    got my gumdrop coral croucher yesterday. I ended up having my mom acclimate him since i was at work and she said there was a hole in the bag and was loosing water, im thinking he may have popped it himself.

    I havent seen him since late last night when the lights were off, i was able to et a quick pic of him, he's such an odd fish, he doesnt swim but scoots really weird across the sand. i fed this moning and he didnt come out, i have been looking through the rocks to see if i can find him, no luck, i hope he is alive and just adjusting, and i hope that he's not a night time only fish because i want to see him during the day

    here's a quick pic that i was able to get of him last night

    it's been a good week :D
    my gumdrop coral croucher came out of hiding, took him an entire week he hid in the clove polyps for a few days and just moved into the birdsnest, got a few shots, he needs a name now :D I also just fed him for the first time and he ate a few pieces, he will need to be spot fed, he's currently bouncing around in the birdsnest, soo cute!

    i also got a Lemmonpeel Smokey hybrid angelfish off of DD and i know all the risks that comes with this fish :D

    Yay!
    So cute...maybe it'll be OK with it since the birdsnest has a fish inhabitant now.
