    Grrr. I think my gBTA ate my pygmy wrasse! Time will tell. We saw it all withdrawn lst night for the first time and I have my suspicions. Unfortunately he can be a secrative fish.

    I wish I knew what direction i want to go. I was always minimal on LPS but now im getting into them hard with chalice corals, but my new favorite is mini maxi's. Id like to get a few cool rainbows but after losing my Tanaka's Wrasse to the BTA im thinking my poor Orchid Dotty will be next. I jsut wish my damn clown would host it to keep everyone else away! Tell me what to do Jerry!

    Haha, I don't know! Mini Maxis seems to be a fading trend with most people I know. Only reason I can think, is that with a bunch of them in a tank, its more likely for them to move around and sting other corals. I would go with a nice colorful Ricordia garden.

    Or, what about some NPS, like a Dendro?

    An island is a good idea.

    Dendros are easy to target feed. The tentacles are very sticky, and they eat very fast. It helps to get a healthy one to start with.

    Crappy cell phone update of my Maxi mini! pretty happy decided just to get the rock as well. My hopes is that it moves off the rock and kills the brown/orange/green mushrooms not my fish!
