    I have a Strawberry Psuedochromis that resides in my refugium. When my water is at the high water mark there is about 1/8" flow over the baffle and a 1" gap on the bottom of the next baffle that makes up the return chamber.

    The SP will jump the first baffle and then swim down and under the next baffle and hang out with the Mag 7. At feeding time when I add water to the refugium, it swims back and jumps back over the baffle to join the Sleepr Banded Gobis for dinner.

    Now let's hear your fish tales!

    My tang loves to be photographed! Everytime I get the camera out, it gets in the way!!! Has to be in all the photos! It will hang out in front until I put the camera away, then it goes back to business cleaning the tank! ;D

    This is freshwater but my Midas cichilds enjoys looking at fish magizine. If you show him pics of other fish he seems curious. If you show him pictures of other Midas cichlids go nuts!!! Biting at the glass, splashing water, and puffing him self up. Needless to say he has the tank to himself. This is also the fish you can pet when he is in a good mood ;D
