Getting a New Fish

They haven't paired up yet and they're both hiding. I did snap a couple pics....or tried to.

 

it took mine a day or two to find each other, it happened once the pistol started some serious burrowing - next morning i woke up to see the goby situated quite happily at the burrow opening.



it will happen!

 

And some more. This is where the goby is hiding for right now. Once he gets a little more comfy I'm sure he will come out. You can see his spots glowing in the hole, LOL.
We also have a crappy pic of the mandarin again. Let me tell you, getting a good picture of this fish has about the same chance as finding Jimmy Hoffa!!

And the rainbow monti


Please don't mind the mess in some of these. it's feedng time and I still haven't put the tank back together fully from "Operation Neutralize Tang 2010."

Last pic you can see one of my fatty turbos. Again, don't mind the wires and the heater out of place, LMAO!!!! TigerMike can tell you how big that bad boy is sitting on the side of that frag rack as he's the one that made the rack!


And when the heck is this poo green coralline going to start turning pink and purple?!?! I can't stand the green coralline. ZERO GHA and still have a green tank!

 

Woke up this morning to cloudy water. Maybe just a bacteria bloom but at 0700, having to be at work by 0800 with an hours commute I couldn't check everything out before I left. We'll see what's going on when I get home...

 

So now it's bugging me. I'm thinking bacterial bloom maybe from moving rocks around and such trying to get the tang out. Inhabitants were looking good when I left so hopefully that keeps up through the day

 

Best of wishes for you! Im sure everything will pull through. Having to seriously be in two places at the same time sucks good luck!

 

Bacterial blooms usually aren't a problem. Corals can go one day without light, and filter feeders will not mind having that in the water at all lol.

 

nice job, doing the right thing and getting the tang to a biiger tank and +1 for saving it.

 

Thanks guys

Yeah it's either bacterial or just sand kicking up I would guess. Not too many other things to cause cloudy water in the system......either one is manageable!

 

Finally got a pic of him!! here you guys go! Yes, it is upside down.


On a wierd note - Came home and rainbow monti I'm guessing has RTN, most of the polyps are just......gone. Nothing in the tank that would eat it.
Peach monti is doing just fine......
