death experience. A few hours later he was swimming around with the Kole tang. Hopefully these aren't the first and only shots I get of him.
