    sorry for the sporadic updates!the shrimp is a male, unsure of the species but i believe it to be a G. Smithii due to the purple meral spot, but there are other species that also have the purple meral spot so i am unsure exactly. Davy is his name, and hes a straight up assassin!just ordered some new corals, and 20 hermits, to put into the Locker so pics will be coming within the next day or two

    Wow the tank is really coloring up nicely! That must be one happy shrimp! Can you post a pic of your HOB fuge? I would love to see ideas as I thought about doing something similar in my sons room!

    Davy rarely lets me actually catch him on video while assaulting something, if i get too close he stops and stares at me until i leave...then continues smashing.ill be sure to post more soon
