Hubby's Surprise For ME! *Pics Added*

Oh I can feel the love in this thread. You are hereby promoted to Fish Mommy.;D

 

HAHA thanks! I changed my name thing =D

 

Naw you didn't, I love hearing about your fish.
My two were put together to be a mated pair at the LFS so they are now usually always together unless the frisky one decides to play with my powerheads. They eat A TON even though it feed small portions. I got my new rock in so I added it and the one almost looked at me "really reallllly?" AND they know when the top comes up they are getting food and the frisky one, yet again, swam up to the turkey baster to get her share first! They are so funny.

Good luck getting rid of the other two fish if you are. Maybe the clown duo will eat more and bond together better with out them around. It is sad to bring them bacdk though My next fish is a goby so the peace will continue to remain.

 

*Update*

Well, its been 1 day short of having the clown duo for a week. They are eating very well, being active and silly as ever. i got up early yesterday morning because I did not feel well and came down to my computer. I turned the main light on and they had to swim to the glass to see what was going on. I turned it off and turned my lap on so they could be at peace but I LOVE their curiosity. They have started to eat flakes like other fish *gasp* I chop the big ones up so its not too big for them and they go for it.
They stick together like glue most of the time unless one gets brave to be pushed away by the powerhead to the otherside of the tank but he or she will always meet back up with its mate. My parameters are now starting to stablize out and my protein skimmer needs a hug. I still can't believe what nastiness it pulls out!!!!!
The last of my rock came in on the 12th from reef cleaners so now I am up to.. 60 or 65 pounds now. I think 65. My water is clear and the back glass of my tank is visable again.

AND I'm itching to get a feather duster this weekend....

 

Good to hear they are doing well. Mine are together again too!

It's funny you mention feather duster because I just picked up a Pink Dwarf Colored FD at a LFS for $5 and its probably the best five bucks I ever spent.

 

Feeding a 100% flake diet will raise fish that are very short on their HUFA's. Additionally, if not properly stored (sealed in the freezer), the fish are going to be low on Vitamin C (and other vitamins) as well. This is a recipe for fish that get sick easily and are less able to fight off infections.

If flake food is your primary source for feeding, you need to be soaking them in a vitamin/HUFA product like Selcon, GVH, Aminoomega, Vita-chem, etc.

 

They aren't going to be on a strick flake diet I have decided that a few days ago. They will have frozen and flake. The frozen has stablized vit c so I'm happier with that. Once I get brave enough I will be making my own food.

 

HAHA no fair! PICS

I forgot what species they have at mine but its SWEET

 

Ask and you shall receive.

 

WOW its amazing I think I'm getting mine on Tuesday when I go out with one of my best friends to get her terrarium for her new frog.
